Does multiple ownership decrease the value of car?

Ascend

Yes

thecutter64

Uh oh, dealer told me only one previous owner . Car fax shows two.

Ascend

sometimes carfax shows more. In case of car being owned by llc and such.

thecutter64

it shows two personal owners. One flipped car after 1 month. Second had it for 11 months.

car had multiple services which makes me wonder. Not many miles but car saw service three times in the first four months . It’s a Porsche CPO with extended warranty so it might be Ok.

not sure if I should bite or run.

You sound kind of anxiety ridden and ambivalent, so maybe a new GT3 really is more your speed. For comparison, a broker sent me info a month ago about a 2023 GT3, wing, PDK, Grey, new...75k ADM. That was before last round of allocations dropped, so I don't know what is out there now or how it is priced, but for the 75k plus you were saying was for used, I would be pushing for new. Take your time and get the right GT3 for you. This is a very inefficient market with wide variation in price for no explicable reason, and many cars exist that are just not well marketed. Cast the net wide and be thorough and maybe you catch a decent deal like ScottyKenneth with that sweet SB one. The buying process has admittedly become a total PITA.

Why?

No, a car can have 5 owners and 500 miles they’re just financial transactions and the car sat in someones garage for what ever reason. You will see many high-end sports cars with several owners, some wanted to flip, bored, or too many cars and moved it. I’ve never paid attention to how many owners vs miles and service more important to me.

Ascend

True. In the end, mileage is king but if conditions are the same, one owner car always commands premium.

Ascend

I guess dating a girl with one ex vs 7 ex's.
Higher chance of things going wrong or manhandled by transport guys with more previous owners.

thanks for confirming my assumptions. Clearly you don’t get laid.

Ascend

hahaha i guess somebody has a wife with tons of exs 😂😂😂 good for you buddy

I prefer one owner. More likely that the car was given TLC, versus a car that was not meant to be a keeper and therefore possibly abused before being quickly passed on to the next guy. But more than one owner is ok for an older car.

‘Not sure I agree with that logic, but a limited car desirable will sale on condition. I’ve seen cars purchased and only driven home and parked for a year …..high class problem impulse buy and car sits/someone makes an offer to take it off your hands. I purchased cars 5 owners one was a Ferrari and you could have eaten off the paint on the car it was so clean …..anyway hope all have a Merry Christmas they’re only cars don’t take them all too serious we’re all blessed

This will go well above MSRP and the next owner will be #5, low miles and is the key not owners. I just posted as I have been looking at these for awhile.
