I'm surprised as well. That car with 33k miles should have sold for a lot more. I don't want to own a red car myself but I certainly don't mind seeing them with other owners. Red is a nice color.

$96k SOLD! Prices are dropping for sure … I don’t know much about Lotec or whatever and this is far from original and goofy wing out back but…. across the board in general cars are coming down in price… imagine the cars on sale next year!

The car referenced is a total unicorn, neither a C4S nor a tt. As 'Able' clearly documented, it has many issues and problems, some significant. Blue interior doesn't appeal to many buyers despite a great exterior color. To generalize re :"The Market" from this car and this sale is not correct.

Anyone notice this one? $143k seems like a kinda soft result for a 33k mile C4S. I guess that’s where the market is or was there something holding that car back?

aaaand its now back on sale for 170k

and CarGurus has it listed as a 'Good Deal' and $22k below market.

Grand Prix Motors is flipping it.

That’s very low. Wouldn't sell my 993 4s at 37 K miles for that money.
Red wouldn't be my choice for a 993, rather for a Carrera 3.2 G-50.

BaT is likely the most widely known/participated market in the states and should be a true indicator of what a car's value is that day. i agree the price seems a bit low for that particular car, but that does not mean that Grand Prix Motors will make the $22k profit being highlighted by CGs or that they will get anything near $170k.

a friend of time had a GR 993 C4S many years ago and i thought it was stunning. hard to believe that the quintessential porsche color is now low on desirability, but i guess it is.

I actually like that red C4S. What do you guys think they would accept…?

I live close to Grand Prix. They are a legitimate dealer, have a large inventory of Porsche's, M.B,'s, Rover;s..Let me know if someone is a serious potential buyer and I'll do a site visit if they wish? I'm no mechanic, but know these cars a bit.
I think their asking price is high.
