I'm seriously looking for one as well... Would prefer black, but open to other (non-silver) colors. These things are selling so damn quick lately.
This white one keeps getting re-listed and looks super clean. He's unwilling to come down on price:

Sold my WB which was a mistake.
Mine went for 6 figures.
Not looking to pay the premium to get back into one.
-------
As an aside, I looked at a 97 993 being sold by a Porsche Dealer.
1 owner car with recent clutch, suspension, and brakes.
Negotiated to $72K (enclosed shipping to me included).
Photos looked great.
Carfax clean.
My initial PPI was done by myself via Face time with the salesperson.
Here's what I saw:
Paint meter demonstrated a respray of the fenders and hood - not a good color match to the rest of the car.
Someone attempted to repair the driver check strap - over welded and improperly, now failing again as evidenced by rust @ the repair and clicking.
Evidence of rust in the front and rear window channels.
The car was then ceramic coated with these issues.
My thoughts were - not for me, plus I doubt the original owner took very good care of the car.
The dealer even offered to fly me out of state to look at the car and reimburse me for a independent PPI if I didn't buy the car, I passed.
People at Porsche dealerships are often not knowledgeable about these car.

Yes, I passed.
They had the car listed for about 2 weeks, so I guess several people passed.
After I backed out of the deal, they sold it the next day.
There was a 28K mile 96 C4 that sold 1 hour after it was listed in Ohio for $73K missed that one.
The market is a bit crazy- a dealer I just spoke with sold an 87 Targa with @ 40K miles for $90K. Personally, I would want a Targa - the roof is too much of a ticking time bomb based on its age.
Yea - do miss my car - 30K not hit car with all the right subtle mods and spotless even in the undercarriage.
I had it 10 years and its 100% sorted.
A dealer would list that car a $150K+ now

May be challenging to not "pay the premium to get back into one", after accepting the premium when sold.
Not many people sell these for KBB, though you may get lucky. I just bought a S4 Avant, 3 pedal car, that the seller priced per KBB.

I am also looking...I haven't seen any that are selling so "quick" unless really priced right.There was a nice black on for $59k in Washington state at Park Place with hardback seats. That sold fast! There was a nice white driver quality car on FB marketplace for over a month under $60k, then finally sold online auction for $63k. . I've also noticed as I search there are many more wide body cars listed for sale then narrow bodies which is crazy since they are really low production numbers. Good luck on your searches!
This one is absolutely perfect for me, but he wont come down at all. https://albuquerque.craigslist.org/c...330349153.html

I messed up and passed on one for $52K in Los Angeles 10 days ago. Black/black 6-speed, in great condition with 100k miles... Havent seen any under $60k since, or I would have picked it up...

Yea, the one in Albuquerque is Nice! And Yes, I saw that one in LA. I pass on going to see it, since it spent it whole life in NJ. Be patient, I think you’ll hit one in $55-$60k. I pass on a couple in the month or two, but you got to be READY and Quick went it show up.
