Valuation Request on 95 Carrera Cabrio
28K miles, guards red, black interior, top is in great condition. The car looks like the day it rolled off the line - all manuals and documentation. Always garaged. No rain. No snow. Never raced. Non-smoke
The owner is a hard core PCA guy and is asking 39.5K for it.
Let me know what you guys think.

I think it's on the high side of the pricing scale, but not really that bad. Have a ppi and if that checks out and you want it, buy it. I know others have paid more for less, and some less for more but you shouldn't worry about that.

32-35k is more in line with reality.
Not apple's to apple's-but similar- I just purchased a 95 Guards Red Cab. Mint condition with a new factory top, Fabspeed exhaust. 993 TT brakes, 18"Speedline wheels, H&R coilovers, RS steering wheel, shifter & handbrake. Mileage is 79k for
29k.
Good Luck

The mileage is relatively low for 13 yo and as discribe sounds like car is very good condition . A $5 k premium for that car is not out of line . But the question you have to ask yourself is ..... what do I want out of this car for ? 1 ) If`s a daily driver or to do some track with it it may is not be best move . Better buy a higher mileage well sorted out car . 2) If for pleasure and show n shine reasons then it is a good deal .
If is a cab n colour combo YOU desire and in your budget like they say " don`t worry be happy " buy the car .
PS . do your homework : PPI and All

I'm going with 33-36k because of mileage but as brief alluded to, if you're going to drive it a lot, you are probably better off getting a higher mileage car at a lower price because you are going to lose a lot of money in depreciation if you run up a ton of miles.

In 8/06 I paid $34.5k for mine with 20,500 miles with the mods as stated below (due to a small puncture, mine did need a new top and headliner - $1,900 installed). If the suspension in your car still needs to be upgraded, I think it is priced a bit too high. PPI, PPI, PPI.

That's all the money
Just from my perusings, and buying a very similar condition 95 cab a few months ago (23K miles), I'd say that is all the money. However, if the tires are fresh, that is worth close to a thousand dollars, if you don't have to ship it, that is worth close to a thousand dollars, and if it's what you want--priceless!
If you offer him 37,500, he sure should take it unless he simply doesn't want to leave any meat on the bone for you.
Good luck!
