This is a cab worth buying: https://rennlist.com/forums/993-foru...995-993-a.html

95 with 50k mi for $25k form an RLer. Car has fabspeed exhaust, powder coated das roll bar, cobra milano seats, oem carbon fiber details, Gert Carnewall's RoW M030 w/HD Bilstein kit, and kenesis k18r wheels.

In this economy $35-40k buys you a sub 50k mi WB not a 70k mi cab. Case in point, an RLer recently bought a C4S with 25k mi for $39k. alpi - you got a great deal on your C4...stick with that formula.

I was thinking $32-34k based on your description, the miles, and the current economy.

I'd say $30-32k given the fact that you might have to do a little paint work. Louis ... If you here of any more impeccable C4S cars with 25k miles at $39k please let me know. That is the deal of the new millennium.

Sadly, I think this is just the way these cars are priced now. I'm glad I sold both my C4Ss last year when the market peaked. It's sad to see them loose value like this but everything else is dropping further still. 12 mos ago you couldn't find a 7GT3 for less than $115k. You can buy them now for $80k.

This is the car I referenced above: https://rennlist.com/forums/993-foru...-my-993-a.html

Here is another with 35k mi and an asking price of $42k (asking on the arena one was $41k): https://rennlist.com/forums/993-foru...-1996-c4s.html

Then there's at least two C4Ss with ~100k mi for ~$30k, which makes sense in reference to the above. Sellers can pretend values haven't dropped but it's a buyer's market and they set the price.

If it's had the top end done properly, and the clutch and suspension are done, too, that's a pretty attractive car there around $35k.
I just sold my '97 Cab w/ 74k mi. and it didn't burn practically any oil between 2,500 mi. oil changes. If I filled it half way between the add/full mark at change it would be down to about 1/4 mark by the time it was changed again.
