1997 993 Turbo from Beverly Hills Porsche
Anyone familiar with this car. Looks like a very clean and very original car with less than 18K miles on the odometer. Only obvious mod is the radio.

It's not a $90K car although in Beverly Hills, who knows, they might get something close. Drivers seat and shift **** look a little worked for an 18K mile car. Carfax & AutoCheck show very limited use by 1st owner in Hawaii, 300 miles/year for 1st 3 years. Then a California car with about 1500 miles to 3000 miles per year since.

$90 is going to be the rate (asking price) for a sub 20,000 mile car. In the 3rd picture, the bottom of the driver's side bumper looks scratched. Hard to tell from the photo.
With about 6-8 hours of concours quality cleaning, that interior will look very minty. It just needs some TLC. Plus, supple leather never photographs very well.

Yup...
However, price point appears similar with what the usual suspects has on the market:

And that would be a good opening offer. I don't think it would sell for $80 but that's a good offer (if a serious buyer) to start the negotiating process. Then, depending out what the seller does, will help you to determine just how motivated of a seller they are.

So seeing samples with 20k miles (+/- 5k miles) with asking prices in the $70k-$90k doesn't appear out of line by comparison
However, I dare say if anyone scoops this up in the $60k-$70k range would be considered a great buy...

Another pet peeve of mine is the lack of floor mats. Are they worn through in 17k? If so, why not toss in a new set? What is the dealer's cost for a set of mats? Another question I would have is the "frunk" carpet. How often has the carpet been in and out of the car to leave it so wrinkled/ill fitted?
When I look at the speedometer, it looks slightly off level. When I had the odometer gear replaced in my car, I agonized over getting the speedometer installed just right. Maybe it's my eye.
I am splitting hairs, but shouldn't a $90k car be pristine?
Are those sub-woofers cut into each side of the rear seats?
For the right price, I would love to have this example in my garage.

And this car will probably sell in the $70k-$90k range?
