Default BaT 4s

04 4s 6speed cab w/o sports exhaust, 43k miles, sells for $34,551 + 5% + shipping. Seems the 4s market is holding up even in this apparent buyers market.

Makes me think I got a hell of a deal on mine based on that C4S that just sold on BaT!

I think BaT is an anomaly, I would be interested to see sales states on pricing outside of that site a few months down the line. I won't complain about cars holding their value but outside of the BaT, there seems to be some good deals popping up outside of there.

I openly admit I overpaid last March when a bought a 21,700 mile 2003 4s coupe 6 speed with factory sports exhaust. A year later I’m beginning to think i was just ahead of the curve.

BaT is so whacky. Seems everyone overpays for everything. I was thinking 25-27 for the silver 4S before the engine surprise. Once that broke I’m thinking this sale is dead. I was wrong. Beautiful car.

Just a guess but maybe more people stuck at home as summer approaches equals more potential buyers watching BaT which equals better results.

BaT offers enough data points on 996s that its hard to constantly write results off as outliers.

I was looking at this one the last 20 mins, it was crazy to me how two guys raised the price by over $5k in 5 minutes. And this car is questionable, engine swap with no information on the replacement engine, 8 owners, no ECM info like over revs, etc. and a few other issues. I know I had done well when I got my 4S a year or so ago, but after seen some of these auctions, I think I did very well.

But crap, like the car too much to sell her.

Just a guesstimate but it seems the 4S with 100k are 25k on BaT. As you deduct 10k, you can add 1k. Add 10k, take off 1,000 down to 22k. Top, perfect low mile 30k or low ones max out around 33-37. I was thinking that before and today sort of reconfirmed. convertible/tip reduce 1-2k. Non silver help the price though silver is my favorite color.
Agree/disagree?

Have to admit...I overpaid for my C4S on BAT almost a year ago....$32k with 99k miles.
But only by a few k and it was loaded and came with HREs as well as the OEMs.
I love the car and have no buyers remorse because of a few extra $$$$......but I was also blinded by beauty.

If you don't have buyers remorse than all sounds good to me!

I picked up an 04' C4S in Arctic Silver, 6spd with 42,540 miles and a window sticker of $99,450. Has real good options, 4 previous owners, IMS replaced and is in great shape for $28,750. The body and interior are solid with some scratches/bumps/nicks, but I feel like I got a hell of a deal.

Just patiently waiting for the DMV to open...

I thought i over paid a little bit as well. $33k, but with 15k miles, Tubi exhaust, H&R springs, numeric shifter, GT3 Bucket seats, new tires...feeling good now, but i want to sell and get a TT lol. Its just such a nice car to get rid of. Grass isn't always greener on the other side!! lol
