3/98 911 coupe

I was bidding on the arena red convertible with the hardtop and two keys on PCA market. Anyway my number was $17,500. Sold for $19. I am thinking I’ll wait till fall or winter.

Probably, yes.

Anyone care to try explaining this one! (I know its not a 996)

I asked about 997 prices the other day, it seems like they are up along with everything else. I think it's just a combination of a basically 2020 with nothing going on so people are itching to do something and it's hard to get new cars thus driving used car prices up. I took my aunt to look at MINIs today, she had to order one, no one had anything in stock.

killer photos, good color choices, good options, low miles, no stories…. And two or more people who REALLY wanted this exact car!

Good color choices? Uh, no. Pretty sure like 75% of 996's and 997's are black or silver. That car selling for $70k is truly astonishing.

You can’t go wrong with black unless you hate taking care of it… and there’s a reason they’re mostly those colors. Very few of us are adventurous enough to want something bold and different from a color standpoint (despite how much I prefer fun colors).

It IS astonishing it sold for that IMO, but I was simply saying that it appealed to a wider audience based on pedestrian color choice.

4 people wanted a black 997 Cabriolet with a manual transmission.
3 of those people really wanted it.
2 of those people really REALLY wanted it.
1 person really REALLY R E A L L Y wanted it.

Why so many cabs for sale versus coupes?

If u live in the south a cab is preferred imo. I'm on my third cab and would never consider a hardtop in S Fl. Maybe if it was a dd but even then I'd have to think hard on it.

I drive mine only in the Spring, Summer and Fall in NY, so I'm a cab man too even in the Northeast!

. Due to the shortage of chips production is down and prices are up, the manufacturers don’t have to offer that many incentives, for example Ford is up $2,000 per vehicle, remember that’s an average, but the number one vehicle in America is the F 150. They are down to less than 30 days inventory at dealerships, any way I have a 19 F150 super cab STX that I paid $28,500 for In July 19, today with 17,000 miles I was offered $32,500 on a trade for a $22,700 Jeep Grand Cherokee. According to Ford the chip supply is not going to be fix till sometime next year and they are going to be short on sales by over 250,000 vehicles most of them trucks.

If buyer reads post auction comments he will pbly head for the hills.

Went for $36.2K The sentiment in the comments is that it was a steal going for under $40k, which is crazy to me seeing that it had moderate damage at some point. There are several nice C4S (presumably never wrecked) for sale on this forum for less than $37k. I'm seriously debating tossing mine on there and seeing what it brings. Definitely a sellers market on BAT.
