Solid number for this C4S cab - 62.5k (+ 5% BAT fee) with 26k on the clock and at least four previous owners:

That’s nuts. It previously sold on BAT near market peak for 44.

42% appreciation in 2.5 years

Not sure why that one went so high - doesn't seem all that special.

Two people who really wanted it were in the room at the same time. It feels $5-10k over market value imo.

BaT is so unpredictable. Other than 1 outlyer, this is the most expensive C4S Cab to sell on the site.

For a cab? Seems like $20k over at a minimum.

But you're right, it only takes two.

Hopefully buyer will be very happy regardless.

I don't have to wonder about the seller's happiness .

While the final price was high, I think the higher price than normal makes sense to me. The previous owner spent $20K+ for IMSB, PCCM+, paint correction, PPF, and every single critical maintenance you can think of. The car looked pristine inside and out too.

The headlights that won LeMans. You can laugh, but better buy one while you still can (or two or three..)

Reminds me of C4S cab I looked at locally a few years ago. Similar colors, options, low miles, 6-speed, the whole thing. The seller was an established dealer in higher end vehicles and declared the car to be "investment grade", which I found funny because hey, it's a 996. But I guess if you are going to keep the car long enough, and drive it little enough, eventually it might pay off. Then again no generation of 911 places higher value on the cab than it does the coupe, so there's that.

Delivery miles example with a nice options list in, without a doubt, the best 996 color.

Lovely car, truly pristine, but, not the best interior color. And one has to wonder how those 25-year old gaskets, hoses and rubber suspension parts have held up with so little use. I would definitely prefer a car with 40-50k miles and extensive maintenance in the last five years.

8K+ miles is very low but by no means “delivery” miles

And Graphite Gray is the 2nd least desirable interior color

Nevertheless, gorgeous examples always lead the way
