Default Thoughts on current 40th Anniversary model pricing?

I'm seriously close to clsoing the deal on one and was wondering what the current thoughts on pricing would be for one with 12K miles and a fresh 2 yr. CPO?

Thanks!

That sounds great but is a good bit less than what they are asking.

There have been a few with 35K miles in southern Cal, CPO for $59K....if you can find one for $45, you are in luck! Most of the ones listed on autotrader are 55K-65K for 30K +/- mileage.

I don't think a 40th Anniv. (x51 engine, natural leather, Turbo front end ....) can be bought for 45K.
Pioneer Porsche has one CPO for $58,900 with 35K miles. I'd say maybe $55,000 given it has low miles.
I'm just ball parking. I have a 40th anniv. myself and would be quite surprised to see one go for less than 50K, especially from a dealer, but maybe redridge has a better sense of the market.

I recently purchased an 04C2 with 24k and CPO for $53k - optioned with PSM PSE, M030, 18" carrera wheels with new conti's, Bose upgrade, carbon fiber shifter and brake lever, flared rockers, power heated seats, Xenon lighting. I might have paid on the high side but the car is straight and I wouldn't buy with out CPO.

Edmunds shows the 40th with 12k at $67k for CPO. I think mid 50's is a good deal depending on the overall condition. Mine came in about 12% under edmunds and $6k+ under bank when I bought it.

Just my opinion.

Bill - I know that you are looking at a 40th Anniversary car, but I wanted to let you know that my 2004 C2 Coupe is for sale. Here is a link to the listing in the Classified section.

2004 C2 Coupe

PM me is you have any questions.

I bought my 2004 40th 6 months ago with 13,700 miles on the odometer. I paid $60,000 out the door. Part of me is kicking around the idea of selling it. Not sure though. Current mileage is 19,200. Love the car but not the most practical in the world. Didn't really buy it for its towing capacity or storage space. I believe the CPO warranty ends in another 20 months.

Not true. The MSRP was in the mid 90's. At the end of the 2004 model year, the cars sold in the mid 70's.

While we're on this topic, I'm seriously considering selling my car. Think I can sell it in the high 50's with my mods??? I have 38,xxx miles.

Definitely not, unless you sold me your wheels first.
