Default pricing advice
I'm looking at adding a 02-03 996 to my garage.

A dealer has a CPO'ed 03 with 30k miles and he wants $33,000 for it.

Standard options...PSM, leather, heated seats, sports exhaust

they won't go any lower.

Is this reasonable?

thanks

I think that is a good price, especially with CPO.

Sounds like a great price for a CPO'd 2003. What color and what wheels? It's not a Tip is it?

If the interior is blue it will limit the number of potential buyers but the dark blue interior (almost black) is nice IMO. I think it still sounds like a good buy.

30k for 33k miles with a CPO is well within acceptable limits.

This a C2 or C4S? Doesn't sound like a bad deal b/c of the CPO.

maybe a dumb question - does the CPO add on when/if you buy it, or was it already CPOd and about to run out?

Sounds like a great deal actually.

These prices make me sick as a 996 owner. Feels like I wouldn't be able to give my '02 away if I needed to sell.

Nice try, Tim! Actually, your Accord is worth more than most 996s these days.
