I gotta say though - you just can't compare them like that. Maybe that X50 has had the crap driven out of it, was driven by a smoker, or someone with bad B.O. In my car-buying life it has happened LOTS of times where I've had the option of a car that would have been better when new - but have picked the other car.

I think he should just go at $38K but make sure he advertises in Canada. The U.S. economy seems pretty terrible right now with no hope in sight, but in Canada you'll likely get a fast sale (and up here, when people buy a Porsche they pay cash for it - none of this financing nonsense). I would list on sites like craig's, Kijiji (what e Bay classifieds are known as in Canada), and autotrader ca. Make sure you mention in your ad that you welcome Canadian buyers, and you'll be set. Good luck!

In Canada, a mint C4S with good mileage can very easily sell at 38K CAD.

You're right about the Canadian market, they seem to fetch more money up north.

FWIW, there seems to be another 996 X50TT for under $38k on 6speedonline - not good news for people trying to sell their C4S for almost 40k.

You have to be a Rennlist Member to see the Rennlist Member Classifieds, IIRC sale is pending on that particular car.

I bought my 2004 C4s Cab for around $35k a year ago with 60K Miles. I would be suprised if I can get that now...

Perhaps this car is a dog and priced incorrectly for the miles according to the tone of this thread but I think it is close enough to get some offers for an 04

I sold my 2002 C4S a year ago for $38,000 in Vancouver. That was tough, but it had been for sale for 5 months. 68,000 kms, new rubber, brakes, clutch, no IMS fix, in great shape. Imported from the US in June 2005, paid $50k US, exchange rate at the time was 1.12.
