You have an awesome looking C4S. I looked at your car when it was up for sale and wanted to buy it. I snoozed and you bought it. The stiff clutch and RMS leak were my only concerns. Sounds like you got those things fixed and now have a perfect car. I regret not buying it. Congrats!

Some good deals to be had but there is def some uncertainty on pricing. Wide range of prices and mileage only seems to come into play above 100k or below 30k.

I work with a wholesaler who deals in high end cars and these cars can be tough to put a number on for a number of reasons, and they are heavily influenced by condition and mileage. A bad CarFax can kill the value of a car; and while low miles (25,000 or less) can raise the value, high miles (over 50,000) can really hurt it, particularly when you get over 75,000, which as was noted, might be the case here. Rightly or wrongly, a P-car over 75,000 is often considered tired and given the cost of Porsche repairs, nothing but trouble. If you follow dealer prices closely, I think you will find the Porsche dealers tend to be somewhat consistent, but other dealers can be all over the boards.

I just had my 03 Cab professionally appraised last month for insurance and it came back at $38000.00 (Canadian), I know appraisals can go either way but it was more than I thought I was going to be.
