I just go by the first post in this thread: cars on the market that represent the cream of the crop. Cars that represent the "truly outstanding" and are deserving of recognition.

What a disaster, who would paint an X50 Sunroof Delete

This shows the absolute depth of what 996 hate did to these poor cars

Decades to recover

Many

I am curious about this one. Exported to Germany 🇩🇪 & back? Wonder for what.
Original color was "Seal Grey", but at $46K + a REALLY GOOD paint job + original wheels, isn't this still a great price for an X50, Manual w/sunroof delete?

The seller was in the military & was stationed in Germany so he brought the car with him & back.

They are asking $45,995 and it was bid up to $45,555 makes you wonder why they couldn't work it out being so close?

I wouldn't hate it so much if it was all painted green. The black hood, roofs, etc are also paint

The neon green car is ruined by the repaint

It will take another twenty years, and a $30k paint job to recover that car

Horrendous

"They are asking $45,995 and it was bid up to $45,555 makes you wonder why they couldn't work it out being so close?"

I auctioned a 2016 M4 on C&B. Reserve was $37,500, high bid was $36k. C&B lowered buyer premium and buyer and I agreed to $37k. Next day, buyer's dad called me and said his son could not buy the car...so goes unsold.

Traded it in to a local dealer for $500 more, so no harm no foul

Well I’m glad it worked out for you.

Sounds like the dad gave him a choice between a BMW M4 and middle school soccer camp. I guess he can go back to making comments on BAT.

Default Prime 996TT's going for six figures on BaT

Guards Red 2003 996TT with 28k miles, X50 and XAF just hammered for $101k.

Same buyer/dealer paid $125k (plus BaT fee) two weeks ago for this Speed Yellow 2001 996TT with 14k miles.

Both stunning specimens.

Both those cars were discussed in this thread.

Top quality, desirable optioned cars with lowish miles continue to bring good money and will probably keep going up long term.

We'll have to see how the market holds up. The economy is getting destroyed at the moment.

Yes, it sure is, especially up north.
