That one is not as nice as it looks at a first glance,

For example, the pccb discs are not even on the car.

You can mock his pricing but if you do your research he sells his cars, must be a reason.
If you, or anyone for that matter feels that it is a good buy, then go for it. Personally, I do not find value in that car over 55k let alone over 80k. Buyers dictate the market, to me this is a car to drive, not to collect.

Wow, that is a unicorn! That was my #1 color combo choice back in 2015 when I was hunting for my 996tt. All that I ever found in the US in cobalt had gray interior. I found one or two in the UK during the 5 months long search. I came to the conclusion that they must not have sold that color combo in the US in the 996tt.



I found a silver car with black interior in NYC that had been repainted after a bad keying incident to a BMW color (Atlantis Blue) that was similar to cobalt. It also had some other significant mods (997 front bumper cover and seats) that I was on the fence about, despite the fantastic color combo. My guards red car popped up (also in NYC) while I was trying to work with the repainted car seller, and I had to move on the red car quickly or risk losing it. So, I gave up on the cobalt over black search.

If anyone might be interested in that blue car at Luxsport, let it be known that they have a very very bad reputation. Lots of reports on Pelican, to which they responded with a lawyer threatening the website if they didn't take the reviews down.

There are several threads about bad experiences with them on rennlist as well.

Well maybe your friendly Canadian dealer to the North might be a better option with this 2004 Speed Yellow specimen, just under 60K miles and some nice options.
Once again, no affiliation....other than being Canadian, eh?

Looks nice and clean, but $67k US for a 60k mile car, it seems fairly priced to me, not quite a bargain.

The interest rates on those loans, though, dear Lord! 7% for a 5 year loan!
