For a car like that, with 19K on the clock, I think the buyer got a very, very good deal.

Eff me! Congrats Groove. I gotta tell you, my enthusiasm for this fun distraction is pretty low right now in light of what I'm seeing in real time elsewhere. Anyway, let's keep this corner clean, and simply enjoy ourselves for what it is.

Congrats groovzilla!

There's some interesting auctions that don't qualify for our game like a 2600 mile ?!?! 2006 C2 that's gavelling right now. Also a 2006 C2S ending tomorrow that's currently at $34,500 but sold on BaT in March 2019 for $36k.

Linder I hear you.. Current news and Covid/Political/Economic climate makes it tough to get huge amount of joy like the old days.
I'm hoping we get this stuff behind us and make it past tense so we can say "remember when" that sh_t happened.

All the best Linder!

Greetings---> Sort of a dry 997 spell on BAT.
Other than the 06 coupe ending in 18 hours, all I see close to 997 is a 2015 991 coupe
I'll keep checking for a 997

The manual S which sold for $40k ($42k with fee) has 82k miles and commenters are saying great deal. I’d say market value but what do I know, I only have 1 win.

The most interesting part of that auction (to me) is that the same car sold for $36k+ fees in March 2019 when it had $1k fewer miles. Market seems to be rising. I doubt I could buy my 997 again for what I paid for it 2 years ago.

Edit: I like the winner's comment:

I feel the same way...I am pretty sure I could not buy my 997 C2S for what I paid for it...of course, if you wait long enough that happens to many Porsches...if you bought an air cooled car in the 90s, same thing.
