tinroof

Although the bidding has been moribund so far, I just can't imagine this car going for less than $35k. You can't even buy a base 997 for that anymore. I'm still tempted to bottomfish and to bid below Mano (linderpat would appreciate that I'm sure), but I'm going to go closer to where I think it will actually sell, so: tinroof says $39,250. Sorry for crowding in, but there's not a lot of room left between the bidders in that range.

I would go $35k if it were a manual. Nothing really wrong with a Tip but I prefer the joys of driving a manual. Looks like our final list.

Interesting one this time around, lots of watchers but not a lot of action so far. . . Will take a bit of a bidding war to get to my guess but we’ll see. Hope y’all have a great Sunday!

Maybe, but I think you'll win, since also think it's going RNM. Anyway, who knows, it's why we play the game!

GPappy

Did you miss the note about the cutoff time?

tinroof

8k was just commenting; his bid was in well before the cutoff time.

ManoTexas

Might have to go on BaT and post negative comments about tip 911’s and how no purist would buy 911 with one . Before tip owners diss me, I came real close to buying turbo wIth one. And I have PDK which also is also a scum car to purists!

8KaboveMSL

Sorry, commenting but added the list as a courtesy so we don’t have to scroll up. . . Wonder if we should start a comment thread that sits alongside this one. . . I’m fine to comment here and I think this is an awesome opportunity to learn from both the market and you folks, but I don’t want to put anyone out who’s here just for the game. . .

thoughts?

Doug H

Tip is great in turbo. Holds boost better. Not so great at all in NA.

GPappy

No need. I am just not used to someone quoting the list with a comment that quickly. As you can see from the follow on comments, most do not and someone will repost the list every so often to clean it up.

8KaboveMSL

I test drove a beautiful Turbo Tip before buying my NA 6MT, glad the dealer didn’t take my lowball offer on the tip, I think I would have regretted it. Totally personal and totally get that some folks may disagree, which is totally OK. Buy what you want/like, that’s the point of all this, isn’t it?

With the way these guys are blowing their loads in bids more than an hour and a half out to closing, it won’t matter much. Probbably gonna blow past us.
