That is definitely "wife spec"! Steep price.

Not my first choice but great color combo....and sale pending on the first day. The market decided that one out rather quickly. Folks, the 997 is such a sweet spot price wise. A Pcar buyer has a couple of 911 options: A) An older air cooled car without modern conveniences (which is probable well north of $40k), B) 991+ with a buy in price of $60k plus. Or C) A 997 which is what the 996 should have been for $30-$55k used.

I think that price is about right, especially if it's all sorted like the OP claims. Build sheet if a little blah, though.

How do you view the price as steep? Seems a very fair price and since it is now "sale pending", the market has spoken.

It's an automatic, convertible with average miles. S is the only thing going for it, but no PASM.

I see the PASM button - button with the shock absorber. Price seems reasonable for a well sorted C2S.

All S have PASM. He must have meant no SC.

Nice interior with full leather should count for something.
