Default Fair price?

What do you all think is a fair price to pay for this car. 2009 C2 Coupe. Manual. 23K miles. 1 owner, Excellent condition, no accidents, good maintenance history. Power comfort seats, heated seats, sport chrono plus, Nav, High end sound, 19 inch wheels?

Private deal. Guards Red. All options are listed. Assume clean PPI and DME.

Probably high 40s, maybe 50 to the right buyer. But at the end of the day what matters most is what it's worth to you. Similar C2S would probably bring mid to high 50s.

I was about to state ~ that range but clearly from EG997C 2's avatar you have found your expert opinion.

No expert by any means, just observations since I purchased mine last summer. Manual cars seem to be on the rise overall over the last year. At the same time you have a lot of dealers that are buying up these same cars and marking them up 10K. Not that uncommon to see low mileage 997.2 MT S cars with astronomical asking prices in the mid to high 60s and even 70s. We'll see how this plays out over the next few years.

Yeah high $40s sounds about right to me, maybe low $50s.

As a comparison, I bought a base 2010 Carrera about a month ago. 28k miles, manual sport seats, pasm, sport chrono, nav, 19" wheels, bose from a dealer for $51k.

Thanks man very helpful info. Are you happy with your 997.2 C2? Has the horsepower/torque been sufficient?

Yes, I love it. I think power/weight ratio, gearing, handling are all great. I actually got rid of my 760rwhp Hellcat for the car as I found that I have more fun in vehicles with less/more usable power.
