Is 2005 a 997? I think it is.

$55k? Geeez that number is so arbitrary you might as well offer him $45K.
The fact that you're asking if a '05 is a 997 lets us know you have no idea what you're talking about.

I have a lot of cars man. That's how I buy them. I've had a couple 997's too.
If you don't agree then don't sell me your car.

Ziege: I've been on the hunt myself...but for an 'S'. There's a couple of those in FL for about $4K more than the ask on your Red one.. I'm always a fan up buying the 'upgrade' model - never new - because you almost always get the upgrade for little or nothing. I'm not concerned whether one is 2mph faster/slower; I like to plan for the 2-3yrs when I get ready to pass it on to someone else. My little, loaded Boxster-S will be a great deal for someone ..if my wife will let me sell it. Red/Black is a great combo. Good hunting.

Typical Porsche Owners know more about Porsche cars then anyone I've seen.
Having a 'couple of 997's' and not knowing what year they came out. Um, I'm thinking not.
And you're right. I won't sell you ANY car. Cheers.

Buy it, even at 65K that is a very good price for an '05 997S with only 5,000 on the clock. Negotiating with him may just **** him off since his price seems very fair already.

If its not the car/color you want price does not really matter.

There is one here in Scottsdale for $60K but it has 30,000 miles on it.

I live 2 hours from Manheim and I have been there like 50 times. The prices you see there are all wholesale dealer prices. That car at 65K is a wholesale price. Like I said before, It's a great deal. This is a No Brainer, he should buy it or at least someone on this forum should.
