Default Price Questions on a 2005 Carrera S...
I have an oppotunity to pick up an 05 carrera s for $65K. Limited options, Guards Red on Black, with Sport Chrono and power seats. It has around 5,000 miles.

Just looking for a little feedback on the price.

Thanks!

sounds like a pretty good deal to me. Offer him $55K and let the games begin. See where you end up.

Is 2005 a 997? I think it is.

Yes its a 997... I personally don't love the red, (would rather have silver or gray), but the price is appealing...

Red is the best color.
All the other colors are well...boring.
I picked up this one on Tuesday:

Ooooh... new info. Pay, or wait, for the color you want.

That is definitely HOT!

This is one of those cars where it can wear any color well...

Still looking for any more input on that price. I'll be making a decision tomorrow.

Thanks!

The Guards Red is a great color. I struggled between it and the Cobalt Blue. Went with the CB since my Audi S4 was red.

No, it's a coating from Premier Garage.

Out of curiosity, what was the MSRP on the car?
Based upon the options you mention, I would say that price seems rather good.

Yeah, that was a great game. I'm an SU graduate and that was a pretty sweet season....
