Thanks for the reply mdrobc1213,
The dealership is selling it for $65K. I told them I would think about it. I'm not sure what to counter it with.. Prices are all over the place. What would be a good counter so not to insult? KBB shows them at $57K-$69K and prices out there for '08C4S I've seen have gone from $56K-$87K....
What would be a a good price to counter?

I were you but otherwise would offer around $70k at most

65 sounds awesome to me. Way better than a 2009 (a 1 year old car) for 90
good luck

You need to get a DME readout of the over rev readings. There are 6 ranges. Over revs in the first 3 ranges are normally not an issue. Over revs in ranges 4 through 6 can be an indicator of a missed downshift (a.k.a. "money shift") which could have damaged the engine parts, and could void warranty because of abuse.
Is it a CPO car? If not, ask them why it is not. Then ask them if it can be covered under the CPO warranty. CPO normally adds $2,000 to $2,500 to the price and gives you an additional 2 years and an additional 50K miles to the factory warranty.
I would offer $62K to $64K including CPO warranty.

Thank you all for your help. I ended up buying it for $64K including shipping form Arizona to Fresno CA. I knew I was going to buy this car the minute I saw it online last week. It was listed as an "S" but was a "4S" from a BMW dealership. It is a late '08 so warranty till 2013. I didn't do a DME readout as he had another buyer (not sure if it was true but when I called the receptionist called me by another name thinking I was the other interested party) so I just pulled the trigger. THANK YOU ALL

Just BEAUTIFUL. Love the deviating black carpets. I also have the two-tone black/beige interior and wish it had the black carpets. Looks very European an unique. Congrats on the purchase AND the price ! I paid $66 K for my 2007 C4S last August from a dealer in Colorado and thought then that I got a hell of a deal as the car only had 9K miles. The car's original MSRP was $106K. It was everything I wanted in a 997 : color, options, price so I went for it in a big way. I sold my 2001 Boxster S that I purchased new to a friend living near Sun Valley that I had met in Germany in 2004 while on a Porsche factory tour and trip through Austria. He had said that if ever I wanted to sell the Boxster to let him know. I did and he bought nearly 5 years later !
