Default WTB: 2005-2006 997

I'm looking for an 2005-2006 997 in the 35-40K dollar range. I prefer a black ext, beige int, but I'm open to other color schemes.

Anybody?

Depends which variant you are searching for; i.e., C2, C2S, C4S, Cab, Coupe, Targa, TT. your price range more than likely falls in the C2 coupe range, but you may find a well priced C4, or Cab as well.

Have you tried our current classifieds, autotrader, cars.com, ebay, Porsche.com ? The market seems pretty plenty for the 05-08 Pcars (997.1). GL in your search.

You will find a 997 in that price range, however, it will have a lot of miles on it.

I might sell my absolutely pristine red/black 05 C2 coupe with 1800 miles. It will be in the mid $50's though. My turbo S came in.

Is that a bad thing?

This is my first post here ... I just picked up an Seal Grey '05 997 CPO'd with 25k mi. for $42. It won't take long for a clean C2 977 to find you in that $$ range.

As a first time Porsche owner, I'm loving the 997 C2!

No, not a bad thing at all. The 997 has been pretty bulletproof as it reaches
higher miles.

The only bad thing about miles on these cars is they really accelerate depreciation.

Of course, if you buy one with higher miles, the depreciation has already set in.
