Default Looking for 2007 or 2008 Carrera S or 4S any help?

I am looking for a 2007 or 2008 Carrera S or 4S coupe manual Black with beige interior. Local dealers haven't had one in months. Any ideas on west coast where I can look to find one?

I was at the Aston Martin/Bently dealer in Los Gatos CA on Sunday. They had a nice low mile 07 S on the lot - price looked not bad either. But I think it was dark blue with black interior.

web site is losgatosluxurycars.com

David my budget is $60-mid $60. Got to be manual and don't really like the brown versus the sand beige interior. My first 911 so really want to get what I want versus settling for close.

Although I am from akron I am now on the west coast so don't want to pay for shipping and deal with potential east cost weather impact on it.Thks.

Sorry the main reason for posting was to see if any one had any ideas of where to look outside of dealers and autotrader.com. Any other websites or brokers as I am new to buying. I wasn't thinking I could buy anything from anyone in the forum. Sorry if I offended anyone as I was just looking for more resources from any experts that know how to locate specific cars.

Yes, however you need to pay for those resources here. Like anything else, quality things and info come at a price.

Come on doc, $17.00 won't break the bank. If you can't afford that you can't afford a Porsche!

I purchased my 2008 C4S a few months ago. You have to decide if you want CPO or not. If so, then go to the Porsche USA website and you can search all dealers. Found my CPO car with 8000 miles for just a bit more than the budget you set above at a dealer in New Jersey. Link:http://www.porsche.com/usa/pre-owned-vehicles/search/

If CPO is not a requirement, then Porsche finder.net goes out to the web and finds MOST of the cars out there for you. This will find cars at dealers and private listings. Note it does not find Craig's list cars nor cars listed on forums like this one. I used this site extensively during my 1+ year search. Link: http://porschefinder.net/

Good luck.

Try the Porsche website and look for Pre-Owned.
