I am going to mention that especially for the hood.

Thank you!!!

It looks to me like that's a fair deal without the add-ons like clear bra, etc.
Sorry to thread jack domer but I must ask. How does that new Boxster compare to your 997? I saw one at my dealership and was quite impressed.

As to the original poster...do the deal. It can be very hard to find a car you like spec'd the way you want without ordering it new as far as these cars are concerned. So when you do find one...if the dealer is reasonable and you have the cash get the best deal you can and pull the trigger. Like some have already alluded to you CAN negotiate yourself OUT of a car pretty easy sometimes without knowing it. GL Keep us updated.

They way I look at it, you have three options.. make them the best offer you're willing to make, then continue to wait to see if they'll sell you the car for that amount, pull the trigger and buy the car, or look elsewhere.

I have a feeling that if you don't buy the car, someone else will. It's a gorgeous 911.. one I'd be proud to own.

Marvin, What's the old saying.... He who hesitates (sp) is lost???? For the small difference between you and the dealer, I'd grab it.. You might not see another one like this..

Happy Holidays..

I filled out the credit Application, they are seeing what they can do, I am already pre-approved at 2.79% for 72 months, they are going to see if they can beat that. I have family over so have to wait until tomorrow or maybe the day after Christmas.

Congrats on your pending purchase. You should check out Pentagon Federal Credit Union (www.penfed.org), they are offering 1.49% for 60 months or 0.99% if the car/dealership is listed under their car buying service. You can become a member by donating $15 to one of their charities.

Its a really nice looking car MM, but only my opinion is that no car is worth gettin into too much debt for.

Keep your head outta the clouds & be safe man.

Hate to hear that this deal does not go through. Too much deliberation on a purchase. If you like it buy it.

I presume that Cheehuae's post is spam yes ??

All four of his posts have no appropriate text and contain offsite links to the same site ?[

Look at the market price analysis chart at the bottom of this link. It looks like the price is right around average based on model/mileage.
