Bought in '11 for $75k w/ 29k miles. Originally sticked at $106k w/ manual trans, full leather, sports chrono, nav, bose upgraded stereo, heated / vented seats, bluetooth phone, extra set of OEM wheels and winter tires, etc.
Currently has 44k miles w/ slight paint wear given it's my daily driver.
What's it worth?
When should I sell to maximize value? Prior to 50k miles?
Have I already taken hit given 991s deliveries are in full swing?
Will people trading out of 911s in to Macan's hurt resale?
A lot of questions -- any and all insight appreciated.
I would think that around 56k-59k would be about right for a private sale asking price. fyi, there is a black 2009 C4S currently selling for 62K on autotrader that has about half the miles you do. Although your mileage is only 44k I do think it's on the higher end for the 2009 cars. As for any specific psychological mileage threshold I do think it is best to sell it prior to going over 50k.
also +1 re over thinking the exact value re a depreciating asset. low-mid 50s likely real world selling price in USA, high 50s low 60s likely real world selling price canada. also dependent of cousre in your exact market and location.

Location (now and first owner) is a factor. Also color combo. But all the above numbers are in the ball park. I know of a '10 C4s locally that is dark blue/grey and has same options as your's plus adaptive sport seats. Has 83k miles (most I've seen on a '10 911) and they want $49k firm. GL
