Sounds close. I like the options, only thing missing, that I wanted, is full leather. Others my chime in on price.

It that a color combo he really wants? Perfect condition? IMHO both should be true for the $52K asking price.

3Series

Yep, color combo is exactly what he wants. Second is a gray/black.

We are planning to check the car out tonight to look at the condition.

I bought the same car 09 C2 (same options) earlier this year (March 2014) except it's black/tan with 25k miles, single owner, and paid $52k in Chicago and shipped it to Cali.

I think $50-52k is fair for the car your looking at IMO. The only thing I question is why 3 previous owners? Hopefully everything checks out.

Good Luck!

The car was orginally leased in the Atlanta area. Then it was purchased by somone in IL. The last owner owned the car for a year, drove 10-11k miles in it and traded it in. If your'e driving that many miles in the Chicagoland area, I can see how the car will get uncomfortable.

Overall, the car looked good. I was wrong though, the ask is close to $54k which I think is too high for a base car.

Yes, a bit high for a base car. Are you in chicago? If so, prices should be dipping a little as we head into fall/winter.

$54 on a base is more of a California or springtime price.

My only note is that if the asking price is $52k, I would think he could get it for somewhere in the $47-48k range without a whole lot of bargaining pressure. If that doesn't go well, then at least ask for them to throw in or substantially discount a Fidelity or similar high quality 2+ year warranty. These cars are far from cheap to fix.

There's a 2009 C2S at Joe Rizza Porsche for $4k more than the base model you're looking at. I wouldn't pay more than $50k for that car.

3Series

Yes, I saw that car. I think I remember the carfax saying the car was put up for sale 6+months ago. I'm not sure what is wrong with it and its even CPOe'd for that price.

Unfortunately, it is not PDK and that's a requirement for my bud.
