It's not CPO. The list price is a little higher.

Would need more info... condition of car, overrev history, how many owners, to determine "value".

If one or two owner car (and no indication of someone flipping to get out of it), and if nothing above 3 for overrevs, and very good to excellent condition, I think that is a very fair price for a .2 C2S...

Moneyshift.... It mostly applies to manual cars if you mis-shift into the wrong gear the car will overrev a lot.

The porsche dme dump keeps track of these an assigns a severity to it. I think it's 1-5. Most here think a couple of revs in the 1-2 range are OK, over 3 means the car was abused either accidentally or willingly.

Being a pdk it probably has 0 over revs. (Difficult, but not impossible).

Make sure no accident, and it feels go when you drive it. If it feels good, get it.

Personally I wouldn't be interested in any Porsche with an automatic transmission or without a 6-way power driver's seat but if it's the color and options you want and in good condition then I wouldn't pass it up unless the price was unreasonable. These cars have so many permutations of colors and options that it could take a long time to find another one with exactly what you want. OTOH if you're flexible about that and price is more of the factor then keep on looking.
