Looks reasonably priced based on similar cars with similar mileage on Cars.com. You will need black wheels though to complete their look.
Good luck in the hunt....T

Looks like a decent price. I just picked up a 07 S for 4k less, but had 59k miles on it.

Are you looking for a Tiptronic? I'd try to find a local car with the Tip to make sure you like it. Also this car has an aftermarket stereo, I'd want to know what happened to the PCM unit as those are very expensive to replace.

Looks overpriced to me. Just last week I shared a link in another thread for a CPO 2009 997.2 base model with 28,000 miles for around the same price.

I have found that automatics typically sell for less money.

I agree, pretty basic car, manual seats, tiptronic. Black interior, black exterior, nothing special. I would pay $38 max for that.

m235, cayman, wth? We are on a 997 forum, are we not?

Save up? Forget that. Life's too short.

Anyways, I've gone back and forth on value proposition. I can go 40k 38k up to 65k. Tips or PDKs, no more manuals for me, too lazy.

There is something appealing about base no frills cars, just get in and drive. On the other hand a loaded S model would be great, more acceleration, looks more aggressive. Or maybe a highly optioned car with an elegant cabin and creature comforts. They are all 911s and that the most important part.

A bit on the high side based on what I have seen.

Hey Blue Chip, I have my 2008 silver on black carrera S with 33000 miles for sale at 47699 (including dealer fee, I'm selling it through work at Mercedes Ft Lauderdale). Car is Tiptronic, has Bose and power seats. Clean car fax, never damaged and in excellent condition. I think it's a better deal that what you are looking at currently.

But yeah, the car you're looking at looks good.

From the pics, it looks like the buttons are in good shape and not all worn out like some other examples.
I'm not sure if Sonic negotiates. They are a large auto group with dealerships all over the country.

If you like it, buy it!
