Not necessarily a "deal" on the internet, but I have found they are looking to move cars in South Florida right about now - business is dead.

In anticipation of the storm some dealers of exotics had made arrangements to put their cars on the upper floors of parking garages.

Who's the lucky dog that snagged that black 07 Turbo in NM with 36k miles for $56,900? Was manual and well equipped too from what I could remember.

Oh damn, what's the story behind that? Looks like he forgot to Fred Flintstone

Found this in my GTS search. Personally I think it is overpriced at the $82k they are asking. The first link is the original ad. The second one is where I found the price on eBay. Also has a repossession on the carfax.

For someone looking to get into a 997 Turbo for cheap this could be your car. GT Silver, and has adaptive sport seats with all of the other right options. 72k miles. $62k.

Been in contact with them for awhile (took them 2 weeks to list it, just happened to catch it initially when they listed). DME report is a bit shady, a few 5 and 6 level overrevs. But otherwise looks solid.

Yeah, I am in Ohio (local) so considering stopping by.

Besides the couple of scratches that appear to be on the rear bumper, this is rare. Full leather, alcantara, 6 speed GTS for $69k with under 20k miles. An absolute steal compared to some of the others that are on the market. Or should I say that this one is just realistically or reasonably priced.

Pretty well equipped, I'd say this one is a pretty good deal considering the color and mileage. PCCB kills it for me, but it sure doesn't take away from this deal.

Very nice build.... I also worry about PCCB brakes on higher mileage cars, but with 19K miles, I'd likely be happy with just a visual inspection to make sure they aren't chipped from tire changes.

Wish it was closer, I'd definitely give it a look. Any Rennlisters in Naples?

Also, I sometimes love white on 911's, but it looks bit plain on the GTS. I bet tint would help quite a bit...

Yes, and it says that the rear bumper issue is actually on the Carfax. But the seller (dealer) seems legit, so I wouldn't be as concerned if you got a PPI.

Just saw the carfax on the dealers website... Accident history takes away significantly from the good deal factor IMHO...

I see someone else posted as I was writing this post that the dealer maybe implies that the minor damage shown on the rear bumper is the full extent of the reported collision? I would want to do a fair amount of due diligence, and even if true, the carfax blem affects future sale value.

Thanks for posting the pictures. I also think that the GTS in white can look a bit plain. I think some of that has to do with the black wheels too. But with PCCB that is a very nice build. The PCCB would concern me a lot more, except the fact that you can replace them with steel rotors from what I understand.

Yes, I noticed that they mentioned in the Autotrader ad about the accident, but it was after I posted it. I think it would depend if you could get the accident report. If it said a light 2-5 mph impact, then I wouldn't be as concerned. But selling down the line would be more difficult.
