Good question. I saw a 997.2 GTS4 at a Ford dealer a couple of years back in Missouri: they had it massively underpriced. Someone snagged a great deal. It was traded in on a Shelby. I doubt it was that unusual: one of the guys I know in PCA here traded in a 2013 loaded C2S in on a used 2011 Tacoma. He wasn't driving it, and wanted something that he wouldn't stress about with rocks flying at him all winter long. I think they sold it off immediately.

Sometimes the best deals are when a brand dealer (non-Porsche) takes a trade. They just want to get a bit of profit if at all possible, and they don't know the market.

Too bad...I love the car! (except late 07 build date, so no update coolant line sealant).
Saw this one as well - was a great build and fit what I’ve been looking for (997.1TT meteor w/ 6MT) - I went to pull the trigger and it had sold within a week to a guy in TN. Feels like the one that got away....

”damage to front” doesnt mean an accident. Could have ripped the nose off on a parking curb. The carfax shows no actual accidents, just damage

Marked-priced low-mile 997 turbo (for a change!) A similar one sold here last spring for $80,500. Looks spotless.

This seems like a very good deal. Too bad it is an automatic.

An accident without much detail, but I think much of that is likely baked into the price already, especially for a DFI C4S with the factory installed P03 carbon bucket seats?




Just to be clear, PDK, not an auto... But yup, it would probably be gone if it was a stick?

No doubt. It’s the cheapest 997.2 C4S I’ve seen at that mileage. Accident isn’t a game killer if you can get documentation that it was fixed properly. And a good PPI to CYA ...

Somebody buy this! If I were in the market for a mid-mileage 4S, I am all over it.
