If you were within a day's drive of me, I'd consider $50+k today.
The fourth owner issue, as you point out, is the one thing that lowers the value - a little - for me.

Thanks for all your replies and advice. I have such mixed feelings about selling it anyway. Sometimes I wish I had bought a coupe so I could do some DE events. No can do with a can in NJ. Will see what happens now over the next few days. I don't really have to sell, but I know it could get very little use this winter depending on how much it snows. They brine the roads here and sand as well, so it wont see daylight unless there is now snow or a nice heavy rain after. Also , don't want to devalue by selling too cheap. Its such an interesting market. If you never read Rennlist, you would never know.

I agree, seems very low assuming it’s a private sale and not a wholesale to a dealer. If you don’t need to sell now, wait until spring and I think 55 would not be out of line.
Cabs are definitely a smaller market than coupes and our market is small, but it only takes one buyer.

$50k though, to the right buyer, sure.
Higher mileage hurts the value
Some seem to think their 997.2 is going through the roof in value, but it is mostly limited to manual, special coupes like the GTS. Other prices are holding steady, but not going up. I had a 2009 C2S for sale last winter, in a great build, full leather, manual, and only 12,000 miles. It took me 3 months to sell it for $3,500 more than the dealer offered to buy it for. For a lot of people, it is tough to justify paying high 50's for a 997.2 with over 50,000 miles when that is the going price of a 991 C2S manual with that kind of mileage. The people here on this forum that would rather spend $60k on a 997 are in the minority.

Friend of mine saw this car today and called me about it. Really nice build in a pretty rare color combo. Vehicle just hit the market and I think its a very fair price considering the low mileage and options. I am a sucker for adaptive sports seats especially with color matched hard backs. http://www.caseyscars.com/pre-owned-...che-911/297489

Cobalt is a great color; I agree! The price is reasonable, but what sets this car apart is the color, sport seats, and full leather!
I saw a similar one in TX last fall in Atlas Grey with PCCB's, at $37,500. It had 44,000 miles, and sold in about 4 days.

I don't know about mid to high 50's. There was a guy here with a GR C4S cab, manual, and it was for sale all summer. It had 25k miles (?) or so, was marked down to $54k or $55k, and I still don't know if it sold. There is no way any C4S cab with that many miles is going to bring mid to high 50's to an informed buyer.
$50k though, to the right buyer, sure.

You just have to be patient and wait for the right seller that wants to sell; who is looking for more than trade-in but isn't trying to get dealer retail. CA private party sales are great, as they don't get sales tax credit in that state.

Not a great price (IMO) but if you have been waiting for a low-mile Nordic Gold Targa 4S (997.1), here you go:
