On thier website they have another 2009 cab with 33,000 miles for $55k, so yes, I think the 80 is 80,000 for this one since it’s listed for $39k. Funny how their website also lists it at just 80.

How about this one? http://jackiecooperbmwmini2015.vinma...px?id=62131824

Under 10k miles, and the carfax has several services to check the exhaust system, replace the console, a 60k mile service at 5,000 miles in 2011... What is going on here?

I love the color combination and spec though. Am I right to be put off by the weird history?

I have no idea if this is a "deal" but WOWWWWW!

2011 Turbo S in Aqua, Aerokit, with full GT3 suspension upgrades and other cool stuff. Looks like HRE FI-R wheels also?

Not a bad price on a C4S PDK.

It is a good look with the turbo II wheels, although I would prefer a polished lip on those personally.

I also like polish rims. I dislike black rims especially on a black car, looks like a giant turd rolling down the street. This car has nice specs though and love the wide hips.

That car has an amazing color combo! Olive Metallic over Cocoa Brown....mmmm.
Price seems in line with the mileage.
Looks like a car that would have been custom ordered and then just used sparingly.

Pricing seems fair for the S and mileage. They have a guarantee so might be good to get it inspected after purchase and if things don't look good from the inspection, get a refund.

It's a pretty basic car, but it is a manual 997.2 S and you don't need a lot of options on these cars to enjoy them. The 997.2 generation Carreras (2009-2012) are pretty robust cars, so it comes down to how well it was maintained, how excellent is the cosmetic condition, any bad paint work, etc.

I'd say $50K is pretty much full boat retail, but if the car is clean and you like the color combo, would make a great first 911.

Carmax offers a pretty good extended warranty as well. Definitely consider it.

Was trying to put a hold on this car but it was gone. Good luck!

For a couple more grand there are 991 you can get. This one is not a manual but I've driven a PDK and it's pretty awesome. Just another option to consider.

I would take the black 997.2 S over that 991.1 non-S ALL DAY.

Has X51, but he is otherwise dreaming with those miles and the reported accident. $47-48k seems reasonable. I think if he had 1/3 the miles and no accident, he could get $60,000 pretty easily, but the mileage+accident is a $12k hit
