I would prefer a 991 base with PSE and Sport PASM (I know, not offered). Both are so good and so fun

The seller says he has documentation this accident was just a small scuff and with the rare X51 I actually think this is a fair price and will sell close to asking price. Put this on BaT and I bet it goes even higher than $51,500.

It may! My friend sold his 2010 C4S manual with 12,000 miles for $54,000 due to a "small scuff" that was on the carfax. I figure it was otherwise a $60k car. BAT is pretty insane sometimes

If you have access and don’t mind PDK check out PCA ad 39021, a Sapphire (I think, maybe Aqua) Blue 997 GTS. I’ve ever seen one in that color in person or for sale.

❤️ Just love Aqua on that car!!! I don't know how Canadian converts to USD, but at $, that would be a steal of a price for a very, very special GTS!

I remember this car being for sale in Edmonton last year. Looks to now be in Toronto. 68k converted to USD is $50,260. Seems like a great deal if it checks out.

According to the ad, price is in USD. Still reasonably priced! It doesn't look to have sport suspension though: look at that wheel gap!

it also has 34,800 miles. His math is off!

If you can view the pics it has the Sport, Sport Plus, Shock button, and PASM Off button. How could it not have sport suspension?

It's an incredible price if it checks out and there aren't major hurdles in bringing it to the US.

Those buttons only indicate PASM. PASM equipped cars are -10mm from standard Carrera ride height. Sport Suspension, AKA, Sport PASM, is -20mm from standard and the only way to verify if it has it is by looking at option codes on the build sheet.

It would be about $71-72k by the time you import it and pay for shipping.

I think it is priced reasonably, but it has 35,000 miles and is a PDK. Similar builds and mileage that are manual sell in the mid 70's from private parties, so I think the price is definitely "fair" for both buyer and seller. I wouldn't say "incredible" however! If you go back and look here, most of the PDK GTS private party sales are typically listed high 60's to low 70's, depending on mileage

Factor in 2.5% duty plus broker costs...

Fair enough and I’m not a PDK guy but the fact that it’s not black, white, or silver has to be worth some kind of premium. That is definitely one of the downfalls of the used 997 market, that the vast majority are one of those three “colors.” I’ve had them all and really would like something more unique next time. Even white, which is my favorite of the boring standard colors, is very hard to find. So many black ones...ugh...never again.
