I would imagine that it's difficult for the various sites that publish valuation assessments to stay on top of the 997 market. I think those Hagerty values are in the rearview mirror now.
VT Blue has called it right in noting that the price is high, but maybe to be expected in the market as it now exists.
Looking at the history of the car in the CarFax; photos of the car itself; and the build / spec - I think it has good bones and excellent potential (pending a good PPI report.) The car just needs some TLC and a caretaker who can bring out its full potential.

waiting for snow/ice to melt around here to do the test drive. Shouldn’t be long, snow does not stick around long out here.

What about this one? Looks like CarFax has damage though.

PTS color 6MT 07 C2S Can. Certainly expected it to go for more than $40k plus fee. Both 997.1 but one is 1 year older w/ 25k more miles, Cab vs. Coupe = $10k diff in price?
Certainly makes you think. . .

These are things that intrigue me. Compare that one to this one:

Cab prices in the winter - usually lower. (The impetus behind sports car purchases can often times be impulse. This drives cab sales in the good weather months particularly.)
The cab has an interior color that hurts it in the eyes of many potential buyers. Red is polarizing - while some like it, many more do not.

There are other primary factors in play that need to be taken into consideration.

Agree and understand those dynamics. They make sense. You’d think the PTS color would add something back. I here you on the red interior. It is a bit much for me as well.
The $10k difference is the puzzling thing. The other one was a pretty common color. . . Expected the difference to be less than $10k. I would expect a few $k. But hey, this 997 market seems to be moving and these are just two data points that probably don’t tell the whole story.
