Because that would be way under market. 6-speed 997.2 Turbo coupes are extremely hard to find and desirable and this one only has 21k miles on it. Unless there are genuine issues with it (someone mentioned red flags in speaking to the seller), it should be high $70s or low $80s at a minimum IMO.

Sometimes people just want something gone, but recover some of their cash. The ad said it's too low to the ground and it makes his back hurt getting in and out of. If the reserve is 73, he might sell for less if you show up with cashiers check and temp plates or a carrier.

Advertisement is misleading.

I just ran the carfax

VIN # WP0AD2A93AS766263

03/29/2013 Damage Report Accident reported

08/05/2013 17,915 Auto Auction
Eastern Region Listed as a dealer vehicle
Vehicle sold at auction


I called the seller to ask = he said he did not know about the damage but he said it seems like it was along the passenger side of the vehicle. Not sure if it's really that great of a deal now...
Seller also requests payment by wire transfer. More red flags...

Nah, there are easier hassle free ways of dumping something other than ebay. Chances are there are issues and he is hoping someone with their head up their you know what purchases.

Yeah, that sketchy history explains it. I saw another low-miles 2007TT go surprisingly low on eBay recently and with a bit of sleuthing I saw that it had 5 owners and an accident to its name that weren't mentioned in the ad.

Saw this pop up in my local CL search.

https://denver.craigslist.org/cto/6110214876.html

Price is a little high but that's typical for this area.

2011 C2S, $50K in Houston.
https://cargur.us/gvTYT
WP0AB29946S740983

42k miles, clean carfax, great build (Aerokit, PDK, Sport Chrono, Sport Exhaust, painted sport seats, full leather, etc).

Looks like a great car/price if you can handle the full Carrera Red interior!

You could buy some black accent pieces to break it up a bit. I agree thats too much red for me. But its a nice build. Aero kitted 997.2's.....are pretty rare. You can't even buy all the pieces anymore. Just the bumper is all I can find for sale.

Black sport-design paddle shift wheel and black floormats would be a good start...

So does that mean if the aerokit were to sustain damage there no way to replace it? That would make me a bit nervous.

Great options, but the full red interior is tough to stomach for me.

Would look better if the carpet and wheel was swapped for black.
