Default Am I dreaming? Finding a 2007 White GT3 with 50k mies?

Moving back to the US in 3 months and I would love to buy a 2007 White GT3 with 50k miles... Why 50k miles... To bring the price down to the $60k range (according to KBB).... Am I dreaming?

You have to be patient, have finances in order, and be ready to take the next flight out.

Deals are out there. I've seen higher mileage cars in the low 60s.

eBay, autotrader, Rennlist and cars.com
I would say the first 3 are your best bet. Also if
You have a friend at a dealer, will help to watch their screens.

They exist - just have your cash ready. Here's a freebie that just popped up in NorCal:

There was one last month that was sitting around for a while. I test drove but passed pondering over the mileage...someone from across the country scooped it up 2 days later well below asking.

Oh man... Who knows how many of those 67k are track miles. But either way...too early!

Found one (sort of).

46,800 miles 997.1 GT3 in white
Price: $72K
Dealer: Porsche of Huntsville (Alabama)

http://huntsville.porschedealer.com/...62682/info.php

Definitely a track car... Previous owner installed GT3 Cup shifter and (I think) throttle blipper...

I'd think you could talk this car down to mid $60s... This small dealership does not do a lot of used car volume. I see cars on their lot for months...

I am in Huntsville today, and plan to look at the car just because. I'll try to grab and post the ECU data...

Interesting.... Did you go see the car?

The Cup shifter is interesting. Blipper... So it has a sequential box in it? Gear Indicator would agree.

Yea I would agree it prob has some wiggle room!

Thanks!

I am still 3 months away from moving back to the US..

+1 I would have to agree, if you could get this for 57 or so you would be doing great.

Its not a real sequential shifter as far as the gearbox. You still have to use the clutch to shift, but instead of moving through the traditional H pattern its just a pull down for upshift and push for downshift.
