Default Price Check: 09 TT w/ 6K miles

Looking to get back into a 911 and replacing the RS4 as a DD.
Opinions on a fair price on this CPO car would be appreciated - thanks!

Congrats on the guy who put it together!

Nice car - love the exterior blue...not so hot about the interior blue. 08's are going in the low to mid $90's so maybe this one isn't priced too far out of line - maybe should be $105.

103 to 106. A bit higher than it should be, smaller selling window with specialized color.

That is one nice example....low miles, right options. JHB...interior is black other than body color rear console. Very nice. Good luck with the deal if you go for it.

Thanks for the feedback guys. I love the color but this would be used as a DD so I'm concerned it may be a little too much and not really certain it would be worth the premium.
Also, lowering springs and the aero pkg may be impractical.
Cheers,

I can see the black...but it was the center console in blue that I thought was too much.

I would think more like $105 - $110K. It is very heavily optioned, very low mileage and CPO'd but the unique color will only appeal to a few buyers.

I think you need to really like that color. If you get tired of it it will not be easy to sell. Smerf blue is not my favorite. First time someone asks if you are papa smerf it will ruin it for you. IMHO

Love the color....I would think 104k is a decent price for both. Dealer could not have paid more than low 90 for it

It is only painful it one lets it be painful.

No matter which car, which color, the options, how little or how much one pays for a car, there's always something someone can say negative about the car, about one's choice.

(One guy in a fast food restaurant parking lot said "nice Volkswagon" as I drove by. How can this hurt when the guy was driving a crummy old van pulling a trailer full of lawnmowers and leaf blowers? For crying out loud he's a "landscape engineer", to put it kindly. I cut grass, raked leaves (before leaf blowers), shoveled snow, did yard work, mended fences on farms, cut brush, even before I was a teenager to earn spare money to put towards my first motorcycle.)

I buy cars I like. I try to buy cars I like that I think are in good condition. I try to buy cars I like and that I think are in good condition at a good price. When someone offers to buy my cars for me then they can tell me which color of car to buy.

Until then...

The Sept. issue of Car had a 3 car test: A new BMW _M3_ GTS, a MC Stradale and a 911 GT3. I forget what colors the other 2 cars were, just your old every day silver, or black. The GT3 was in that blue color. An overhead shot of the cars at night and the Porsche looked gorgeous. The other cars blended into the pavement.

Sincerely,

Macster.

Default still am a landscaper

Macster, I am one of those- a landscaper. I started with one mower, etc. I now am on my third porsche, well forth, if I count the one I rejected. Careful how you characterize people, by what they do for a living. What have you contibuted to society? How did you start? I am not taking credit for what I achieved. I credit it to the grace of God. How bout a little humility for what you have!!! What are the odds that you were even born in this country? I could go on, but...
