I'm really close (will probably start the deal Monday or Tues) to making the purchase on the 08 997.1TT with 7600 miles (I posted build sheet above) and simply wanting opinions before I do. Is the market on these 997.1TT's going to hold??
PROS
-Near showroom condition
-Coils / Plugs literally JUST done. (receipts)
-Fidelity Platinum Warranty (only $100 deductible) until July of 2020 (transferable but not sure of the process).
-Black GT3RS wheels with brand new Mich. PS4S tires (400 miles on them)
-Orig. wheels / tires come with it.
-Xpel on entire front of car
-Opti-Coat on entire car.
-Silver / Natural Gray
CONS
-Paying a healthy price but fair (according to my research).
-I'm having to finance %70 of the entire purchase.
This will be a bucket list / Dream purchase, so I'm hoping I'm making the right decision.
For S&G's...What else is out there in this price range for the money / value??

But I dont think you should hold your potential purchase for that.

But you can either guess (based on the market) or you may know the seller??
It's definitely fair given the $4K warranty, $4K worth of wheels /tires (plus originals), $1300 worth of brand new plugs / coils.
Gorgeous car though!!

Especially with the warranty it sounds like a great buy unless they're asking $90k or something. (My ballpark would be probably $78-82k?) As long as the payments won't be too painful, I say go for it.
