Yes, it's been around quite a while, but our new-born Riley just needed a reason to type "Enigma & LTC" into one of his threads

I think where the suggested options pay of is raising your target market at resale which does impact the price (e.g. if you must sell and there is only one person buying you are kinda stuck with what they are willing to pay).

Personally I bought with the intent of keeping it for a long time (8+ years) so the "helps resale" really wasn't a consideration for me anyway.

you could actually order a new vehicle cheaper than that shown car (with a discount applied).. but then have to wait (which most people dislike as they buy on emotion)
I'm in the "doesn't like to wait" group, but I didn't have a choice as there were no Diesels on the lots when I ordered mine (and even the ones that started getting there were either way over my target or missing the deal breaker options). While I don't like to wait, I also respect the value of my money which is why these used prices confuse me.

Maybe it colors my view that I have 4 dealers in 50 miles of my house and at least one always seems to have a few of these stripped V6s available on the lot and they are willing to deal.

just noticed it. prior you could view your dealers inventory but not do an open search, i always in the past would email someone at a dealership to do a search and they never said you could do it on the site (or their was a member here with red gT3 that would do the search if requested)


another gentleman had suggested the search, i'm on their site weekly and had never noticed.. so figured others might enjoy it as well. posted it in the 991 section as well, to help people searching for something... it's surely not normal for an automaker to allow you to search all dealerships for product so i felt it merited a thread.

I've been using the used car search for years to follow the market and that's how I found my 911. What I'd really like is the ability to search the new car inventory either regionally or nationally. Now that's something that the dealers will never let you do. Dave

There must be a lot of water under the bridge between some ppl on this thread because I didn't know about it (used car search) and thought it a helpful note.

That feature has been around since dinosaurs roamed what is now known as The P!g Pen ... And around since Larry owned a Cayenne.


Let me see ... Day late and a dollar short ...times 7 years .... Compound interest .... We're gonna need more dollars.

Can someone please sell a V6 Cayenne to help pay for this discovery?

pretty cool that you can now search all dealer inventory.. also shows you going rates for certain makes/models.. in prior years you would have to ask a dealer to lookup.. just noticed this function today on the site.. i'm sure it's been out a little but but i have yet to see anyone mention it.




enigma and ltc would love to see that the CHEAPEST 958 in the country is $48,9 with 25k miles..

"what a horrible resale they have" especially considering the 2011 started at like 46k and is almost 3 years old now.

Thanks for sharing!
