Default Rennlister in Edmonton to check out a PCar?

Hello fellow Canadian Rennlisters!

I'm in the market for an early Boxster and have found this one in Edmonton. Been looking for a Speed Yellow one for YEARS.

https://www.lexussouthpointe.com/use...2ad2da1ad2.htm

In case that link doesn't work it's at Lexus South Pointe (www.lexussouthpointe.com)

I'm in Calgary but due to work/family unable to get to Edmonton until at least after Easter and was wondering if anyone in Edmonton had time to help out?

Thanks so much!

Neil

I've learned from experience(986,987,997,996) it's better to spend 30k for 1/3 the km than 20k then need to spend 10k in maintenance

Southpointe is in my part of the city. The hard part would be for me to find the time to pop over there, but maybe I could bring one of my little ones with me. What specifically would you like looked at?

Sorry all, false alarm. Thought I'd agreed a reduced price (or was at least close to getting to it) but wasn't to be.

My search continues. JustinL thanks so much for the offer and apologize for wasting your time

Have a good weekend all

I'm in Calgary too. What price were you thinking for that car? I'm just trying to get a sense of the market.

If it had its IMS done (it hasn’t) I was thinking maybe $19k tops. But it hasn’t had its IMS done! So less….

Not arguing against the pricing for sure but at that many km's IMS shouldn't really be an issue no?

Think you will find plenty of posts on here that argue against the “if it hasn’t failed yet it’s never going to fail” argument!!

Ha ha I'll bet. Well, I have been looking for a bit and saw a speed yellow in Kelowna you might be interested in. It's asking more though.
