Hi,
For a 2010 (non IMS) 911 carrerra, what do CPO vehicles go for usually range wise?

What exactly does CPO give you? (I am searching about it but sometimes real experiences may differ?)

Still too freaking much. P dealers are still asking $80 for a clean low mileage clean example

I dint realize they would still CPO a car that's been on the road almost 7 years. but if its 80K that seems insane.

997.2's are incredibly expensive in the Canadian market as not many were sold during 09-12 model years and quite a few went state side. For example I was able to buy my CPO 991 with Carfax records (minor damage) for less than 997's were priced at.

Even some 991's in the market right now are a better deal IMO.

What? You don't think a 7 year old car is still worth 90% of it's retail price? Lol.

I think mine might be ... but I had to get past the tipping point of 38 years.

Yea, i have seen CPO cars with accident damage. I thought it was strange? Guess it's common?

CamsPorsche

Porsche allows up to two panels to be painted and/or replaced and still be considered as CPO. But everyone's stigma on accidents allowed me to nab a great deal.

Agreed. I don't know about 2010, but in 2011 only 12 C2's were brought into Canada in that model year.

12? I guess nobody is buying these cars anymore or it has always been that low?

CamsPorsche

Porsche sales slagged due to the economic crisis that faced the North American market. As a result, Porsche slowed production as very few people in Canada were buying new Porsches at the time.

Since then, markets recovered and the U.S. dollar strengthened which resulted in a few CDN cars going south. This lack of selection in Canada is why you see strong listing prices for the 997.2's from (09-12) model years. Also add in the fact the 911 grew larger in size to a GT sized car also contributes to their perceived strong values.

12 cars? No wonder i can't find a blue 997.2 C2S with a manual and a dark brown interior.

In 2011 the Can dollar was about $ 1.05 US. The place to buy was in the US everything that could be driven or towed stacked the border crossings. This is part of the reason the Can numbers were low

Now a 40K USD car is:

$40000 * 1.35 (conversion from USD to CDN) * 1.13 (HST)
= $61K

I guess there would be potentially some transportation costs also.

Plus your import tax of 7.1 % . Even if the US car was left to you in a "will" you will still pay tax and import tax on the "Canadian border book valuation" at entry to Canada. Purchase receipts are ignored
