Yes, correct. I was reminded by the previous comments a few posts back. Great we have such good memories here and a super HFS network!

Just like any car do your homework. I assume no sunroof has hurt it with most 911 buyers. Ray Catena is ALSO a Porsche dealer.

Worth investigating as the build is a pretty nice one. This one could have been priced too high in the past.

Many high end sports cars don't tend to stay in one owners possession many times. A lot of impulse buys or serious car buying habits. Some of these nice ones fall through the cracks sometimes and just need a loving owner!

Must have something to do with the color red. There's another 2014 S with mt that i saw Sewlickey in Pittsburgh has with low miles for 84k. It was just sold at Porsche Annapolis about a month or so ago, and now is showing as having been traded by an owner of a little over a month. Either some fickle buyers(possible), or issues. I tend to believe if it's serious issues, it would end up back at the selling dealer, but i would always get an explanation for that kind of movement.

Agree. Homework is important.

Just some clarification points. Richard Catena is a wholesaler. His brother is Ray Catena, a large multi franchise dealer (including Porsche). The two are not business partners.

Also, when reading the Carfax, the car went to a Ford dealer at the very beginning. Maybe purchased by the owner, etc. But odd to me. And then it went from dealer to dealer ending up at a wholesaler. Guards Red and a MT is a nice combination (IMHO).

As a wholesaler, Richard Catena knows the $$$ value of this car in the wholesale/retail market and should be willing to deal.

Really odd. This is the car I passed on a few months ago.
Mentioned up a few posts as well... Looks like it sold, was titled, went in for a service, then ended up back at the selling dealership. Maybe a buy-back when the new owner discovered a few things and raised a fuss? Hard to think of many other reasons why it would be sold/titled and then end up right back at the selling dealership a month later.

Just for a sense of some wholesale numbers...

Local BMW dealer took a 2015 C4S in on on new i8. Original MSRP was about $125K, 10K miles. Basalt Black over full tan leather with most of the goodies.

They got a buy-bid when figuring trade in value from the local Porsche dealer for $87,500. Put it on their web site for a few days at $95,000 (and they are a no-negotiation dealership), but sold it to the Porsche dealer for the buy bid price yesterday.

Hasn't popped up on the Porsche dealers site yet, but I imagine it will in a day or so, and probably be like $105K CPO.

GT3 CUP Races at Road America. One word. INSANE. Went over to the race team areas too. Seeing the cars up close was sweet. Heard a few cars at start up and being moved. Even at idle, boy are they LOUD. Hearing those fly around the track is music to ones ears.

Quite the experience. Will be back.

If you click through the carfax report, you can get the TrueFrame crash report that is pretty comprehensive.

If you're a guards red guy and aren't scared off by minor crash damage, this looks like a great deal.

My guess is the price is a dealer mistake. Clean Carfax! Put a deposit on this one today if half interested!
