At this point, it makes sense to hold on to the 996 TT, wait for the 997 TT, wait 18 months and buy a used one for half what they paid, and have two cars...........................

I would spend a little more and get a lower mile car. They are out there.

No offense to tip owners, but a guy I know has been looking and it seems like most of the good deals he finds are cars with tips/automatics and have a fair amount of mileage. That is not to say there are not low prices on 6 speeds also . . .

Pretty wild that they have a C4S right next to it for the same price. Even with lower miles and being a year older, that seems off to me. I wonder if the TT is solid.

I also just saw that was Luxury motors also. I think they have had that car for some time. I do remeber last summer seeing a red one with a red center console that was tip tronic. It was before mine came in.

I almost bought mine from them (Bentley Grove/Luxury Motors) while back ago, great service and people but their APR seems kinda high compare to others!

It is the Orient Color that hurts the value. I almost bought one 6 months ago with NAV and everything for 77k (2001). But it was Orient and I just could not see owning that color long term.

Im in the market currently and I ran the Carfax on that car a few days ago. Personally, I'm really picky with what I see on Carfax and I think other people may be as well. That particular car was originally registered as a fleet vehicle and has already had 3 owners. It's been leased twice and financed once. Personally, I walk away from cars like that.

Every turbo currently on autotrader and cars.com thats cheap has some title story. Either an obviously totaled car that was washed through Florida (entered the state, passed through 5 FL locations and exited the state), or was dumped at an auction.

For me, buying a car like a turbo, I place a LOT of value on a one owner car that was traded in to an actual Porsche dealer and is certified. Of course you can still get screwed that way, but think how much worse you can get screwed with the dubious history, non-certified, non-Porsche dealer cars...
