If you're willing to have it shipped from the east coast, south shore porsche in freeport ny has several NEW 07 and 08 911's and are very open to negotiate!

Has 100 miles on it. Sticker at $100k, for sale at $90k, and for me, and only if I acted soon and because I was refered to them by a friend, and only because they had to ask all the way up the management team to the owner of the dealership, they would "let it go to me for" $86k. Uhmmmmmm, yeah, thanks but I'll fly down to California and buy my car down there.
Those prices might have been reasonable last fall, but now there are even 997.2 USED for sale... $86k for an '08 C2S Cabrio is Ridiculous!!! Or you might just go like this:

79,

Yup, not sure what's going to happen to them but the dealer that I'm talking about is the other one. You know, the one located in the city with 16.7% unemployment in March of this year? They seriously need a reality check over there (as well as Sunset). Both dealers do know that we in Oregon have the second highest unemployment rate in the country, right? Unless they are selling most of their cars out of state (which I doubt since I live in this state and I took my cashiers check to buy my car out of state), I don't know how either will survive. I don't give a rat's behind about their sales department based on how I was treated, but I do need their service department to stick around.

Yup, they are ridiculous. They actually put this car on ebay last month with a Buy It Now price of $90k. They didn't get even one bid/offer.

A lot of the Porsche dealers also deals with Audis and/or other makes. Maybe they are offsetting the loss on Porsche side from sales of other brands?

Good point. Both dealers around here also deal with Audi, VW, BMW, etc.

I don't know about that. I laugh every Sunday when I see their ad in the New York Times for low mileage used 2008's for only $79,995. What a bargain!

I love dealers that quote the MSRP when they are trying to sell a used car! That's what the ad is for that '09. Basically a year old with pretty low miles. $17k below MSRP is almost available on a new car that nobody's touched!

So true and add to that the car is creme white which is in the top three epic fail colors : 1) creme white 2) lauch car green and 3) Macadamia .

In fact the Macadamia brown ,non sport chono PDK ,Targa in my opinion would be my pick the most failed 997 thus far . It lacks color desireability, full PDK setup , and is priced so high that who woiuld want it ? Yet Porsche sent two per dealership as a launch car.
