I'm looking for a reasonably well optioned coupe (nav, iPod, sports chrono), 10k or less.

Would really appreciate any pointers.

Thanks!
Paul

 

Paid $79k for a well optioned CPO, full leather, nav......, sports chrono, heated and ventilated seats, and some other nice things a few months ago with 13k miles.

Did I pay too much, maybe a few grand but got a really nice car from a good dealer I am really happy with

 

79 with PDK would not be bad

 

Forgot to mention that unfortunately it was not PDK. Car is perfect in every other sense so its still not a bad deal.

I have had many manual cars and was looking for a PDK when this opportunity came up and decided to jump on it.

Will probably hold on to the car for a few years and make the move to a 991 after they are out and debugged.

 

Thanks - I'll aim for $80-ish for PDK and maybe 3K less for manual?

 

There are a bunch on the Porsche website, CPO's with PDK starting at $72k.

 

was gonna say $75k but +/- 5% or so is not unheard of...

 

That seems way high. I'd probably sell you mine for that . I'd suggest $75k or less. And I have PDK, plus all the important options..

 

I was offered 75K and 72K by two diffeent dealerships on my 2009 car almost one year ago.
MSRP on my car was 105 and I got 20 percent off in 2009 when it was new.(84K )

I can't imagine paying 79K and 80K for a car now .
If I spend more than 70K for a car it better be either a new car or a Turbo but a two year old 997S? No way.

 

This is why I need you guys! If you look on the Porsche site all the good deals are not real - they've been "sold" whenever I call.

So, nicely optioned 911S Coupe, 2009, with PDK, $70K? I've not seen anything close to that.

If a dealer quotes, say, $80K, can I offer $70K?

 

Doesn't hurt to ask. You can make a low ball offer but be prepared for a no.

There are slim pickings on 09's. In fact there are slim pickings in all areas.

This is not the fire sale of 2009.

 

2009 C2S with PDK and sports chrono with <15K miles for 70K? Good luck with that. I just checked cars.com and autotrader and there's nothing even close unless you're a fan of green. Keep in mind these cars will have another $5-10K in options in addition to PDK and SC.

 

if you could find a dealer with a 2010 new there taking 22,500 off those.

i would look at it like must be at least 25k off of sticker. with CPO
10k off a new car can be had pretty easy..so a extra 15k for it being a 09

Targa would be hard to find below 80

here is a couple

You won't see anything close to 70K but that doesn't mean you won't get a nice car for 70K . I didn't see 84K when I bought my 09 car . I saw the MSRP of 105K .

2009 was a year where the production numbers were so high that if you read the poszts of that time here you'll see that there were huge incentives . There was even a point where there were so many cars that they were offering incentives to dealerships to accept them from shipping .
There were also many launch cars which were identical creating an abundance of the same car . Here's an example that another forum member posted .. I think the car sold for 75K https://www.6speedonline.com/forums/...my-dealer.html

The economy got better , production decreased. the Panamera and new Cayenne sell so well that the sellers forgot what it was like to have quiet days of no sales .

Not that it matters .. make the offer and walk OR pay 10K more than what the car is really worth .. OR .. buy a new car . As long as one has to overpay .. it may as well be new.

 

Here's another old thread from 2009 . It's long but worth reading to give an idea of what these cars were selling for back then. In this thread the original poster was debating the idea of getting a loaded 2008 leftover for 40K off MSRP OR a 2009 c2S which he ended up getting for 20 percent off . https://www.6speedonline.com/forums/...good-deal.html

It was very shortly after I read this thread that I decided to make the same offer of 20 percent off on a 997S and bought my car . At that time I wasn't even looking to buy a 997S . I still don't even really need my 997S . I think i bought it partially because i wanted to try the PDK but morso because after all the years of buying Porsches I wanted at least to be able to feel like I got a bargain just once.
