Pretty landscapes aside, I would not expect anyone to pay close to $140k for a standard 997S when 996Turbo or even 997.2 would be an option. tomo and flamingporsche 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GC9911 Posted 19May, 2021 Report Share Posted 19May, 2021 IMHO Dollars are right, kms are high side & not manual but PDK works well. If it has good service records then ok & if you don’t pay asking your in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edgy Posted 1June, 2021 Author Report Share Posted 1June, 2021 Has anyone viewed this 7.1 Carrera S Tiptronic?

spiller Posted 1June, 2021 Report Share Posted 1June, 2021 7.2 C2S is by all accounts a fantastic vehicle but that’s $175K every day of the week. Rare or not it sits below 996 GT3 in the 911 pecking order as far as I’m concerned . That midnight blue 7.1 is gorgeous. Price is a little on the high side but not outrageous. Not a terrible buy in this market for someone who doesn’t mind a tipper. edgy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a terrible buy in this market for someone who doesn’t mind a tipper. I agree... I have been toying with the idea of flicking my Macan and getting a Carrera or Carrera S Tiptronic for a daily grind, since my circumstances have drastically changed... I just dont know what fair market is now in 2021? Of course 1 year or more ago, these were sitting at circa $70k~ but the rising tides lift all boats they say? But no one seems to know where the high tide mark is... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But no one seems to know where the high tide mark is... Definitely tricky to pick the timing. I remember seeing some people asking similar $$ for import manuals not that long ago. Not entirely apples to apples but if you don’t mind the tiptronic that seems like a nice car with hopefully a bit of negotiation in it (although who knows in this market 🤪) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It really feels like a case of monkey see, monkey do, and so we've got an excess of over priced stock on the market, and no transactions to support the asking prices! What is going to take for sellers to actually meet the market when most of them close their ad verbiage with no offers I know what I've got! crsedge 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
