raafrebel Posted 25August, 2015 Report Share Posted 25August, 2015 Thanks Lee, but I'm in that frustrating space where I really want to build something, but if I do anything with cars it will be selling not buying right now. Two kids at private school and a wife who likes holidays keeps the risk of excess cash to an absolute minimum LOLJust day dreaming at the moment.... I'm in frustrating place too...i have no wife, kids out of school and girlfriend who loves fast porschesim frustrated cause every car I find that I like , has already been sold half an hour ago....I'm always too late when I find nice car....happened 2 times just last weekend..

symsy Posted 25August, 2015 Report Share Posted 25August, 2015 Get used to it , its like queueing up for the last ride of the day on the mega roler coaster and getting three people from the front before they close the theme park And as for ownership , you scream on the way up and the way down , there was a time in my 19 year journey with my car when I couldnt sell it for what it owed and had a $100 bucks in my pocket.. but it still sits in the garage today.A car will come, my forecast is the investor market will soften and they will stay sharply priced for the enthusiast , think of it as your house , they are never total financial decisionsAs for the girlfriend , with two wives under my belt girfriends seem like the right stock to holdGood luck 9er, ByronBayChris, raafrebel and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dragon02 Posted 25August, 2015 Report Share Posted 25August, 2015 As a local, could you recommend a specialist there you'd trust to check it over? I really should sell a car I have on the market first but as you say that's very well priced...Based on Redbook, would seem priced pretty much on the mark.

Mike D'Silva Posted 25August, 2015 Report Share Posted 25August, 2015 (edited) Based on Redbook, would seem priced pretty much on the mark.if we are talking about the white Cayman S, travelled about 80kms, in Carindale, Brisbane.... it's sold.. damn... Incidentally, I hope Mr Redbook is wrong about my 964... Edited 25August, 2015 by Mike D'Silva Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
