I waited two days before I went to look at it. Unfortunately a guy put a $1000 non-refundable deposit down on it the day before. Another one that just got away....
986 and 996 prices are in the dumpster.

Blue book for a 2002 996 C4S 96K miles is $18K max. Be happy that it got away...

Blue book on my 99 996 C2 146K miles is $8K. Yep, worth less than a worn out Kia.

As PerfectLap said in another post, these cars are only worth the value of the engine life that might be left + the rolling chassis value. For example, a low miles car is worth the price of its nearly new engine ($7K) + the rolling chassis ($3K). A high miles car is worth barely more than just a rolling chassis - that worn out engine is worth almost nothing.
