Yes they are asking prices and mostly dealers but the numbers are a far cry from previously mentioned figures. My guess is that the above figures are for prime examples rather than branded titles PL was referencing. I'm not really in tune with the market and am frankly surprised at the under $10k price for Tom's 996 C2, then again a mid to high $20's priced 997 C4S manual Coupe sounds like an absolute bargain to me.
I thought you love sonnets. Or maybe it was haikus.

C4S is not a good model to choose to get the 30K foot view of market pricing because C4S are not nearly as common as C2. For instance, on Autotrader they typically represent only ~10% of 997.1's for sale. Ditto for 997.2's.
