Opinion on price?

[dkriebel]

I just sold an 03S with 25,000 miles for 30K...could have got more , but she was good looking!

rick3000 and djomlas hit the nail on the head - that's just the asking price. It's a buyers market right now. Go talk to them and find out what they'd be willing to take to move the car off their lot - you may be surprised by the answer.

Also, logon to galves.com and get their wholesale price for the car (there's a fee for this service, and no I'm not affiliated with them in any way). In my experience they provide the most accurate values for used cars. Use that value like you'd use the invoice price on the purchase of a new car.

Good luck in your search!

Several threads recommend buying the latest boxer one can afford. Would an '01 Porsche Certified with 20k miles be worthwhile?

^ It depends on you.
I would prefer low miles over the year if it has been maintained. But a lot of people would go newer with higher miles because the newer models are less prone to some things like RMS failure and include things like a glove box. But a Porsche certified '01 would be worth considering depending on the price. I really like that one actually (but I like blue), you could probably get it for $24K.
