I have the same car and color scheme. You'll love it. However, I have to agree with everyone else. Not only is the seller asking too much, your offering too much. It's your money, so do what you want, but I would not offer more than $17,000 for that car in this market and maybe go up to $18,000. There are so many sellers out there, it you can do much better than your current offer.

Prices on these cars still vary wildly from region to region. It's been like that for several years. The right price in one part of the country may be way off in another.

too high for a 2.7. That's what a 3.2 should go for.
Does it have Litronics? 18" Wheels? Upgraded factory audio? How many miles on the tires? Hardtop?

Also, black is one of the few colors some folks outright avoid. Unless its a garage queen, it will look dirty half the time you own it. Personally, a black car is minus 10% off the asking price right off the bat for me. That's just my opine but I'd rather have to sell a silver or red car than a black one.

well my dear new friends, thanks for your input and great ideas as well as feedback. i looked at the box this morning. it was absolutely immaculate. except for 2 itsy bitsy stone chips on the hood it was damn near perfect. even the plastic window was perfect. it sounded muted but great. i drove it for about
30 miles. solid as a rock. i was worried about the battery , but its new. i thought i would be concerned about the tires but they have only a few hundred miles on the goodyear eagles. i just had a feeling that it was in exceptional shape. boy is it ever.lless than 29,000 miles. 2nd owner. victim of recession in his business. i offered 19999. he took it. now its up to my credit union and whats left of my credit. this is an absolutely exceptional boxster. i hope it goes through. if it does i will be a vociferous contributor to the forum. if not, well, crap!

its' only money, many of the comments may be right, but today, where you live, it is (must be) the best deal for you... i could find a lot of more enticing deals when i bought mine, but they were all far far away...

enjoy the car...

Rock-on Mrfredsporty. You know they have these things today called camera's. I hope you take advantage of one of those things and allow the rest of us 986Fourm fanatics the pleasure of gawking at your new found love.

For me personally, take one of the rear .
