Shopping for a 2011 Boxster? Pounce on the PDK... It is that good and $35K sounds pretty sweet.

Thanks Topless! This is the first time I have seen a car where the price is under NADA, KBB and Edmunds estimates. Most cars I have looked at in past 6 months would have two or all three of the estimates much lower than the quoted price by the seller.
Sorry about this rant but sometimes private sellers seem to be in denial about depreciation and what the car is worth 5 years after being driven of the lot. I can't count the number of ads which claim "only model in North America with so and so option..." or "the best optioned Porsche stateside...". The first four or five months of my search, I was only focused on private sellers - I'm not really sure a lot of them end up selling cars at what they expect. There have been a few cars listed on Autotrader for many months. In the last couple months I figured I would start looking at dealers as well. It's been a surprising pleasant experience so far. Hope it ends on a pleasant note as well.
