Never trust the seller. Dealer or private. You have due diligence to perform in price research. 10k for a base with 99k seems high especially if not mint and IMS done. Then it's an easy call to go S for 4k. But a 6k jump is often a deal breaker. And don't be fooled by the name Porsche. There are many P cars that have very little value or sub 10k. Look in different markets. Fly there and drive them. It's an investment. Try several. Find yours, not just what's local.
