Nick,
Thank you for the pricing! That helps a lot, I looked it up on KBB but the other compairisons help as well!!

Randall nice story haha!
Im going again to look at it tonight and printed off a whole bunch of stuff from your website(the i want a porsche one) and am going to show that to the guy and take the service records and see what he has done. Th front drivers side control arm sqeeks a little when i was driving it... This usually means it needs replacing correct?

The car is in very very nice shape for how many miles are on it. There is a small pea size dent in the rear bumper and a few small scratches here and there.
The mileage is the only thing that worries me and i dont want my first Porsche experience to be a bad one

Thank you guys for the help once again!

I agree that $10,500 would be fair, if you could him down to $10,000 that would be even better. Good luck, with the purchase and post some pictures once you get the car!

And if anyone else can tell me some stuff to check out on the car let me know please!

Thanks once again for all the help!

Hang in there!

It took me months to find my Boxster. I kept calling right after they sold the car to someone else or like you the owner would back out. That happened twice. The only car where the seller was falling all over himslef for me to buy was a 2001 S that would not shift into second gear. (no thanks)

Stay after it and you will find your car. Try AutoTrader.com or Cars.com. I had to drive over 6 hours to pick mine up, but I have been in Heaven ever since
