04 550?

[mts]

I've got one of those models and really enjoy it. It really is just a well optioned Boxster S, but since it has just about every option that came on the 986, that's worth some premium if you are an option whore like I am.....especially since Porsche charges so much for each option. If you aren't, I wouldn't even consider a 550 and look at something else. My car has 20k miles on it now and I paid $34k for it about 3 years ago. His asking price of $35k is a bit steep, but perhaps he only wants to sell it if he can get a premium price for it? There's nothing wrong with that, if he can't get it, he keeps it or lowers his price. In the mean time a little time searching and you'll find other 550's available.

If you want to pay $22k for one, good luck you'll probably need to look at a much higher mileage example to get in that range, or find someone really desperate to sell as I haven't seen any go that low before. You never know. However, regardless of how high the asking price is, anytime you offer someone almost 40% under their asking price and get told to go pound sand......you should expect that response.....and probably deserve it.
