2002 With 28,000 Miles - Pricing

My friend is planning to buy a 2002 with 28,000 miles for $26,000. He's having a PPI done tomorrow. Any comments about the deal? Here are the particular's:

2002 Porsche Boxster, 5 speed manual, Lapis Blue Metallic with Savanna Beige Leather interior 2.7 Liter six cylinder engine 217 hp Sports Package with 17"Wheels CD player AM/FM radio

I'm still trying to develop pricing data and get a feel for the market before I start making offers. This looks like it is in line with Kelly and Edmunds estimates.

Thanks

When people risk their lives, shouldn't it be for something very important?
Well, it better be.
But what is so important about driving faster than anyone else?
Lots of people go through life doing things badly. Racing's important to men who do it well.
When you're racing, it's life. Anything that happens before or after is just waiting.

Check KBB private party values, NADA values and then the Auto Trader online for comp. values. This should give you an idea if you are in the ballpark. All values on available online.

Good luck on the buy!

Suggest you move this to a dedicated thread and provide the data you reference.

We would love to chat about the topic sans sarcasm?

Since when does consumer reports rank brands? I've only ever seen them rank specific vehicles or items...
