And selling for a crazy price, as well. What sucker pays $14k for an S with 102k ?
Won on both sides. Very well done, but seems like a perfect storm.

I don't think mileage was the big deal on this car.
I've had 4 different 986 S through the recent years. This car was the best of the bunch. I was going to sell it for around 11K and reconsidered when I looked at what else was out there. I didn't make money, but got back some of the parts. My labor was free.
The new owner wasn't a sucker, they had a great deal of experience and had been shopping nationwide. They dropped a nonrefundable deposit sight unseen and traveled to inspect it several weeks later. After this, they noted how tight and refreshed the car was, even against others that had far fewer miles. Cosmetically the car was a 6 or 7, but mechanically it was a 10. When you drove it, it was solid, predictable and fast. If you looked at the car on a lift you were impressed.
I am really going to miss it.
