And love the fact the owner put 105k miles on it in 6 years.

There’s going to be a very happy boy in about 20 minutes.

Related: I’m glad Porsche seems to be backing off the whole “off throttle overrun burble/ popping ” thing. It’s cool to hear it occasionally, but has to be maddening to get it every damn time you get off the gas.

Yup, that’s where it’s at. $44k with 15 minutes left?

That seems like a lot for that, for some reason. Maybe I’m just bitter about something, but the 991s don’t really appeal to me. If I had that kind of money to spend on a Porsche, I’d get a 996 turbo.

$47k with 11...

Over $50k is probably too much.

If you get it, at least get the seller to change the air filters first.

It’s getting close to CP territory. Good buy at $45k, I think.

That burble and popping never gets old, from my experience.

It seems like it’s way too much, still.

I love the rear fender guards, such a cool old-school detail and they really pop on the white.

You could argue it’s way too much for a car with little to no steering feel.

You certainly won’t find a better 991 for less.

These often sell to people who take care of their things.  I’ve seen more seat wear in cars with a quarter of the mileage. NP, now you can drive it and not fret about depreciation, it’s done.

You can buy a high mile 997 for under $30k, so it’s still got a way to go to the floor, but who cares? It’s a great buy for a 6 year old Porsche, and will give the new owner many years of joy.

True. I had a rich tune on my Rabbit for awhile and it was awesome!

I made some carb adjustments that made the car run better, gas mileage improved, but the burble went bye bye. 

Full of the sound of the Gran Fury, signifying nothing. > Sovande 10/01/2019 at 17:42

I never tired of setting off car alarms when doing the 1st g ear overrun in my GTI. Never.

I’ve been tempted to replace the quiet, polite muffler on my minivan with something that could make those kinds of noises again. Nobody would be expecting it, like those F1-inspired S600s a few weeks back...

I was about to say these are depreciating nicely.

what i find amazing is how many low mile 911s there are. like base regular ones. they sell 10k a year. It isnt that rare. and you see them with 1k a year. There is a guy in my office with a 2008 boxster and he acts like its one of a kind and I just think enjoy it. I can understand not running in the winter, but all cars aren’t going to be rusting like 60s

I hope the gt3rs folks lose their shirts and the hording men tality trickles down.

That’s probably a little high for the mileage, but not by much. Beautiful car.
