if you're coming from an s2k, you may want to consider the gt3, or even the base C2 (not the C2S). you should go out and test drive all them before you jump into such a big decision.

let us know your thoughts on the ride after your test. im currently considering a new C2 or a GT3. im not in love with the TT at all, but it's still a great car.

Just drove it and :0 I'm in love with it. I saw the carfax for it on the site, it seems right, here is a link to the dealer where it is at.

I did indeed test drive a C6 Z06 about 2 months ago, fun fast car, but the ride after comparing it with the 911 is "crap".

a very nice car indeed. but for an 04, that price seems a bit high, possibly when you can go with a new M3, or new 911 for around that. i'm just a sucker for the face lift on the new porsches(05+). good luck.

Cheapest I found on autotrader was an 04 with around 9k miles for 87k, and this one with 10k is 83500 excl tax, so with tax it will be around 89k. The price is a little high as what he says because of the HRE's and some small extra. I don't believe those will bring the price up that much though. But still considering getting the car. Still doing some search about price.

Offer him $80k and call it a day. If the dealer is hungry, he will take it.

See if the dealer is willing to CPO it & give you an extended warranty. For an 04' that is not bad. Good luck. That car looks great.

2004 to 2007 = probably out of warranty completely. Factor big $$$ in, in your decision.

I just wanted to admit for the record - I was wrong. Looks like you could get a year or so of the original warranty. It's 48 mos/50K miles.

Go ask questions on 6speedonline.com. Those guys know the market. KBB is a bad resource for the 911 turbos. It is too high.
