I does look like it was treated rough, and then the current owners 17 year old kid convinced his dad to let him try to detail the whole car

Thanks for the post, that is 'almost' exactly the car I am looking for, if it were a 2015, 2016 or 2017 it would be perfect ... I gotta buy one that has a warranty though let me research it ... maybe I can buy a warranty for a 2014. |

My Boxster side wishes I did not see this. If it had a sunroof I might be bidding.
I’d go up to like $42 but I think it will for for more. https://bringatrailer.com/listing/2011-bmw-m3-48/

I can't wrap my head around Porsche values either. $56k doesn't seem bad at all from a buyer's perspective, but it also didn't sell at that price, so obviously the seller expected more. |

Keep in mind the 5 percent buyers premium; the high bidder was looking at a total cost of 58,500.
My guess is that the reserve on that car was less than 60, but probably not much less. For a car that new I think you’re probably better off going the CPO Route, not only because you are getting a longer warranty but also because a lot of those cars are going to come off lease and end up at Porsche stores. OTOH, my then-three year old Boxster went to a 3rd party lot after a wholesale auction, likely because dealers were scared of trying to sell a blue over blue car. So who knows? On the other, other hand, searching through Porsche's pre-owned portal finds nothing similar to this car. The closest is a 2015 Boxster S, which is going for 55K. So maybe the seller here expected north of 60? https://nationalpreownedporsche.com/...White+17405247 |

It's not worth it at $61k for porsche style "investment". But to drive and enjoy, there are a lot worse ways to spend $61k.
FWIW, I thought 56k would be a good deal for the buyer, but I guess the seller has that or a bit more offered in trade which is why they are holding out. Come to think of it, I have a very similar car, it's three years older and I bought it three years ago in May (with 8k miles and clear bra and all that). Mine is not a GTS (no such thing in 2013) but it does have 6MT, PTV, PASM, PSE, 18-way seats, GT Silver, full leather interior and a $91k MSRP. I bought it on the spot for $56k back then with 8k miles. I might have gotten a slight deal and the GTS may be worth more, but "$61k firm" is not realistic. By the way, the GTS (I test drove a new one) has a sound tube or some other addition to "enhance" sound in the cabin. I personally did not like it boominess. I've seen reports of folks disabling it or stuffing it like they did with a Bose subwoofer. In fact, I don't even like artificial Pop/Bangs too much. The exhaust sounds just fine as it is, sometimes better with PSE on, sometimes better with it off. Three years on, I have no plans to sell it, my mileage accrual dramatically slowed down in the last two years, so I'm just about to cross 20k. |
