-Official- Is this car worth it thread
...under $20,000. Anything I should look out for with this vehicle.. The pictures look like its clean. CARFAX is clean.. It's an off lease trade at a Porsche dealership. 1 owner so everything sounds great.. Is it just the high mileage that scares me away?? Any thoughts or suggestions??
58,000 miles on a 2008 scares me just a little bit though.. I assume the vehicle was properly maintained if he traded it in for a Porsche. Even though there are no facts behind that I would assume it was owned by a more "mature" owner.. Thank you for your input!
hi all,
I'm thinking about trading in my 2008 mazdaspeed 3 with 22k miles in the upcoming weeks/months for a used 2005/2006 AP2 depending on how much I can get for the speed. KBB trade in value for my car is around 15-16k. The car is paid off. If I have to pay 2-3k out of my pocket that's fine.
I went to check out this one yesterday at a local independent dealer but it was still being serviced. I will be back to the dealer next week when it is on the lot.

MY 2006, 55k miles (~13k miles/year), asking $18,000
opinions? too many miles? kbb value for this car is $18,700

1 owner, no accidents.
However it says "sold at auction, listed as fleet car", is that something I should be concerned about? I looked up a bunch of other S2k's and I even found a certified used S2k that was sold at an auction.

2007 GPW
$18,500 for 31k miles or $23,000 for 4,400 miles
$18,500 is in line with KBB, also closer so I could fly in and drive back.
$23,000 is further, I'll probably spend $1,000 on Escrow and shipping it over. Definitely has a premium, but how often will you see a GPW with such low miles for sale?
