motosparkz Posted October 22, 2016 Report Share Posted October 22, 2016 Hay oop, Whilst having a look for some bits, I came across this. A tiptronic to boot. Reckon he will be sat on this for a while - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Porsche-Boxster-550-Spyder-Anniversary-Edition-Tip-PETROL-SEMIAUTOMATIC-2004-04-/371762844452?hash=item568ecad324:g:4aQAAOSwn7JYCkta Blimey :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason986S Posted October 22, 2016 Report Share Posted October 22, 2016 Passenger rear quarter looks a darker colour to the rest of the car, possible paintwork too? that price is ridiculous as well regardless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seagull Fan Posted October 22, 2016 Report Share Posted October 22, 2016 the dealer has a sales forecourt a couple of miles from me and I pass it twice a day on what to and from work. they always seem to have cars in forecourt for an age, some then go but then sometimes reappear later so not sure if they turn them to another locations? if this ones outside then I'll stop and take a look at the near side rear quarter colouring, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A couple of years ago, I would have agreed, but with the way the used car market has been, maybe they are just ahead of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So they will be sitting around waiting for the rest of the industry to ramp up the prices (quite a while) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sazzy Posted October 23, 2016 Report Share Posted October 23, 2016 I used to live up the road from this dealer. He had some nice cars in as well as every day runabouts but they were all very overpriced and seemed to sit there for ages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike597 Posted October 24, 2016 Report Share Posted October 24, 2016 There's a dealer near me with a very fine selection of cars that are consistently all 10-15% over usual trade prices. I don't know if it's a marketing trick and he expects to be negotiated down to the trade price level or he has some other reasons for it. Either way he's been in business years and is always stocked up with porsche, Ferrari, m3 and others and they do seem to turn over, albeit not fast.

Topbox Posted October 24, 2016 Report Share Posted October 24, 2016 I think most people here look at the car as something they would own and use. A collecter is a different beast I feel. Surely that sort of money would be loose change so the purchase would in effect be just a little punt or fill a hole nicely in a collection. As a Boxster owner who likes to use the car I am not sure if I want values to appreciate dramatically or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
