Based on the auction whole sale prices currently on Menheim that I listed in some detail in my previous post, I would say the RCF prices have stabilized in the low to mid $50ks for used models with average miles and average condition and they won't go much lower for a while anyway.

These things will hit a floor that they will not bounce below. These cars are simply too bad **** to not move at a given price and are already $10k plus less than anything close to comparable. People will slowly start realizing how great this car is and prices will remain stable.

Through my wife, I literally have access to and she can bring home to drive as much as she wants any cars in this range including M4s, M3s, M5s, AMGs, 997s, 981s, S/RS 5&7 or even a Bentley GT or Maserati. She drives my RCF as much as I and we both agree that the RCF is worth much, MUCH more than $55k when compared to anything else remotely in this class.

I really did see a 991 for $45k the other day. Probably still listed there.

Lol, no need to be dramatic if you want to show the link, show it. Not sure why you wouldn't have in the first place. I simply pointed out that $48k would be below current wholesale for 2015 grading less than clean with a fair amount of miles based at least on current Manheim.

May be a smoking deal, but I would certainly check car fax for accident or lemon return (i.e., fuel pump) as that is a very, very low price given the miles. This car is about $5k below wholesale for a clean 2015 with 3,000 miles. I can check car fax when I get home . . . at work and cannot remember my login and password.

BTW, that $45 k 991 I was talking about is one of those cash only deals . . . send the cash and they will, may or likely won't send you the car . . . So many of those I stopped calling the allegedly too good to be true deals on autotrader and cars.com.

If it seems too good to be true, it probably is....

I just checked the Carfax and.... boom, it has STRUCTURAL DAMAGE. Yes, this car is pretty messed up, has a disclaimer that the damage may impact the vehicle safety. That price was a huge red flag.

Carfax even lists two reported accidents.
