Some crazy used car prices.
« on: 07 November 2008, 21:41:32 »

Just some of the crazier car prices I have seen lately;

1998 Porsche 996 C2, pristine, cloth interior, 140K miles, 11K

996 Turbos are going for 29K

The real ones, 993, going for 15K - same price as a 3.2

Mk1 Audi TT, top spec, under 70K miles, 7K

57 plate Cayenne 4.8S, 4K miles, 34K.  Turbos going for even less.

Not that any of us can afford that much, but a ton of stuff going for 25-35K that was going for a lot more earlier this year.

Early E55, 270K miles, still going strong, 5K


What have you guys seen in terms of crazy price drops?

Those have always dropped 75% of their value as soon as you drove it off the lot.

A8's have also dropped to similar prices now, and they are much better as long as you don't get the first year of the new model.
