Flat six, 6-speed manual, roof optional.

Base 981s are steadily coming into the sub $30k range. So far they’ve proven to be pretty reliable, and I’ve even seen a few CPO’s in the $33,000 range, though they rarely last a day or two. Some of the higher-spec’d cars are close to 50% depreciation.

Here’s a great example....mostly un-optioned other than the convenience package (wind deflector, heated seats, two zone climate control). None of the other bullshit, though personally I’d like a sport steering wheel. Two owner with full dealer maintenance history and no accidents.

$28,900 (original sticker was $52k). It will be interesting to see what these are going for next winter. Might be time to move up from my 986.
