If you are worried about resale value, I would not buy this car. Many people will avoid a branded title, and most loan companies won't loan money to a branded title.
Are you solely looking into the 987 or was that the best deal that's within your budget? I was never a fan of the 987, just a personal preference though
Overpriced. I would rather find a clean title, perfect condition one for $25k. That car is worth 16-17k max with the marked title.So KBB is showing about 25K as the normal value for this car, the guy is trying to get 23K for it. I really don't think he will drop the price that much to be honest. Just so you know, I am a PCA member and do the PCA Peachstate Concours events. This would be the primary usage for this car, outside of the nice weekend ride. Just to tell you how much I drive my Porsche, my last 944 I owned for 1 1/2 years and only put about 1000 miles on it. Since this would be a much newer car, would probably put more miles than that. thanks for your comments
Given your planned usage, if you sold in 5 years you'd have a low mileage, concours condition car. In that case I'd be asking the market value in the day. If you can document the branding was due to hail, that should reduce the concern for the salvage title.So KBB is showing about 25K as the normal value for this car, the guy is trying to get 23K for it.
