Default Looking to make a purchase but need some advice.

Hello everyone my name is Rob and this is my first time posting. I am currently looking at a one owner 2001 turbo coupe with 7-8k on the clock that is priced @ $66,500. It has every single option you could imagine and carbon fiber galore. The car is in absolute mint condition and it shows. Is this a fair price or not? Thanks!

2001 Turbo Coupe Silver/black interior
5 spd
All options

That's very low mileage. The price is a bit high for an 01, but if it's mint condition, it would be in line. Have you done a PPI, carfax, etc?

If it's in mint condition that's about right. Do all the checks, especially that low odometer reading. I have an 04 Turbo

Car checks out and has been serviced at a Porsche dealership. They have no problem with me taking it for the ppi, but I also have the option to pay $2,450 for a 2yr/100k warranty. Think I am going to jump on it. Thanks for the input guys I was in need of some reassurance and look forward to posting in the future.

As the provenance seems good, and its mint, deal sounds reasonable. Have fun.

I am first flying out to California next week to look the car over and have the ppi done. If all checks out the car will be getting shipped back to me in Virginia, so it looks like this process might take some time but definitely worth the wait for this beauty. I promise to post some pics once I get her and get ready for some ?'s. Will keep you all updated.
