Looking at buying a 997 C2S as funds won't currently stretch to a 997 turbo.
Found a 2007 black 997 C2S cab, 2 owners from new, FPSH, 23,000miles at a dealer.
Dealer is offering 1 years warranty with the car.
Haven't yet viewed the car but been informed that it is in excellent condition.
What should I pay for the car?
Don't want to suffer too much depreciation as looking at keeping her for around 2 years until Ive got sufficient funds for a 997 turbo or Nissan GTR.
Currently have a 2005 BMW M3 which I'm reluctant to sell as I love the car.
Also what do I need to look out for prior to purchase?

Many thanks

Thanks for the replies guys.

I've now reviewed my finances and may increase my budget to £50k for a 997.1 manual turbo.

I'm looking for a low mileage example around 20,000 miles ish

There seems to be a few cabs about but very few low mileage coupes.

Not driven a 997 turbo cab yet, however would yoy guys recommend a coupe over a cab with regards to driving pleasure and residuals?

Thanks
