Hi chaps,

Anyone give me some idea of value for the following:

996 X50 TT
2003 - 03
Silver with black leather
25K miles
Manual
good nick
1 owner

Also, does anyone have any views on where the values of the X50s are going? How rare is it really and do you think that they will hold their vlaues better than a standard TT?

About to be asked to part with the reddies for it so getting that excited nervousness - kid in sweet shop time!!

thanks

Hello mate,

First of all, I own a 996 x50 and love it to bits:-so much power.

The old question

is its a c16 car(uk spec)
does it have sat nav/phone - pcm
where are you buying it from, private, indy or local opc(and get your balls ripped out).

Heres one I looked at a few months ago, would have bought it but the dealer/owner would`nt budge on the price. Hes pretty much asking OPC money for this. And its got pcm1 which is`nt too good with the tape deck in all.

I ended up buying a 996 x50,1 owner, black, low miles & with out sat nav..saved a small fortune.

All the best and dont rush in, all in all I waited around 8 months for mine. Got the car I WANTED in the end.

Cheers

hi stevie,

funnily enough (well not that funny at all) I was reading your old posts about the black one when your reply came though. Looks good in pictures but no PCM2 is a turn off (not arguing with the misses about directions is priceless!!)

The car is a c16 uk spec with pcm 2. Guess I am a: worried about overpaying b: worried about what the prices will do over the next 12 months (lots of people suck through their teeth about it!) and c: worried about killing myself!! all that worrying has left me with no fingernails to grip the steering wheel with!

If I had to push you for a number £££? what would it be?

is the x50 worth it over the standard?

Where is the car:?

Private
independant dealer
Porsche dealer - official

There`s a one here in polar silver...looks a very, very top spec car. Last owner will have/be losing a small fortune on this one.....Think its been around for a while so there`ll be a deal to be done.
If you need any moral support or advice if that help give me a buzz on me mobile 07984087300.

No problem mate. Any time you want, you`ve got me number.

Have you had a good look around?

Have you drove a 996tt and a 996 x50 back to back to see the difference?

all the best

Unfortunately it's always going to be worth what someone is prepared to pay for it. No point asking on here as everyone has different opinions as to what these cars are woth - if you're buying you'll always want to pay less and if you're selling you'll want more for it - like a few people have answered to your previous posts just gauge it next to all the other ones for sale and compare mileage, spec etc - the market will dicate what it's worth - not anyone on here - run a list on autotrader and see if it fits in realistically against the others.
