Feedback wanted on the 40th anniversary model

I am thinking of picking up the 40th anniversary 996 edition - there is one local for $47K, and it has 8600 miles. I have seen a few going for lower cost, but this car has a warranty and I like the low mileage.

Any feedback on these cars? I think they are a great value if you are not the original purchaser at that inflated 96K price. I like the unique things about it.

Any other owners of this edition on this board?

Steve

Just picked one up last week. Still smiling! I think the price is bit high on the one you're looking at. I've seen a few under 40K. I paid low 30's, 50K miles with a warranty.

996 Carrera's are sub-30k cars. All of them. And the earlier 3.4 models are sub-20k cars. Low mileage is not necessarily a selling point on the 996....

It's a great combination of performance and comfort. I loved mine while I had it.
