One of the cars that seems to have turned the corner in terms of its valve bottoming out and is now on a rise is the 997 Porsche 911 Turbo. It seems for a handful of years these hung out well under $100,000, but never down under $50,000 like the previous generation 996 did. Everyone knew they were fine cars, but most preferred the facelift 997.2 for the upgraded looks, equipment, and addition of the PDK gearbox in place of the outdated Tiptronic box. However, it is now 2021 and everyone is going crazy for good used sports cars, so here we are.
This 2007 911 Turbo up for sale in Miami thankfully has the six-speed manual gearbox and is finished in a very sublime color combo of Lapis Blue over an Ocean Blue leather interior. The good news? It only has 26,000 miles. The bad news? That means it is expensive.

Don’t get me wrong, this is a very nicely spec’d example. The interior options make all the difference, such as the adaptive sport seats with the color-matched backs. However, the $120,000 asking price has me doing some quick head math and it is not adding up. We’ve seen examples with fewer miles sell for much less money recently, and it wasn’t just one example. Maybe this dealer is trying to get ahead of the game and ask a super premium price, but this extremely hot car market is still to cool just a tad, so the asking price might be a little too much. If this was your perfect car and wanted to pay for it, go for it, but maybe it is not the best deal ever right now.

That is a great color and condition and mileage are excellent…but $120K??? completely out of line for a .1
I definitely like the looks of the 997.1 turbo but drove one a few years ago and was not impressed. The power is fantastic but they are heavy and the handling was a bit soft and sloppy. In PASM sport it becomes too harsh. Nice car but not for me. I owned a modded 996 turbo on coilovers. Admittedly not apples to apples , but that car was a much more visceral and fun to drive. A 997.1 like this was $75-80k last year. No way should these command a 50% premium over that value. $125k would have bought one of the rare 997.2 manual cars a year ago. I would wait a few months and buy this one for closer to last years price.
