This car has been on the market for a while: http://www.autotrader.com/findacar/v...r_id=142900611 The "minor accident" scares me a bit, but the mileage and price make it tempting, not to mention the color (and no, the interior is gray, not purple). I don't know just how "negotiable" the price is, but in any case I'd probably have to sell my Audi S4 to do the deal - not to mention freeing up the garage space. Or should I wait a few years 'til my kid is out of college and get the newer C4 that I'd really rather have?

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Bill, Contact them and get the VIN, from there you can do a carfax, which should give you a little more history. Should also have service dealer, so you can call them. If you are seriously considering it get a PPI ($200 from a porsche dealer). that said, prices are going down, so if you wait a little you can prob get that C4. Also, buying this one with plans of selling it to get your C4 might not be as lucrative (tho you will be driving a porsche in the meantime )
I just got mine for 42700 with 25k miles and the aero kit with no accidents.
If I were to get serious I'd do the PPI for sure. I skipped the PPI on my 928 because after talking to the folks that maintained the car and having EVERY service record (a 2 inch thick stack) I felt comfortable and wasn't disappointed. I also skipped the the PPI on a previous 944 purchase and paid for that mistake over and over...
i agree with c4cabnyc-but,you just have to be careful. for not much more money, you could get a newer car that is still under warantee. resale prices are not strong-see what you can do.
I suppose with the new model (997?) coming out soon, prices will be under even more pressure. It probably would make more sense to wait and get a newer C4. Although by nature I'm not generally the patient type...
