If this car is really clean, I would expect the owner to be asking $20k or even a bit more.

A multi-point inspection will accompany that and you'll like need to replace things that just go bad with wear and tear.
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.

I have a chance to buy a local 2000 porsche 911 with 75k miles it's a coupe not convertible and a 6 speed but it's pretty base no options it's one owner and has service history. What's a ball park range for it. Thank you.
Agree with Bill's assessment on value. You should get a pre-purchase inspection so that you can get an objective picture of the health of the car. It's not surprising to dump $5,000 into these cars after a sale, but some lose their shirts because all they could see is a vision of them driving a Porsche not caring about anything that could be seriously wrong with the car. They get it home and realize they just bought a money pit.
I wish you all the best with the possible purchase.

Agree here with this assessment. If you plan on keeping the car and you care for its longevity, you'll want to have a thorough inspection done. Even with that, you'll likely want a major service done if it hasn't been done already. A multi-point inspection will accompany that and you'll like need to replace things that just go bad with wear and tear. You'll hear the terms "sweating fluid/oil" and "cracked" a lot.
I think $20k is closer than $15k. The days of picking up 996s for $15k are fading fast. 986 prices are up too. I got my 986 S for $10k. I haven�t seen any that low for s long time except for rollers.
I've been looking at past sales and see clean 996 going for high teens low 20's. Will take a look at it tomorrow and keep you guys posted. But meanwhile keep your ideas coming.
I agree...Paladio Metallic (like mine). Not that unusual, but sure is nice looking. Worry more about the history, service records, and mechanical components.
I bought my car (2000 MT, 60K when I bought it) a couple years ago for $21K. It had extensive maintenance receipts, upgrades to the exhaust and suspension and was a non-common color (Ocean Blue). This all adds up to confirming the estimates posted already.
One owner with full service records should command slight premium, but service records could also reveal persistent issues which would negatively affect value. thorough review of the service records is in order.
I think what you are seeing is more representative. When I was shopping for my 996 in 2018 the cars in the mid teens were all clapped-out. If this car is really clean, I would expect the owner to be asking $20k or even a bit more.
I have to agree with 808Bill on this one. The 2000 model cars did suffer from so called "Y2K syndrome". I'd be careful with this one. An professional inspection would be in order.
I bought my 2000 C4 Cab for $15k but put $10k into it. So, it's "worth' $25k to me now w/no known issues.
It's for sale. Everything's been fixed. IMS is done. Make me an offer. LOL!
Can't state it "briefly." I prepared a list for potential sellers of the cost of parts and service (I don't do my own work) and it covers almost an entire page single spaced.
It involves fixing things that just started to add up.
In general, the major costs involved servicing the roof hydraulics (inspection, new lines and refill cylinders; an entirely new brake system/flush (all new rotors, pads, s/s lines and master cylinder; diagnosing/fixing a problem w/the central locking system (CLS) which ended up requriing a new driver's side door handle; replacing the driver's side window regulator; buying a used set of Carrera II wheel w/tires; replacing a few bolt-on parts (right visor, ashtray delete and the rollbar cover); and, fixing the gas gauge and fuel tank breather vave (that I stupidly "broke" by repeatedly overfilling the tank).
BTW, I just rejected a $22k offer for the car as well.
