I was the highest bidder of this particular 2018-porsche-718-cayman-s with a bid of $45250, which didn’t meet the reserve, but Cars & Bids reached out with a deal of $48500 + their 2.5% fees and I said the best I could do was $46200 + 2.5% fee considering they cut the fee from 4.5% to 2.5%, but it didn’t quite close the gap and the deal was off.

But the more I think about this the more I question myself should I just buy it at the suggested deal price? This Cayman S does have:

~ quite a bit mileage (I’m neutral about this as I thought I might get a better deal and I don’t have to cherish it as much considering it already has some mileage on it)

- a lot of modification, including exhaust

- meh color, I like exotic colors

- standard upholstery

+ Auto transmission (pls don’t judge me)

+ ventilated seats

+ southern owned

Is it worth reaching out again? It might have been sold anyway? Or do I need to calm down and wait lol.

    If you’ve got the ~$2k that’s short, just get the car. Life’s too short to be dickering about $2k. I guarantee you won’t give a damn about that money in a week when you are zipping around in that car.
