Canapa design in Scotts Valley is "a cut above all the rest" when it comes to collectable cars. Last I visited, he had FOUR 959's in for service (he makes them "Federal Legal) along with several Mercedes Gull Wings. He knows where ALL the cars are and if you want something special, he WILL get it for you, for a price! You name it, he'll find it. The black '87 930S was first quoted to me @ $175k, but after my "a little high" comment the price was corrected to $150K. I would suspect that the cars he offers have been completely gone thru, resealed and "whatever" before they are put up for sale. If you have to ask him the price, you can't afford it............

In the end an ask can be whatever the seller feel he or she is comfortable with. Now whether you get it in 1 month or 3 years that's a whole different story. Some sell cars because they need to, others sell cars because they want to. Which category one fits in will determine the asking price. Canepa will have a car sit for years until their price is met...imo most do not fall into that category or don't want to fall in that category...sometimes it's just nice to sell and move on.

Just a little bump to stir up interest? Still zero people have viewed my 930. I think if someone were in the maket for a show winning caliber car and offered me a 'fair' price, I would consider? Anyone?

Because your car is not worth anywhere near what you are asking. Better off keeping it so you don't lose your mind trying to convince someone it's worth something that it isn't. It's a beautiful car so enjoy it.

This 930 deserves the same consideration, that's all.
The world needs a place for SPECIAL example cars, not the junk that flips between dealers. I stand behind the higher valuation on my 930, not losing my mind, thanks.

Present ask is $69k seems like a fair price to me. Please understand, I just went through this with my Mangusta. I tried telling the world just how nice it was and the German buyer who stepped up, paid $115k, flipped it 6 mos later for $256k (all documented)...

Regarding knowing me and my cars....many do. That is why I shared the Countach and Mangusta stories with ya'll. my other cars were big time award winning cars and I wasn't shy about sharing their quality, they are easily researched here on the Internet. This 930 at $69k, there are a lot of people pondering. It will race right through this valuation in short time, someone gonna step up, I can feel it 
I see where your coming from, why should someone else make the huge money and not you. While that is understandable, it's not always the case. Problem lies with no one really knowing you as the seller. Most big money buyers purchase big money items from sellers whom they dealt with in the past or sellers who are well known in the industry(whatever that industry is). That is why in your case, consignment may be your best option. I have sold many items that have been flipped by others. The way I see it is, I got my offer I could care less what they get. It is what it is..such is life..
