Default Package sale

For sale as a package. 40,000 realistic value is 67K.

1987 S4 Auto red, 157000 miles on the chassis and 300 on the motor. This is an early car with flip up spoiler.
Valued at $25,000 at frenzy by one of THE best market watcher and 928 evaluator.

1989 triple black Auto. 120,000 miles. Valued $15,000.

Over $27,000 in new and used parts, as valued from 928 international. Heads, two sets of wheels, so much to list. I have researched and documented all parts and part numbers.

I will reply back to serious offers with as much detail as requested.

This is being listed to 928 specific groups for about two weeks. Then it will go to BAT And other groups. At that time I may split them up.

send me a private message if you would like the full monti.

I think you would be better off selling things separately,
I think you will get more cash that way .

Default Thanks

I don’t disagree, however I was hoping to pass along a really good deal to someone on the list. At this point it’s not about the money so much as finding the right person for these machines.

I love these personal valuations to justify an ask price.
...on a forum, with very little pics or info.
...as a group purchase, because I'm too lazy to sell.
...or I'll list it on BaT, just to 'threaten the pot'.
GLWS, and BaT... Cuz your not going to sell it here.
I apologize if I sound harsh. But really... put in some effort, split the weird-*** lot, or lower your price. Thx.

I see your Pax River decal, my wife was an NCIS agent there 2004-2008. If you decide to split it up let me know, I’m in the market for a nice S4.

Is there a way to take a "wide angle" view of the part you have for sale? Also, do you have to BAT-like photos of the cars you have for sale? GLWS...and your "RV-life"!

Well what are they say if you don’t have anything good to say. You speak of which you know not. I have catalog and priced every single part number of the extra parts that I have. I am posting on here to try and give somebody a deal. So keep your comments to yourself
I am on travel and do not not have access to the cars or the database that I will use to answer valid questions.

You posted in a public forum with about the most knowledgeable 928 folks in the world and you're complaining about their valuation of what you have for sale and how it was presented - seems like a non-starter in this group.

The Tech forums also aren't supposed to have for sale items in them so likely this entire theread will get taken down unless you're a pid member, and if you are, should create a proper for sale ad in The Marketplace section and then a single post over here that links to that for sale thread, maybe with one photo.

Beautiful red car. I will not comment on the valuation, sales strategy, etc.
Just curious- where is the triple black? Good luck. If I ever did buy a 928, it would certainly be from a forum member with a long history, so I don't think you are off-base by posting... but as Pete points out, there is the Marketplace section for all that.
Cheers

This may be the only FOR SALE ad I've ever seen with NOT FOR SALE signage prominently featured in one of the pics.

I wasn’t complaining about the valuation at all.
This forum and the folks in it are what kept me captivated with my car.

I have met many and swapped parts and suggestions for years.
My sole purpose of posting “lightly “ here was to pass on what several folks at Frenzy thought was too good of a deal.

For the right person, this package is perfect.

In a few weeks I will be posting in a different venue that will have about 60 photos and spreadsheets for parts and maintenance actions, along with video.
cars will be separated and away we go.

Again,
purpose to post here was to try and match up a fantastic deal to a specific desire.
The only reason I posted here was to try and give back to the group. My bad.

Haha, just saw that.

We had an estate sale and that was a left over sign.
that tool box is all zinc plated hardware and brackets. 928 specific hardware.

Thanks Adam.
We moved into an RV and sold everything.
I have the cars in a storage facility now. I am looking at buying a small airplane.
so I am probably starting a completely new chapter.
we are currently looking for property in Kentucky, so maybe the right one will come along.
I had not expected to start selling these until they were completed. But our plans changed and moved up two years.
