You recently had it painted, right?

That's a good question about the value... It's a soft market and a rare enough car there aren't many to compare it with.

If I had to wager, I'm afraid I'd only guess in the $10-$12k range. And I have one too... I'm not trying to be a ball buster. I know of a really nice fully set up track car turbo S that sold in the $20's - but that had a lot of work and a lot of spare parts. I can see a low mileage, pristine silver rose bringing $20 with the right person.

But, these days, you can get early 996s in the $20s with a third or half the mileage yous has... 996s are cool cars and a lot of bang for the buck.

And, for what it's worth, look at some of the deals Lart is getting. Cars that work (or almost work) for just a few thousand... At $9k, is your car really 3 times better than a car with $3k?

Driving it for one day doesn't make it a daily driver!

If I do sell it, then I sure as hell won't let Rennlist know...but rest assured, it will remain in my care for a good while (hopefully)

No. Seriously Lart, what would you do if you acquired my car?
