Wow... nice car, nice price, and local.
I'm looking at buying a 951 for my wife to have her own, but not until next spring. (After doing Road America she is 100% hooked and wants to do more DE's but for now I just don't quite have the cash ready to buy her her own car.)
Good luck with the sale. If you're still sitting on it after I collect my annual bonus in Feb/Mar of next year, I'll be in touch.

:Thank you to all 944 Turbo RennListers !!Over the past 6 years, you've educated me and helped me assemble, maintain and modify this car for 6 dependable years of DE's while still retaining its street manners. You are an amazing resource of experience, helpfulness and just plain, common-sense when it comes to repairs, modding priorities and resale values.
My car sold at my asking price in four days--I could never had done it without you all. I'll miss you. Fare well and keep on Porsching!
Cheers! Bob in Chicago
