Default Thinking about selling

Well as the title says. Never get to drive the car so it just sits in the garage. Not sure what to ask except going by what kbb or nada says. Thought I would ask everyone's opinion on here or if anyone would be interested.

Here are the details:

Just under 44,000 miles
#1,339 of 2,234 North American 968 coupes
# 82 of 718 1994 NA 968 coupes
1 of 220 F8 Midnight Blue metallic coupes(most popular metallic on 968 coupes)
1 of 9 F8 Midnight Blue metallic coupes paired with the light grey/black interior
Factory options include:
F8 metallic paint
TS partial leather in light grey/black
XD4 painted crest center caps
220 limited slip differential (desired option)
403 17" cup1 wheels (another desired option)
437 full power (8 way) driver's seat

Here are some pictures.......

Ugh... why not just like, drive it?

If you must sell,
How many previous owners?
Docs and records?
Recent service?
Any spare parts?
Accident history?
Undocumented history like voluntary body or paint work?
Performance mods?
Cosmetic mods?
Wear and tear?
Current pics if ya got 'em.

Good luck whatever you decide...

How many previous owners? Only one before me which was a family friend.
Docs and records? All the documents were at the previous owners house and could not be obtained due to death.
Recent service? Oil change at 43k
Any spare parts? No extra parts
Accident history? No accidents
Undocumented history like voluntary body or paint work? None
Performance mods? Completely stock
Cosmetic mods? None
Wear and tear? Normal wear on driver seat and some trim on the rocker panel needs replacing.
Current pics if ya got 'em. Will have to get those posted up.

Sounds interesting.....but it sounds like it is too expensive for me....going to most likely be a 968 owner on Tuesday with a 159K mile car. Where are you located?

I stopped reading at limited slip.

don't be in a hurry, and you shouldn't take a penny less than (pm sent).

it's probably worth a little more than that.

good luck.

Good luck with the sale...there was a white 986 that went for sale a few weeks ago on Autotrader with 68K miles, listed at $13,989 with no pictures, and it was taken down a few days later, I assume it sold ASAP. It was at the "Red Nolan" dealership chain.

I would think it would be at a minimum $17-18K considering the mileage. Hold off until the right buyer comes along. I would try to get maximum history and maintenance records or they could hurt your selling price.

I agree. Your car is a coupe with the right options, low miles and a decent color. You should be able to get good money for it.
