Seems like nobody is selling their coupes, mostly cabrios for sale.

I still want to do this with my tip but I'm afraid it's too daunting for me

Some guy in NC bought my tip coupe and converted it to a 5 speed for the track in a weekend.

Yeah but I'm a noob. Not even gonna pretend I'm a major gearhead.

How much do you think someone would charge to do this? I would love my car 10x more if it were a manual.

It's probably pretty expensive and then you would have a car that is far from original, not good for resale. I'd just keep looking, they do show up, maybe not close to you but a PPI from a good shop near the seller would help tell you the condition. Sometimes RL members will go look at a nearby car if you ask.

Canada doesn't have a lot for sale generally and almost everything is over 12000 USD... and you have to pay a lot of extra money for imports from the US . I really lucked out and got mine for 5k USD and it was definitely because it was a tip lol. I dunno if resale really matters because no one wants a tip up here. Even if the conversion cost was under 4k it'd probably be worth it for what I paid.

For those in the hunt for a 968 I would suggest placing a WTB ad in the Pano magazine. That is what I did and in a few months was contacted by a seller that was ready to move to a Cayman. He had his 968 for 18 years and knew the original owner. All records to day one. Now mine.

6 speed transmissions are not easy to come by. All in all, this could be a $7-10k job. At that point you are left with a car that has had major mods. Probably hard to sell.
