Did I mention it comes with two sets of rear lights (clear & the red ones installed now).

PCCB's are over $20,000.00 Don't think anyone is doing that

You mean the 991.1's are the last NA Carrera's?? They went turbo for 991.2?? Nobody told me

Anyway, it's your car. I've always liked the car back when I originally found it back in the Johnny Mac days. Please post BaT listing when active. Hope it goes to someone on RL here. Good luck! Thanks.

The price is the deciding factor here. If the car was white, black, or silver it would be in the low/mid $80K's. You decide the premium on a PTS color which seems to be more common now as well. The premium is $10K-$15K in my opinion.
It's a beautiful blue, and nicely spec'd. But at $120K, we're into 911-50 Edition pricing and the choice wouldn't even be close for me.

GLWS, will be fun to watch the auction. It only takes one emotional buyer who has to have Mexico Blue....

They aren't big on the newer cars. I think their speciality is older models.

A few 991's they've had

** My prediction. Mexico Blue will not meet reserve unless it's in the lower $90K's.

I like the car, but the comps and the current market speaks for itself. You really think it's appreciated since you bought it? Not sure what you eventually paid, but Johnny Mac wanted $115K with 6K miles back like what, 2 years ago?

Let Mrrdstr stew. Lol.

The car is worth $90k, perhaps $95k to the right buyer. Personally, the color is a huge negative, as is the standard interior. Regardless, some folks just think they want to sell and waste the rest of our time. Best to ignore. Now I will take my own advice.

The "Gary" syndrome is alive and well. I first found this disconnected from reality guy. A $150K Carrera S sticker package dealers couldn't move with $20K discounts.

But Gary has the "only manual". Needless to say after like 2 years and one price drop, the car is still for sale ...

I emailed him a year ago for entertainment, and he's serious. Offered him like $200K as a joke and he said no. BUT,, BUT,,

Honestly, thats the kind of thinking that leads to "reserve not met" and no-sale. Maybe in a dozen years that car will have tons of extra value, but in todays market, you might be putting too much of a premium on your perceived rarity...

IMHO, anything even near the $120K ask is a no go because:
  • Most of the guys who are willing to throw big bucks at newer cars that are really "special" are buying GT cars, Spyders, R's, etc.,
  • Many of the guys who want breathtaking performance are realizing that the .2 GTS offers a HUGE horsepower jump over the .1's
  • Your asking price is now well within the range of a .1 Turbo (capital T).

Thank you!
I am happy that HFS is up and running smoothly after the mod-driven failure to mod. This thread is key for my learning about the ins-and-outs of the P cars. Currently I am on the Audi team... and I've been very active on a couple of Audi related forums.... but I hear the calling ;-) ... sooooon !

Tuff crowd here let’s just say the reserve will be very reasonable.

I found the GT3 of my liking but I can’t justify the 30k over asking by the selling dealer either.

I felt myself getting dumber as I read that ebay description. I'm pretty sure that guy is a Nigerian prince who has emailed me with a few "opertunities" in the past.
