Default Another 993 pricing feedback request

Thx in advance for reading this and giving your 2 cents re. asking price.

Replacement 993 is coming, so the existing 993 has to go .

Polar silver 95 C2
black interior
81k miles
completely documented back to day 1
originally a Florida/North Carolina car
heated winter storage in Canada

clean Carfax
front end respray (right front corner cosmetic single vehicle accident - metalwork repair)
euro Turbo front bumper, Turbo front fender liners, Better Bodies ducts
new headlight lenses
new 3M clear on front
basket handle delete and color matched grille & Carrera emblem
Ruf a-pillar inserts
mild window tint

8k miles on RS flywheel & clutch

PSS9s
M030 sways
Corner balanced, lowered and aligned to RS specs
18" OEM twists (solid)
steering rack bracket
Yokohama Advan Neova AD07s - brand new tires on rear

heated seats
OEM floormats
Panasonic Cd/Mp3 head
upgraded front speakers

I'd say interior 8.5/10, exterior 8.5/10

Thinking about $33k for Rennlister (in Canada).... Opinions?

Hey. Im from T-dot. Just sold my daily driver and now looking for a 993 or early 996. You got more details on the service history of the car? Can you PM details?. Thanks.

I just sold my '95 C2 with 71K miles, not nearly as documented or with anything like your level of modifications, but cosmetically and mechanically a very clean OEM car...asked $33.5 got $32.5 USD. It took a while but I believe the car was well worth the price. If you have some time I believe you could do better, especially given the time of year.

Matt,

I think it will most likely sell for low $30's (US dollars). If you're realy lucky, you might get mid-$30's.

Why are you selling this one and buying another? 993 cup?

Ok, so I'm hearing around $33k, thx for the feedback so far guys.

Oh, and Mark - it's a surprise. Not a cup car - I wish !

You should get Matt's car: beautiful color (of course, I am biased), tastefully upgraded and Matt is an awesome guy
In my opinion, forget the early 996: the 3.4 liter engine can be a time bomb (RMS and/or cylinder sleeves issues that necessitate replacing the engine $$$)

PM Matt already. Hopefully I can see it next week.

993 is definitely my dream car.

Arnaud - thx for the kind words .

b5audia4 is coming up to look at the car this weekend. Pending his decision, I will put the car up for sale in about a week and will post pics at that time.

It will be sad to see her go, especially since the front end respray looks damn good...!

I've added a few things I'd forgotten to the list in the first post.
