FEELER: 993 C2 for sale
Price is 30K
I've had this car for 4 years and never had any major issues outside of regular maintenance. I'm considering putting my car up for sale because a car like this deserves more attention than I can give it at the moment. I also like to modify my cars and there's not that much aftermarket support for these cars. I also have another porsche in the family (a water drinker!! gasp!) so I guess I could get my porsche fix when I need it. Anyhow, I'm young and I have plenty of time to get back into a porsche, so I'm going to do the smart (stupid) thing and put my porsche up for sale.
I'm not sure how much to ask for it, as price ranges are fairly wide. However, I feel that with the valve guide issue corrected, service records, and desirable modifications, $30k wouldn't be too far off, no?
1996 Grand Prix White Carrera C2
94.3K miles
3rd Owner
Maintenance:
All records since the 2nd owner (30K miles, I'll have to make sure though)
MODS
FACTORY OPTIONS
The only notable option is the limited-slip differential. I will double check though.
NEEDS
Last thing, my car was in a very minor accident that involved body work only. It was taken to a very reputable shop and they did a fantastic job. The work consisted of repairing the passenger rear fender, but no bondo/fillers were used and the paint work is excellent. You seriously wouldn't have been able to tell if I didn't tell you.
Below are pics of my car with BBS REs on it. It has Volk Racing TE37s on it as shown in my signature. Thanks for reading guys.

NEEDS
- One tab on the sunroof broke which prevents the wind deflector from folding down completely when attempting to close the sunroof. Probably an easy fix, but I never had the time.

Ahh! It was these pictures that inspired me to get into another P-car when I was so close to purchasing a white E46 M3. If this was last October, I wouldn't have thought twice about paying $30k for this example. I would imagine you can get at least $33k from the right buyer. The new owner will be very happy and will receive compliments all day long. Good luck!

Man, I can't believe you're selling your car. I'd be all over it but it's bad timing right now. GL with the sale.

Nice car. I especially like the bottom front and bottom rear spoilers and the low stance, and the BBS's.
Sent you a PM - I'm in the market, looking mostly at 87-89 911s and some 993's.
