What to do? What to do?
I found the perfect 993TT, Black/black, sport seats, nicely optioned. less miles.
Unfortunatly, it will cost me a bushel basket full of money to get into it, then the tweaking begins; RUFS, suspension, pedals, etc, etc,
I'm starting to think that I should take the advise of the majority of you and keep it.
Of course.... it the right guy with the deep pockets came along, I may just part with it.

I have been looking for a C4S for some time now (at a different price/miles level).....from what I have seen out there, yours should definitely sell over $50K but may take the right marketing effort to find the buyer who will appreciate it. Far lesser cars have traded recently in the upper $40s.

Egan's had so many cars, trucks and bikes, he's become a master at rationalizing his next purchase, and made a nice career out of articulating the process.

Everytime I pick up a Road & Track, or Cycle World, his column is the first place I go to.

I think the value is in the low $50K range. Flat-out gorgeous car. Good luck.

Nice setup. Did you sell it or keep it?

I've had some interest, but its safely tucked away under a cover in a heated garage until the snow quits flying here in Flagstaff,AZ (early April).
At that time, I'll start thinking about it again.
Thanks for the reminder...its about time to go take the cover off and take a peek.

Thanks for getting back to me. Car like that should be parked in the living room as centerpiece! Please drop me a line if you decide to sell it - marksmithhome@hotmail.com. April is good, as am in Canada, with currently a lot less snow than you guys have, for the Olympics.

Bob, as a data point, had someone make an unsolicited inquiry at the grocery store Saturday for $60k.

The guy couldn't believe Bertha is a '97.

Several want to believe it will sell for top dolllar but the reality is it probably wont.

With only 26k on the clock, it needs an owner who will drive it!!

I bought it with 15,000 miles on the clock and put the 12,000 on it in 18 months of the 33 months I've owned it. I figure to put 5,000 mountain, high speed rural miles on it anually with nearly no in town driving.

Clean, story-less 993s are becoming harder and harder to find. I spent nearly two years finding my C2S and it has four times the mileage yours has.

I think selling it will cause you a great deal of regret, especially when you get the 993 bug again.

Of course, life is short and there are a lot of fast cars out there to own. This is the first time though I've found one that I don't think I could live without.

Scott,
You shouldn't be parking Bertha in a grocery store parking lot!
Run away carts...old ladies that can't drive....door dingers....etc
But thanks for the baseline value!

Thats more like it!! I have put 36k on mine in 7 years---I work from home and have multiple vehicles so I dont drive as much as the average person. On average of 5k a year to get groceries or run errands is a still a lot of fun!! Im due for a long roadtrip this summer.

It was a quick in-and-out stop to pick up snacks for the Superbowl.

Kim ran in and I waited in the car.

You know me better than leave her in the parking lot
