Default '98 Carrera S For Sale

Folks,

Most of you will remember that I had briefly posted my car for sale about a year ago. I was hasty with that decision and upon reconsidering decided to keep it, at least for awhile (I apologize again to those who showed keen interest at the time... I'm sure you all ended up with great cars anyway).

Thanks.

That is priced to sell, and then some. GLWS.

...but how does one "move forward" from a '98 C2S? Turbo, I guess...

Great car! That has to be one of the lowest priced 'S' cars around. You will have offers to buy before the weekend is over. Priced mine at $29.5K last week and turned down a full price offer when I realized that I just couldn't sell it.

I remember the post from last year, such a nice one, best of luck with the sale. Hope it goes to someone who appreciates it. If anyone rules this car out for too many miles, you just don't get it...

Excellent example of a well-cared-for 993. Your history on here, as well as the comprehensive ad, should make this an easy sell.

Good luck!

Thanks to all for your kind comments (Luke and Ilko, you're both classy guys).

Terry, she came to me wonderfully cared for... simply a great car.

Terry - that is a GREAT picture! I remember seeing that one years ago. Jeff - you will sell this so fast, I have no doubt. Great car and I hope it goes to a worthy owner; hopefully a fellow Rennlister.
