I think you've priced it too low. I suggest taking it OFF the market for 45-60 days when the "Porsche selling season" really heats up. Worst case scenario, take it to Hershey and plaster it with M&M decals. I see a cross promotion in the works

My wife said the same thing yesterday.
Good luck with the sale of your unique car.

Which is why I've always said those reports aren't worth the paper they are written on.

That Car Fax business has to be one of the most profitable with no risk.

Did you do your own visual inspection, or is the repair that good?

maybe it was a mistake. My dad bought his car new and a couple of years later when we went to sell it we got a carfax and in it said there was front end damage as well! The car was never in any accident and would only go to the dealer for service! So just be weary of what that place says and GL with the sale!

I'm sorry Mike! Yes, the car looks as good as new!

Accidents take some time to appear on CarFax. Sometimes years. And sometimes they appear without an actual accident ever occurring. Get the police report or fight it with CarFax.

I run both CarFax and AutoCheck when purchasing vehicles these days. This is after on one car that I was looking at the CarFax showed side damage, while the AutoCheck showed a salvage title. I called the local DMV to confirm and sure enough, the salvage title was on the record. No sign of it on CarFax and yet CarFax had the side damage that AutoCheck wasn't showing...

Unless that place where you bought the car knew the previous owner and history of the car they may not have known about the damage either.
