Any current larger .jpgs instead of those .gif files? Close ups etc..?

I'm sincerely curious to what a $70k 993 C2S looks like.
It looks just like my car with $35,000 in the back seat in a Cheez Its box.

If the car is perfect, no mods including stereo, have litronics and you are the original owner with all records I'll pay $43,000 and pick it up next week..
You and many others such as dealers. Is the market as good as it was 5-6 years ago? No. But this 11,000 mile car, assuming it's near-virgin status, should bring far more than your number.

$43K is definitely low balling.

fwiw, here are the prices based on TrueCar's new used pricing website. It tracks all current cars for sale to give a low, average, and high. There are two cars of the same description and mileage in the high section (plus $60k.) One of them is probably the OP's car. Also I noticed that they sometimes get the 993 Turbo mixed into the high sections (because the ad isn't specific and TrueCar just links the info from the ad.)

Walking into your own garage and seeing the car of your dreams: priceless. For myself it's what the car is worth to me that counts. Putting a $ figure on that is near impossible. No BS.

To the OP sorry for sending your FS thread into a prcing debate (again). You have what looks to be a nice, very low mile, unmolested, last-model year C2S in a desireable colour combo. GLWS.

Let's see. I'm $5500 off the mid range price. This car has no options to speak of. I'm right on the low range.
I have cash and can pick it up next week.

A little room for the bargaining is appropriate, don't you think???

Strange we haven't heard back from the OP, and we know he's logging in. Those photos look like scans from a magazine.

That car, if accurately described and the PPI checks out, would be priced to move if it were advertised in the $50K-$55K range.

The "fuzz" on the images are a "moire" pattern that happens when a screen printed image/photo is scanned. The screen is visible. These pics are either
scanned from a magazine or book.

Seems weird.

If it is from a magazine, the photographer is the worst professional photographer ever (no offense to the OP).
Come on! In front of a garage! Those are definitely not from a magazine.
