What value would you place on my car if you were selling it (build sheet added)

The ones who can afford to drop $35K for a C2 are usually looking for a lower mile car. So you do end up with a small pool of "right" buyers (as someone stated above).
You are going to have to be prepared to wait for the right buyer, or drop the price if you are in a hurry. ... Or maybe get lucky and that "right buyer" shows up today... no way to tell.

You have to remember that the newly acquired "hurley" was priced at $37.5. Check that car out, and compare. The price seems fair given the rebuild, but a touch high given the miles. $32-33 imho

Sounds high to me
Just spent the last 6 months looking before I pulled the trigger last month
Don't think there are too many for 35k with over 100k miles on her.
GLWS.

If a prospective buyer takes the time to drive a few cars in the $25-$30k range, and then this one, Ryan will get his asking price without issue.
No affiliation other than I've driven the car briefly when Kie owned it, and I chatted with Ryan a year or so ago when I happened to see him at a local detailer.

I think the reality is no matter the mods, engine rebuild, etc. MOST but not all buyers are mileage obsessed. When 993's roll over 100k miles they take a huge hit in value and not only that but they take significantly longer to sell even at lower prices.
I don't agree with peoples logic as condition, documentation, and repairs/maint etc are king to me but sadly most buyers don't think that way. Sold my last 993 w/ 157k miles to another RL'r who loves it but I sold it cheap even though it was nicer than most 993 I have seen.
So if your not in a hurry wait for the out of the box buyer. My gut says is would sell quick $29-30k. $32-35k will take you a while.

I suggest taking out the added mods (ones that are easily removeable- deck, seats, etc...) and sell them separately or add on top of the sale price.
Good luck on your sale.

I think it's about $5,000 too high. If you leave the price at $35,000 and it's negotiated down to $30,000, that price would still be too high for what most buyers are looking to pay for a 111,000 mile car, IMHO.

I believe 35 k is high. I have a similar car with 81 k miles (no engine rebuild or LWF) and "may" be able to sell for low 30s but contantly get low balled in the high 20s. People are afraid of mileage. I just decided to keep it.

OP: You need to make this a major item and point this out clearly and in detail. If this was a full top end rebuild. 35k is a great price and should be easy sale.

RC, you need to put the rebuild first on the build sheet or, at the very least, make it bold.
I think the price is fine at $35,000 for a Rothsport-built motor that has 46,000 miles on it. Might even be a tad low?

Thanks for the feedback on the rebuild info. It's has quite the Rothsport build with a nice checkout price of $10,500
