Tips are harder to sell. 100K + miles harder to sell. Getting top dollar for a car requires pretty serious prep work and marketing. Some people just want to move on and do so quickly and set a price accordingly.

I have owned a tip and would agree that you have to find a certain buyer, where the six speed would fit a larger audience. That being said I think you have to price a tip accordingly.

I believe I've "seen" this car, either on this forum, or in the regional PCA newsletter, but I can't find it in either place now. The car location, background, and description sound very familiar. I just don't know if this is the actual owner.
Nevermind. I think I found the car I was thinking of. Other than being a '97 instead of a '95, silver instead of black, a manual instead of a tip, having 80,000+ miles now rather than 6 years ago, and being in Lubbock instead of Longview, they are nearly identical cars.
It's heck on your mind when you get old. At least both cars are Porsches in Texas.

Shadow993, in my quest to find the phantom car of my memory, I ran across another post you had back in April 2011 with a Craiglist listing for a '95 993 for $25,000 in Tyler, TX. You don't think this could be the same car, do you? I didn't think there would be that many '95 993s in the Tyler area???
