Default FS: 1997 993 Guards Red/Beige

With some reluctance, I've decided to part with my 993 in order to find a late model Porsche Cayman S. Here's a link to more info: http://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-s...ngId=349219285

Hate to be a nudge, but don't you still have to be a member to offer cars for sale here? Keeps the place going. Nice car.

Looks like its in great shape. Just sold my 97 with all the necessary upgrades. If you get this price, then I sold mine for 10K too cheap!

Thanks for the comments regarding price. I set my price on AutoTrader at high end of the market to see what kind of response I would get. I would sell to a Rennlist member for less... any offers?

Good luck with sale at the price, but suspect you won't.

I, for one, am all in favor of astronomically high 1997 C2 prices. That being said, your price is in dreamland and trolling to RL members and offering the car for less is tacky. How much less? 25%?

Beautiful original car. As per the rules, you need to list a price as well as be a member to post a car for sale.

As to the comments on your asking price, I say let the market do what it will. Original, lower mile, manual transmission, NB coupes are getting very hard to find. If a car is listed and sells in a day or two, as has been the case here recently, it could be argued that the price was too low. I see no harm in raising the bar.

His car looks very much like mine (and my first name happens to be Paul too!), and if I was gonna go to the Dark Side (read: H2O cooled) it would be in the strongest Cayman I could find!!
