All info has been very appreciated and informative. I really hate to see car go but I'm expanding my business. Hope to put a 993 S back in the garage as soon as this is all done. The wider body just appeals to me a little more.

It looks like a nice car! How long have you owned it?

No that was two weeks ago when the guy with the 1998 C2S showed up, posted a for sale non ad, answered a few questions and hasn't been seen since, that one?

Just curious, why do you own a 993? How long have you had yours?

Why is there a fancy rug in your garage?

Exactly.

I'm tired of these abuses and the incompetence of IB or most board moderators who are completely impotent about doing anything about those who don't follow the rules.

So I have my own rules now to helps stop abusive threads like this:

I have an easy solution to "For Sale" ads like these by new non-members that are thinly disguised as "Whats My Car Worth" posts:

Dont help new non-members with any advice or answers anymore. Just do not respond unless they have ponied up for a membership

And the bigger problem is this:

GT3 RS 4.0 "White Unicorn"

1995 Carrera 4 (993)

I agree. Far more annoying.

I guess the problem is that people who are new do not know it is abusing the system or our sense of etiquette. And I can imagine that the mods do this stuff for free so you can't really fault them when a lot of the success of this set up is the self regulation that members do who are invested in keeping this wealth of valuable info together.

Nonetheless, if someone could help me determine the value of my 97 C4S. It is the black one, you know.

It has 115k(miles not killmeters), is totally stock except for the parts that are not, has no records other than the notes I wrote on McDonalds napkins, was driven irresponsibly but was serviced by me(I promise). It has no interior, was driven on roads, was rained and snowed on. It was hit by an idiot and repaired by a makeshift, corner-cutting body shop.

I have a Polaroid of a drawing of a cell phone photo taken on my flip phone but can't seem to upload it. I keep hitting the phone against the monitor but it won't transfer. Help.

$50000. Is that a good price? By the way, could someone drop the appraisal off at my house since my son's best friend's uncle posted this for me.

Thanks. Is tomorrow to soon to get the appraisal? If I become a member can you do it this afternoon?

Sarcasm. Bye.

Michael

I love the "What's my car worth" question from the guy who just bought the car

How much for my blue '95? It has about 107k but several thousand of those miles were spent on the track not breaking. Come on, it's a proven driver! Sorry ... could not resist. I am in a goofy mood as usual.

How about a "what's my car worth" forum. This 993 "technical" forum doesn't seem to be too technical to me. Perhaps because all the technical questions have been answered and are therefore static but the pricing questions are rolling and change with time.

I just laugh when I read a description like "Everything is original"!! How in the world can someone say that with a 16-20 year old car?
