Default Need some 993 related advice…

All Concerned,

I have a 1995 993 C2 with 63,136 miles and am considering selling my "baby", but not just to sell it… Thus, I need advice on a fair price, which can be confusing because I saw a similar C2's asking price on AutoTrader at $60K. So, what is a reasonable asking price?

Some additional notes:
- Always serviced by experts in the Atlanta area; Kinetic, Performance Imports, etc.
- Color: Silver
- Milage: 63,136
- Six Speed
- PSS9 System plus sway bars and additional handling upgrades
- Porsche SuperCup chip and breathing kit
- 18" SSR (2pc) wheels

While this car was never wrecked or molested, I ensured that the RPMs were appropriately exercised in a safe environment.

I would appreciate any thoughts on the subject. Thank you.

JM

Sixty is pretty high asking. The wheels, while okay, may turn off buyers who are looking for originality. Do you still have the Cups?

Ask no less than $50K.

Who cares about selling price? Start a bidding war and take multiple deposits from different buyers today.

I agree with the $50 to $55k range.

Wheels are a big turn off, mats look like crap. Pics don't show a garage queen and $60k ish and above is a plain jane '95 993 garage queen territory.

Things that may influence price:
Recent clutch
Recent rack rebuild
Recent struts/dampers
Synchros shift smoothly
Lifter cartridges replaced

Your steering wheel is upside-down.

As you can see, no one here knows. Or really cares.

Take some sage advice: list it on eBay with an unrealistically high reserve price you think your car would be worth in your dreams. It probably won't sell. Do this a few times, and see what it tops out at. Average the final numbers out. That's the market price.

If it DOES go over your crazy high reserve price, then you got the highest dream price you thought your car is worth.

Now, close this thread, because pricing threads are frowned upon.

Trust me, this is sage advice

It looks like the interior is yellowed from nicotine.
