Since you have access to the Internet, and I'm sure you know of eBay, here is a much easier and simple way to find the market value than the Rennlist auction already here:

1. List the car on eBay with an absurdly high reserve. This gives you access to the widest audience.

2. See where the auction pans out. List the car for sale this way several times, over several weeks or months if possible.

3. Average out the final price of each auction.

That's a pretty close indication of market value.
Not so sure about this methodolgy...

When I was shopping all the usual sites and venues, if an ebay auction had an absurdly highy reserve or opening price; myself and I'm sure many others, dont even bother bidding on such out of touch listings.

What would be the point?

As a buyer you don't know the reserve set by the seller so a high reserve isn't a deterrent to bidding.

My 97 C4S is listed on Pelican. My car has a lot more mileage and stories and is a Canadian car.
I am getting lots of interest locally and from Europe since it is in kms. Just another comparable for you. Best bet is to check prices everywhere and assume they will sell for less than asking.

Porsche The main Line recently had a low mileage 993S listed for $125K on their web site. The car was only listed for a couple of weeks before it was sold. So I imagine they either got their asking price or something close to it.

Let me guess-you bought it in 2006, and are thinking of selling.
