Default Why isn't this car selling?
Greetings,

Would be interested in perspectives as to why this car isn't selling at this price. Obviously, it has been modified and has serious miles.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/113900989057

As an aside, I am not interested in the vehicle- more about your assessments and the conversation.

Best,

G.

Easy. Convertible. Not desirable.

You will find non OEM, with exception of RUF and Andial, modded cars brings $0.30-0.40 cost of modding value to the market.

Its an impressive car. The Promotive turbo conversions are beasts. I drove a Promotive C4S TT in my hunt for a 993TT and it pulled like a freight train. But, as others have said, this is basically a C2 Cab that has been heavily modified.
