Since when has anyone bought a quality "Made in America" product?

Also, as was stated, what in the world is someone concerned about country of origin and domestic provenance doing buying a German car?

buying american is a ****ty dog whistle

we are in the age of the internet and the only thing people should be concerned about is the quality of life for the slave kids making our products, not simply the country of origin

Thinking of selling my 996, what would be a good price to ask for it?

About 100k miles now, I've owned it for 16 years.

Arctic Silver C2 over Metropol Blue, partial Aerokit.

If it's a manual, in good shape, I'd say 22-25 would be a quick sale.

Shall we guess the year and everything else? I would ask $40,000. Seems like a good number based on what we know. Good luck.

It's a Coupe, pretty clean car, don't recall all the options, but that's easy to pull from under the hood. I've done most of the maintenance myself, I have a long log-book, 16 years in the making...

IMS was never changed, my mechanic inspected it about 10 years ago and said the double row ones don't need changing.

BTW - go to the Bring A Trailer website and research values for comparable cars. Lots of data there and easy to access.

Looks nice! I'd ask 30k and take whatever you can get above 25

I agree $22K would be a very quick sale 🤑🤑

Thanks all, I've enjoyed the heck out of this car for a long time, it's now time to pass it on.

I'm looking to get a lightly used Panamera 971.

I owned a 970.2 Panamera 4S (2016) for a couple of years and miss it dearly. An awesome car with somewhat understated looks, great performance and which also happens to be very practical.
