I sold two 944's. Got top dollar for them on Autotrader, from buyers that never heard of Rennlist! I got $8200 for an '89 S2 that my mechanic offered $5k for (and thought he was doing me a favor)!
It's all supply and demand. You have a nice car in great shape, someone will eventually pay what you are asking for it (within reason, of course). But that someone wont be here on Rennlist.

I just took off my hardtop for the season yesterday. The weather here is definitely improving.
Congrats on the sale. We need a XXX--SeeMyTurboDay -- when your new one comes in!
If we coordinate it, I can probably even get you a pic of your TT from the air as you drive down a back NW road. (Might not be as compelling as a regular close-up--but you can consider it.)
Hope your TT is better than you imagine it will be. (Yesterday I happened to compare the specs of the TT with the Carrera GT as published in Road and Track. While the GT is an amazing car--the TT is the wildly better buy that even outperforms the GT under some conditions. Good choice.)

Oh my gosh - that would be soooo neat to get a shot from the air. I may take you up on that - I live in Newport Hills - we are very close. I cross the island every morning on my way to work. Thank you neighbor. Hope to meet you this spring at a coffee & cars drive. :-)

Congrats on the sale.
I drive by Roger Jobs, up here in Bellingham, and see what they want for 996s and wonder of they're really getting those prices. They must be in the ballpark, good to know.

Well I probably shouldn't out of respect to the new owner, but if we just keep this to ourselves, it sold for $63,995 (2004 with 55k miles, fully loaded, original sticker was $100k, and included CPO). The dealer up here said he is actually buying up cars from around the country at those low prices and bringing them up here because he has a shortage of cars! If anyone wants a contact name, pm me. I am quite pleased. I'll be back to visit and show you pics of my new Turbo. Meanwhile, don't sell out too low guys!

So good to know your C4S has sold, and for a strong price. Now you can look forward to your new Turbo...I'll bet you'll have trouble waiting until your Porsche arrives.

yes- if I knew that I was getting a turbo soon I would have a hard time thinking of anything else- congrats on the sale - your car was sharp so I am not completely suprised that it brought all the $$
