one thing i did notice (and not meaning to be critical) but the front bumper paint match looks darker than the original paint color. especially evident in your avatar photo which has better lighting than the other photos - was the front bumper painted at a different shop or at a later date and not color blended to the hood and fenders?

I bought mine via an ad on AutoTrader 2000 miles away from me after looking at all kinds of sources including Craigslist, Rennlist, Cars.com etc. You might want to consider those types of sources, it is the easiest way for people to see and compare a whole bunch of cars at once. Not everyone who is looking for a 911 is looking on Rennlist.

Looks like the consensus is that I should also post my car #891 on other sites. I thought that I would be weeding out the non-serious buyers by posting it only on my local PCA website. I will start with Rennlist today. Thanks.

FWIW, I was a VERY SERIOUS buyer and not once did I peek at my local PCA site (or Rennlist, 6speedonline, Renntech). Maybe because I had decided at the outset to focus my search first on LOCAL sellers which is why CL and Autotrader were my default sources. Best of luck selling.

nice to hear it all color matches - i am in the market for a 996 in the mid 20's and many i have seen have poorly painted front bumpers with terrible color match - not sure why people cheap out when having the front bumper painted - i remember shopping 993's years ago with the same issue.
