Default Feeler and price recommendations

Hey all,

Have been a proud 996 Cab owner since January, but am potentially moving, in which case I will have to sell my 911. Specifics: 2002 C2 Cabriolet, 72k miles but new engine and clutch (have documentation) less than 30k miles ago. Black 19" wheels which I personally think look fantastic. Engine oil changed < 2k miles ago, new motor mounts and serpentine belt a few weeks ago. She runs great, I've never had any problems. Located in Atlanta. How much do you think she's worth? Couple of (not fantastic) pics attache

d.

tip or 6spd? What are the options list? Any documented maintenance/service history? Clean Car Fax?

You know someone is going to ask about the IXX since this is RL afterall.

GLWS. Nice car.

I don't mean to be a dick by I'm just Curious:
Why do people always say, I'm selling my car because I'm moving? Is it like furniture that needs to be changed when the house is changed?

Well if one is genuinely moving out of the country and can't take it with them, it appears to be less suspicious and erases some doubts or motives on why the car is being sold, especially having owned it a short time.

Now if I was selling mine, I'd just come clean and say I was selling it due to being injected with too much fear from RL.

Sell it, these cars will suck you dry....and yes that's a double entendre. Gorgeous looks, fantastic handling....when its not in the shop milking your bank account. Lease a new one or buy a post 2009.

Alright, I'll stop venting....

Thanks everyone. Forgot to include the details. 6MT, leather, power everything, BOSE speakers, aftermarket nav touchscreen with Bluetooth audio, phone, etc. No accidents, clean carfax.

It has honestly run flawlessly, including the 800 mile drive from Oklahoma to Georgia (straight shot, only stopping for gas). I viewed the new engine and clutch as a plus when I bought it, obviously others do not. PPI before my purchase came back clean.

My move is to NYC, depending on exactly where I live, I may bring it with me, but doubt I could justify the trouble and expense of owning a convertible P car in NYC. That being said, I LOVE this car and would hate to see it go, so might figure out a way to make it work. As a side, if anyone on RL has a Porsche in NYC, your thoughts?

Any paperwork with the new engine?

Pic of engine serial number would also help.

Yup, the link (https://rennlist.com/forums/996-foru...te-engine.html) Rubik posted is mine. I even called the shop who did the job to see exactly what happened. It took some digging, but they eventually confirmed it was a coolant issue and a crate engine + new clutch was put in (under warranty).
