Clean up your tailpipes and you'll get another $1K. Final selling point on a car is how it looks, and those are a mess. Spray some Goo B Gone on those and wipe em clean.

mite a older picture. They've been cleaned since then, but thanks for the googone tip.
With 130k I'm guessing $20k tops. I've got a 2002 with 86k and doubt I could get more than $22k for it and I just dumped $5k in preventative maintenance this past spring.

Map what you're saying is a tip car, no carbon interior, no documentation of maintenance, curbed wheels... is worth that much? Maybe down in Florida for a A-typical old man living down there who wants to feel 50 again. It's cool though, I'm not offended. This particular car market (911) is so annoying because it's all over the plac.
Not trying to offend or step on your feet, but no matter how much you think your car is worth, the market has the last word. See the attached image of recently sold 996 C4S cars. This is what you're up against and most of these cars had well under 100K miles. And, this is the eBay market, the dealer market is another beast to overcome when it comes to getting top dollar for you car.
I used to hate to hear the old expression, "It's not what you put in it, but what you can get out of it". But unfortunately, when it comes to car sales, it's very true. For example, I purchased an classic ol' GMC truck for $1500 and put $5000 in fixing' it up (i.e. replaced fender, restored interior, engine tuneup, and repaint). It sold for $7,000. I thought it could be worth more like $10K to $12K on the national market, but people wanted Chevy more than GMC apparently even though they were basically the same thing.

A lesson learned.
no no no not offended at all. The mileage I know kills me. Just the price we pay for having the bastard 911. I still love mine. I was just gauging information about it.

That black one sold on October 10 for $24,900.
Then, one quite similar to it sold on October 10 for $25,000.
