Actually, I reduced the price down to $95k on the PCA website...in all fairness I should 've done it here too. Sorry about that. Let me know. I'm in no rush.

BobbyC,
When I sold my Carrera S I listed it on the PCA website, Panorama, the local PCA region publication, and Autotrader. For what it's worth I had the most calls from the Autotrader ad. However, most of the Autotrader callers were first time Porsche buyers and had a lot of questions to deal with. After all that I ended up selling it to a Porsche technician from the local dealer.

I hear you. But I'm hoping that a Porsche enthusiast will recognize the inherent value of the car...immaculate condition/performance, options, and most importantly the reasonable and fair $$$ value vs mileage argument. If not, then I'll probably keep it and make it my DD. Thanks for sharing the invaluable advice. Cheers!

Guys, the car is no longer for sale!

Took it out for a drive tonite and realized why I love this car so much. I'm gonna keep it.

Apologize for the "bought a new car, put the old one up for sale" impulse.

Cheers!

Understandable. I've got some designs on a car out of NM. Hopefully all will work out for me.

Bobby, I just bought an 03 turbo which sits way up in the air like a beached whale. How did the x73 suspension work out for you . Could you send me a pic.
