Mike, what's the new plan?

Not too many factory aero cars showing up lately. With full leather and sport chrono, I'd say $42k, but because its a Tip, a bit lower, maybe $38k-$40k.

Thanks for taking the time to respond Pete.

I have vehicular ADHD and literally cant seem to keep a car for more than a year so this time I think I may swap the 911 for an S5. I have had a low 11 second S5 before and a guy is considering developing an even higher hp power adder that could turn it into a 10 second car easily and its just a car I feel much more comfortable wrenching on and breaking if it happens. Id rather pop a mass production engine in an S5 that I can find used for 3 grand. I like the 911 alot but its not a car I want to do any "modding" too. I like its factory appearance.

Do you think the bumper to bumper warranty adds much value? I'm considering just cashing in the warranty. I believe I can still get $3500 back out of it.


Thanks,
mike

S5 is probably my favorite regular Audi (R8 being a non-regular one)

On the warranty, I think it's really going to depend on the buyer. A buyer with enough knowledge to be dangerous but not well informed will worry about the IMS since it's a .1 car so to him yes, it probably adds value. Will someone buy it for $3,500 more with the warranty - I doubt it, and would cash it out or offer it at one price with the warranty and a $3,500 lower price without. Any price delta less than $3,500 and you're better off cashing it in.

BringaTrailer.com is a good place to sell

I think you cast a wider net with the warranty. I'd keep it because with bore scoring, d-chunk and IMS a warranty is almost essential. New buyer will want one and at 72,000 miles they really start to get expensive. AFAIK Fidelity factors miles when pricing warranties.
