suspect asking price might be high but unicorns

more interested in the data point to help fill in the picture in this admittedly thin market. Good time to be putting a car like that on the market. Kind of a sellers market when it comes to these unicorns.

$90,000 ask for a 2007 C2S. X51. FGM/Terracotta. Öhlins. BBS LM.
If they get their ask then I need to seriously consider selling my 997.2. Similar mileage, similar suspension, similar wheels (stock rims also included.)
I love my car but if I could sell it for $90k I’d roll that money into a 991 GT3.

The green car is a stunner. It sits so nice and the wheels are fabulous. But it's still a big ask.

Goodluck Sechsgang. I owned this car for about 3 years. Did all the mods up til what you see now. I'm glad it's getting some attention now. No expense spared under my ownership. I'm sure you'll love it.

Full service including new plugs & updated coil-packs right before I sold it to the previous owner last year. Paint correction was done prior full PPF on entire car except the spoiler lip, which was brand new supplied with the car. Had a black one on there for driving purpose. I replaced the PCM unit because the old one had scratches on the face. Couldn't live with it. New AC buttons too. Replace the driver seat bolster with Porsche Terracotta leather & matching stitching. Bolster was beat when I got the car. There may be here & there I did but not worth mentioning.
I was offered to buy it back but once I let it go the mind is set. For those commented on the price, I agree it’s high but why not shoot the sky & see where it lands. For the right buyer this is worth what the individual is willing to pay. We shall see.

Gotta be honest. It's too painful to count the !!!!, especially in RED. A classier ad could help.

Arling, did you trade it and what did you get in its place?

Love to read the comments here or FB saying one would rather spend the money on a GT3 because it's GT3 money. That's a false statement because a similar mileage, condition, spec GT3 in any generation simply does not exist in this price range. Then you look around the 993, 964 even the 911 market, nothing you can touch in this price range for a similar mileage, condition, spec. They are not better car to own, not more fun to drive, Will still cost a fortune to own, just a total different 911 driving experience.

As to any buyer that's going to add another 911 to an existing 911 collection would see it completely different than who is only looking for only one 911 to own. Everyone wants good deal, but there's no deal on good 911, period.

Keyboard buyers, Doug.
Timing didn't lineup precisely but if had to be it then it was 996 GT3.
I've gone through a handful of GT3 & GT3RS from 996 to 991. Never felt comfortable with any 997 GT3 variants including RS4.0, Would have & should have kept that one though only for collecting purpose. The notchy shifting just killed it for me, for my street use.![Stick Out Tongue](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/smilies/tongue.gif)
If I were to pick 3 997s to keep, my choice would be 997.1 GT2, 997.2 GT3RS4.0, 997.2 Sport Classic. Wouldn't mind to have a GTS for daily... yeah that's greedy.
