Default Thinking about selling my 997.2 Turbo S

Hi All,

I have had a lot of fun with my car. Its truly an amazing work of art and machinery. In sport mode, it just sings and knows when to shift and where. There are few cars out there as capable!

Unfortunately, my plans have changed. I am getting married next month and we want to buy a home. I wish I could swing the down payment with the car, but its too far to reach.

The car is black on black and everything is perfect with the exception of some very small rock chips on bumper/hood. Ceramic coated and only 16K miles.

Do you guys have any thoughts on the value/price?

Thanks!!

Not trying to be snarky with this comment -- considering you just bought it a few months ago, maybe just list it at the same price that you bought it for?

I just sold 2 identical twins to this car, one Black with 19k miles and one GT Silver with 12k miles. The black one took longer to sell as many people were reticent about the maintenance of keeping a black car looking good and the fact that its a fairly common color. The GT silver car sold in 24 hours. Mid $90's on Black car and just over $100k on the silver one.

We just had a pseudo-auction here in the 997TT forum, and it did not go well for the OP... My advice is if you are interested in selling your car, don't play this game of 'maybe it's for sale, send me offers' - just state an asking price and get on with it.

Nice car, I am sure it will sell quick if you actually list it for sale.

I think it looks awesome. Good luck. I have same car with CPO and can't get a nibble. Maybe BaT next step.

MSRP was $170,000. Car is perfect and the only thing it needs is a new owner. Check out the classified ads section for more details.

I like the Porsche tractor! Very nice car, bet you sell it by end of this weekend at that price. Good luck
