Here in the rural mid-west just about every family I know is hunkered-down. I had a vet buddy come by last month and offer to clean out my garage/shop just to salvage what he could. One of my neighbors is sweating his job and the other lost his and is trying to scrape up his monthly tuition payments. I went out shopping this weekend. After watching TV, I thought there might be crowds but no waiting (Sears/Lowes/Panera/B&N). If I were to sell one of my p-cars I think I would have to almost give it away. Its just where we are right now.

I thought about that. But I've been checking there and there aren't any n/a's going above $3k.

I would buff the paint but its so bad it can't be restored. It really needs to be properly sanded and repainted to look good again.

Be patient, worst time to sell as many think about the garage space it'll be taking up being stored for winter.

They are ROH with Porsche center caps. They are an Australian company. The PO had put them on there, I never had original wheels for it.

In general, I think 944s are a tough sell. if you're a 944 guy (like we all are) you know how expensive the parts are and how much effort can be spent maintaining it.

To the rest of the world it looks like an *expensive* nearly-30 year old car. And a car that everyone-and-their-brother has a horror story about.

There is just such a small market for a nice honest 944.

Hold it until spring.
It will sell better when people start thinking about getting out on the roads(or the Mayan's are correct and the world will end before then). Either way, you win.












The Mayan comment was a joke. What can they know, they're dead.

Not sure saying "selling because I don't have time to fix it anymore" is a positive selling point. You have certainly put a lot of time and money into the car. The market is speaking to you.. keeep it... Or ebay it.
