Selling the 964 Turbo

This is a trip! I thought you had a photo of my car at my house. I have the same car and our homes look almost identical.
The time has come to sell my baby and I'm just putting it out here as a quick little feeler to the enthusiast. Most likely will put on Autotrader and then BaT. I am going to bring it in next week and have a quick mechanical rundown done on it: oil change, a/c recharge, inspection, etc. and then make moves to sell. Was a lot of fun and a wonderful car but after nearly 4 years and 1k miles it's time to go. Not sure what to ask either...52k miles, Slate Grey, custom Slate Grey interior (from the factory), sport seats, 1 owner (before me), no accidents. Really a beautiful car. Totally stock except exhaust and stereo head unit. Thinking asking $170k but very uncertain where the market is.

Funny some of these have broken into the $300k range lately. I just helped import a unique color 3.3T and I suspect the car is worth north of $300k to the right buyer.

the funny thing is that over here in germany the prices droped for the last two or three years. for top examples dealers ask high prices. examples with issues are way below 100 k if offered. so there is almost no middle range at the moment. think our prices will follow next year latest the other direction: up!

Your car should bring a good price.
I've been following a similar path with improvements but I've been at it for 16 years so my list is probably a little more extensive. I'm not sure how everything I've done to my car would fit into a BAT ad or if I wouldn't inadvertently leave something out.

It's less than what I wanted but I have too many cars and I am really trying to downsize. I can live with the price. Just unfortunate the stock market tanked big on my final auction day. Bad luck!

you were asking 170k in the first post above for 6 months? I have to imagine 4 weeks ago if someone sent you 165k it would have been gone?

That Car is remarkable underneath. I've been building 964's off an on since 1996. This year I just took the Classic grey interior out of my 1991 turbo for a restoration. Headliner dash etc. All grey. Your interior subtracts points. Black leather Lower dash and Center Console are more than likely original with it's black door caps, dash and headliner. I know you have grey carpet but I believe Classic grey interiors use grey headliners and dashes. Black above doesn't look correct. That's your huge hit. Interiors can run $20,000

From what I can tell, you could get just about any combination you wanted, if you were willing to pay for it.

Your car is a correct color option. Deviating carpet is a popular option Special wish department didn't design that mismatched black and grey interior. The car below is one I built 20 years ago. Same color combo as your car. See Porsche's chart from 1991. The black with the grey is a Black cloth top for Cabs. The light grey or Rasberry as GAHH calls it mated up to Majenta, Classic grey, Blue and Black. Never to the Light grey. Looks like there's a Carrera grey below. I could be wrong but it's very common to change interiors out back in the day.

Black/Cashmere is really stunning.
As my car was ordered with black, I kinda had to go back to that in my interior re-do. I would have preferred to do something like the cashmere/black combo but with a dark red or maroon for the deviated parts.
That's the problem with buying used after the fact: you buy on condition and you have to accept whatever the colors are within reason, unless a color is really revolting to you. For me, that color is Polar Silver. The first 965 I was offered was Polar Silver/Black and that was a hard pass for me.
