Ok guys, she's gotta go. It took me a while to get to this point, but the fact is I just don't drive her anymore.



Folks in the Bay Area - I'm doing an in-person auction THIS WEEKEND Saturday May 17th at the weekly Santana Row car meet to ensure a quick sale.

Starting price is $18,527 and it will be sold to the highest reasonable offer.

All details and info are here. You can also PM me with any questions.

FYI: careful with your wording... You make it sound like you will take 18,527 or highest reasonable offer (which would infer less)

I'll send you the 18.5K today lol

Car looks great !

Chads996

Your starting price is WAY TOO LOW. Thanks for lowering the values of our cars. WTF?!

Your car is worth $28-32K based on condition, options, etc.

If you are going to list a car, you might want to add some important info like...overall condition, mileage, maintenance history, etc.

Interesting. I'll come by SR Saturday AM. (No intention to buy, just curious ) I'll also spread the word among my friends... Good Luck

I have seen this car in person...very nice looking setup. Good luck with your auction on Sat, if I was more local I would stop by.

What's up bk12! I couldn't remember your alias after we met up. Thanks for the plug. I'm sure everyone that comes on Saturday will agree she's a sweet ride.

911fiend

Thanks! Look forward to meeting you (and your friends)

Hi Chad, this is just the starting price for the bidding. I'll certainly post the final price once the bidding is completed and the sale is closed to maintain the market status quo.

OT but not really: when I settled with my insurance company after the total loss of my '99 C2 SY w/Aero and O.Z. wheels and x74 suspension, I got $47K

So really think about the selling price and don't be swayed by the current market and 'depression' we are in

very interesting way to sell a car! Please keep us posted with the results.

Inquiring minds want to know.

Nice car but there is one thing that scares me.

From your ad.


For your protection: The bids are not legally binding contracts and can be withdrawn at any time.

For the seller's protection: The seller reserves the right to reject any and/or all bids without explanation with exception to an accepted and executed sales contract being processed.

This is a sale with a minimum undisclosed reserve.

I'll be interested in the final result.

If you don't drive that gorgeous P-car, what exactly do you drive?

Asking me? I'm in the market for a 996/997 myself.

Anyone up for being my annoying Barret Jackson clown in the Ferrari shirt and hat and take my phone bid for the car?

Are you also up for taking offers on her now?
