its almost certainly gonna have to be a 993 6 speed C2 now i've spent all week looking. its just grown on me. unfortunately it appears everyone is after the same car including all the dealers.
Great cars if you can find one. Good luck with the search. FYI the 5 speed is perfect for the 964...never once thought mine would benefit from having more gears.

You have just increased values by 2.5% with that statement!

starting to look around, but any specific forums or registers worth joining where cars come up for sale privately? or any well thought of dealers who specialise?

This one has had a lot done it seems yet under-priced in current climate?? (no affiliation etc)

Saw that the other day. Looks sweet but not manual unfortunately. Liked the black painted rims look on it

I said you shouldnt have said anything.

Quick, post that you have driven a 996 and they are much better and a potential investment!

For the mods/maintenance listed out, seems very under priced. Why is it not 35k. Bizarre.

This is my car for sale. I too think it's under valued but I needed a certain figure to get into an Aston Martin Vantage.

I was offered a low ball figure by a dealer for PX so wanted a bit more.

I've had a few enquires, most of them just time wasters with stupid questions (how much is insurance, what's the lowest price I'll take etc etc etc)

I'm thinking I'll just keep the car I do really like it. I know the tip gets a lot of criticism on here but for me it's 90% petfect.
Traffic around my area is terrible so it is a bliss. I do miss the manual change when I'm hooning around though.
I honestly think someone has missed a bargain with this car.

If it was manual I'd be coming to view. Good luck with the sale

What about this one .... ok its a Targa. which is no bad thing, and only 90K miles and an absolute bargain price if it checks out...... Euros to £ that's around 26K.
Don't write off the interior either. I believe that's 'Chestnut'. It grows on you, and its better in the flesh than in the photos.
