These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

47 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

  • Rennlist: 1 discussions

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

The car has been a DD for both owners and has never had any major mechanical issues. RMS was replaced at 40k miles. The underside is currently dry as a bone. I have 25k miles on the tires and there are no signs of uneven wear or misalignment. Asking $36,500.00 (1/11/10) Aaron

POST 3Original post

WOW - GLWTS I am sad to see this happen to you, I wish you all the best my friend!!!! What a beautiful car, one of you "lurkers" needs to be quick and buy this one!!

POST 4Original post

Damn! A divorce and then sell the p-car? Sorry to hear my friend. Cue Tim in 3.....2...... to post some crazy pic involving a divorce, a porsche, and God knows what to shed some humor on this for us

POST 8 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks guys. I'm keeping the cayenne to haul the dogs and work on the house, but it aint a 911. This car is so well optioned, and I was JUST getting it the way I like it. BTW: I can't figure out how to post in the classifieds...anyone know how? Also I'm thinking about using the VIP package on autotrader.com. What do you guys think about that site? Waste of time?

POST 9Original post

Hope all goes well for you...one step at a time. GL selling.

POST 10Original post

Noooooo, say it isnt so..... she's a beauty. GLWTS, may you find another speedy 911 ownership.

POST 11Original post

Damn Aaron, I am sorry to hear that the car is going away and about the divorce. I am sure you will miss her a lot. You may even miss your wife a little too! I still miss my Porsche and it has been gone for 18 months, 2 weeks and 1 day, but who's counting? Remember, you can always get another one.... no, not a wife...... I meant a Porsche!. This will give you the opportunity to get one with a 6-speed manual transmission. Seriously, I am not making light of your marital situation.... just trying to make you smile for a few seconds. I truly hope things work out for the best for you.

POST 12Original post

Damn, sorry to hear. Autotrader might get you good leads, more so than forums. Are you considering parting out some parts? (Intake, specifically)

POST 13Original post

Hey Aaron, sorry to hear on both fronts. Definitely a gorgeous C4S, like those sports seats too. Good luck with everything, hang in there....

POST 14Original post

GLWTS and even better luck w/ your divorce. P-car looks fabulous and should sell - especially at that price range.

Tim, Thanks, man. Laughter is something I appreciate very much these days, and I know you understand my pain of watching this car drive away. Yes, maybe there will be a 996 Turbo w/ stick in my distant future. Arnee, You have a one track mind. But actually I did think of you. And if I swap the OE airbox back in, you are first in line for the EVOMS.

Aaron, Sorry to here you have to sell and divorce. I would say Autotrader and Cars.com would be your best bet. I've sold all my cars through Autotrader. Just get the package that gets 9 photos. It's national coverage plus a couple hits from Nigeria.... And Arnee, I thought you were going back to stock?

POST 18 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I hear the Nigerians are willing to pay original MSRP for the car?!

Quotes source post: 7142388

I mostly get people looking to advertise my car from my AutoTrader ad. I also am using www.cars.com and have gotten nothing there. More interest from Rennlist and PCA members. Posting in Rennlist is fairly straightworward. Good luck!

POST 20Original post

Sad to hear this! I remembered how excited when you first got her. The car ..

POST 21 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Quotes source post: 7144618

Yes, she is sooo damn sexy, and drives like no other car around. For fun I go to CarMax and test drive cars. To this day I have found nothing that can even equal the feeling in a 911....

I forgot about the calls from other advertizers. That was a PITA!

POST 24Original post

Quotes source post: 7144892

why were they calling you?

POST 25Original post

Quotes source post: 7145026

They call you offering their services "guaranteeing" you'll sell the car within X days. And there were a ton of them calling. That happened with the last car about four months ago.

POST 31Original post

That's a great looking 4S and a fair price. GL with your sale. Suggest putting it on Autotrader and in Panorama. You'll get bites with that car.

POST 32Original post

Aaron , sorry about the circumstances man. The 05 C4S is a bit of a cult car around here, so I think you'll def. get your price esp. on RL (but don't forget 6speed and pano). GL w/ everything - Hans

POST 33Original post

At least if she is at Phil's, I know she'll have a good home.

I blew a rear tire last night, so now the car will have a brand new set of Sumitomo's as well.

POST 40Original post

Quotes source post: 7177023

Oh man! No one is going to want to buy a car that had a blown tire.... Diminished value, no sense in selling now, you're not going to get what it's worth....

POST 41Original post

Aaron, sorry to hear about the tire... that can be scary.... The Sumi's are pretty slick at first... watch out They do turn into pretty good tires (esp for thier price!)

POST 42Original post

Aaron if you have someone you know in the car business / a car broker ask them to run your car through the OVE Program through Manheim and Autotrader. These service is for dealer/brokers and usually results in quick sales. Expect higher than wholesale but just below retail

POST 43 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Just to sweeten the deal, the new owner will get, abolutely FREE....A one year membership to Rennlist AND a Rennlist window decal! Huh?

POST 45Original post

Damn sorry to hear man.. 37k $ is very cheap, in Sweden we have to pay 70k $ for a car like that. I would buy it, but the timing is bad right now and I guess shipping it from CA to Sweden aint done for 10 bucks.

POST 46 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Arnee, If you buy it, i'll even throw in an EVOMS CAI. No extra charge!

POST 47 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post
