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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Purchased new and in excellent condition. Barely used!! Local pick up in AZ Check it out on Ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/996-Hardtop-Lapi...QQcmdZViewItem Best offer over $200 takes it!!

POST 2Original post

That's a sweet deal for someone. GL with the sale.

POST 3Original post

Do yourself a favor and change your price. If the hardtop from my '95 Miata is worth $1k (and it is), a Lapis Blue 996 hardtop should be worth a touch more than $200.

POST 4Original post

I agree- cannot believe you're selling it for $200. $2,000 is more like it. Smoking deal for the right cab owner to convert P-car to a 4-season driver!

POST 5Original post

Supply and demand make the price. There are quite a few 996 hardtops out there on ebay below $500. I got mine for $600 >1 year ago on e-bay from a local guy (of course I had to get it painted). However, I think $200 in AZ (where you might not want a hardtop as much as if you are e.g. in Chicago) is a reasonable price.

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks for the advice guys. I payed $700 for it from the dealer about a year after leasing my car and basically never used it. Since my car is going back to them soon I figured I would try to recoupe something rather then just give it back to them. I guess I could hold onto it until it sells but to be honest with you I would rather have the space in my garage.

POST 8Original post

May I assume that it's too heavy for one person to lift/carry? Is a wheeled dolly necessary to move it around? Thanks.

POST 10Original post

I bought one over Christmas break in perfect condition for $199 off of ebay. Both the seller and I were shocked that that was all it went for. Regarding lifting it, it's not that heavy, just awkward to move.

POST 12Original post

POST 13Original post

Tim, Thanks for turning me on to this. Jason called me yesterday and we made a deal just trying to figure out the shipping details. He's a good guy easy to deal with and honest.
