Had my '99 listed since summer. Have only driven it 14000 m in the past 7 years after moving to a snow belt. Initially was gonna go C4S as my only car, but continued shopping for a more practical but fun alternative and am ecstatic with my VW R32. Plan: Wait for the 998 while I live with the DSG to make an informed decision regarding transmission and play around with mods on the VW (it is a really impressive car, BTW)..... Back on topic, the 996 is "worth" $27500 using Edmunds private party value, and I have Kinesis wheels and ROW M030 springs that I couldn't load into their calculation. I figger $29500 is reasonable but I have an oil leak (undiagnosed, I'm figuring RMS) and an ignition switch that needs replacing. Offer is $27500. Not just the money, of course. Nice to have a 911 waiting for spring. But hell, i'll save $1000/year just on insurance/reg aside from the further depreciation.....

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.

Hit the bid.
Info on the car? I would say your oil has to do with driving it 2000 miles a year only, everything is probably dried out. Porsche is just like every other car, mods DECREASE the value to most buyers. Only select mods are really marketable to select buyers as something that adds value.
I wouldn't sell just keep it and use it ....you lose so much money it isn't worth it.....hope I don't have to eat my words...and have to put my P on sale soon...depression and all and I made my wife buy me a house ( yes she made me!)

I agree. Owners who are proud of what they've done in "improving" the car via modifications will often find unenthusiastic buyers who don't place the same value on those modifications. And, if fact, they're often perceived as negatives. This isn't a value judgment on whether the car should be modded in the first place, only an observation that their impact on the selling price should be considered not necessarily as "add ons" to the price but perhaps a reduction to the price. In any event, good luck in selling your car!
SOB that is a steal in my eyes.....
