they usually run $3K-$5k more than similar optioned C4.

The seller contacted me back as she had a ppi done herself (less the compression/leakdown test) and the car checks out well.
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.

Ok, I just about bought a 964 today and lets just say it didn't do so well on the ppi. Now that is behind me an I'm on the look again. My next p-car will either be a 964 or a 996. Now, I like millennium's so lets not bash them here. This car popped up on Pelican over the weekend and I like it and most of the mods done to it.
So, what is it worth. NADA doesn't price millenniums and KBB is all over the place with 996's. Autotrader has ME's listed from the high 20's to the high 30's. I've never seen one fetch over 30K on ebay (auction always ends and the car never sells). I know what I think it is worth. I know what the owner is asking for it. I don't want to over pay, nor do I want to insult the owner.
So here is the car:

Let's hear it. Remember, please don't bash the car. Just thoughts on value keeping in mind it's a limited production car, has low miles and has some decent modifications. The current owner is owner #3 and has all records and knows the prior owners. I ran the car fax and it is clean. No warranty, no rms issues to date and still has orig. engine.
To be honest I don't think the Millennium buys much in value, thats a nice car, Aerokit looks great.
I would use comparably optioned cars from that year for pricing. Mid 20's?
Love that interior.
I have the same car with similar mods..... they usually run $3K-$5k more than similar optioned C4. With the mods, c4 chassis and mileage, and badge $28k-$30k is a steal. Its twin....
They are the same wheels except the one for sale was painted. You are in C4S price range now.
Ferd - you gotta drive more now with that market price....
WOW, a four way split. Wasn't expecting this.
BTW, I didn't think anyone but redridge had done this to a millennium.
All it needs are the GT3 seats to be a twin.
I voted 28-30, although I think anything above 28 and they're gonna be sitting on it for awhile waiting for the right buyer. The mileage and percieved condition are quite nice.
I thought they were all factory aero cars though...guess I must have missed a detail there.
My vote's for $25k-27k. I think that any 3.4 996 should go for low 20's, but the mileage, extra wheels/parts and overall condition warrant a few grand extra. I could take or leave the AWD. The special edition is pretty much a trim package so I don't think it adds to the value, but the unique color is worth a bump.
Provided the PPI checks out it's a beautiful car. I'd leave on the mk1 aerokit bumper (love it!) and maybe lose the taco, although it balances nicely on this car.
What's all this about the chromium vapor process for the wheels? I don't think there's anything particularly special in that (i.e., I'm sure a similar finish can be achieved by a good wheel shop), but someone please chime in and educate me.

Redridge, if ok, can you ping me a link to where you keep any nice pics? I LOVE the color. My favorite car color was my previous E36M3 which was "Techno Violet". Your car's interior is gorgeous also. In fact, I tried to order my M3 with "Modena Natur" which was similar, but they discontinued it in 1999 when I ordered my car.
When I was shopping for a new 996 I saw a non aero millennium edition and it just didn't strike me as this one does. Nice car. I was going back and forth on 25-27k or 28-30k. It really depends. Given that it's not a Aero on the build sheet may or may not effect value depending on who you are. The mods are nice but again, depending on who you are, may or may not effect the value of the car in a positive way.
I'd say if you can get it for 27k it would be a great deal. Get a PPI and go from there.
Good luck,
Its essentially a highly optioned c4 with leather interior.... they have a sticker price of $98K+.... depending if it is a tiptronic and an optional phone. IMHO, the best thing about the car is the unique paint and interior color scheme.... it does draw some attraction at meets.... cause very few really has heard of it, thats about it.....
Well I waited to vote.
When I posted the pole I figured the car was worth 27K. I used Audion19's that recently sold as my guide.
The seller is asking $34,900. I figure we're to far apart so the hunt continues.
If you haven't found one by spring, check back with the seller. There is no way he's going to sell it for that. If I were you, I'd give him your offer and be very polite about it. Tell him you know he's not going to take it but tell him it's a standing offer if he changes his mine. (and you haven't bought another car!) I bought a 911 that way and got a very nice deal on a perfect condition, low mileage car. Good luck!
How come you guys assume these cars are being sold by men ?
This car is being sold by a woman who is a Porsche enthusiast and knows what she has to sell, talked to her this weekend at the PCA Orange Coast region breakfast meeting.
Well I offered the seller $27K and took the advice of red911c2 and made my offer a standing offer about a week ago. $27K seems to be the average of the poll here too.
The seller contacted me back as she had a ppi done herself (less the compression/leakdown test) and the car checks out well. Thanks for the details Laura! The only issues for me are that the tires are 5 years old going on 6. The oil hasn't been changed in two years. No record of brake, trans., diff, or coolant flushes or belt changes.
So the car checks out. However, low milage, garage queen costs are not being kept up with. I was going to go look at the car in person tomorrow, but the seller is very firm on the price of $30K and I know I'm not willing to pay that premium. I think she has a buyer from somewhere else too.
Oh well, back to looking:
