OK, I'm looking at another car to buy. I have way too many already, so I might sell one.
Question to you guys: which would you sell, and which would you keep: Car 1) 1974 1.8. FI. The car is EXTREMELY clean. It retains it's original silver color. It was a one-owner car before I bought it. I have all paperwork, including sales slip, from the day it was new. Here's the problem: In 1998 it was in a front-end accident. These cars were worth nothing then. It was fixed at a very high end shop. I have all of the receipts for the work that was done. But, the car has salvage title. Car 2) 1973 1.7 FI. The car is very clean, but not quite as much as Car 1. It was originally Alaska Blue but was painted in 1986 to turquoise (not a Porsche color). The paint is in very good condition, but by no means was it done by a high-end place. I'm guessing Earl Scheib or similar. Clear title. Many of you have seen both of the cars. Which to sell and which to keep, and why? Attached thumbnail(s) Attached image(s) |

I'll take the silver one! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) A lot of great replies and I'm sure you've had plenty of PMs from people wanting to buy one or the other. As for value, I'm guessing you already have an idea of what you want for them. If you're not sure what to list the one you decide to sell at and you want to maximize your potential return, an auction is your answer. BaT auctions seem to do well... Personally I think it would mean more to offer at a "fair" price to a member that will care for the car as well as you have over the years, but that's just me. |
