Wanted 997 C4S pricing

[Ken White]

Looking for some ideas on pricing my car as maybe selling due to not using it much.

997.1 C4S 2008 manual 18.5k miles one owner from new. Has lots of extras ordered at the time, Aero Kit, sports exhaust, sports seats etc.I have also swapped out the suspension to a fully adjustable TechArt system with hydraulic nose lift. There was no option of a nose lift when ordering at that time, so decided to change it out once the warranty was up.

Any help on pricing would be appreciated.

Yours is a very difficult car to judge.

Manual C4S cars are quite rare, the aerokit is also unusual and the mileage is incredibly low.

All I can say is that it should be one of the most expensive Gen1 cars on the market and that the combination of low mileage and spec should make it very desirable.

As to an asking price .................. So much depends on how motivated you are to sell. IMO £39,995 would generate interest but it's probably worth more. It's not a good market at the moment .I'd wait until 2025 if I were you.

Good luck

Thank you for your input. Lots of valid points you have made.

Once my extension (final one on this house, thank the lord) is done - I’d be very keen on this. If you wait for next year to put it up for sale, please let me know. Lovely car!

Will keep you in the loop if i decide to sell. Thanks.

If you put that up for sale right now then it's probably the best of it's kind on the market.
If it were mine I'd put it up on the forums at £45k and see what happens.

You're going to get lowballed, but you might get someone serious who really wants one.

I'm out of the UK for a few months but if I wasn't and saw that up at £40k I'd be really tempted, stuff like that doesn't come around often these days.

Yes i think you are correct at maybe put up at 45k asking in the spring and see what offers come in. It is a fairly niche car but i am sure someone out there will want it.

Thanks for the link. I guess that is pretty much the same as mine. So guess that should be where i pitch it at with mine been one owner and also the Techart suspension lift.
