This looks like a very nice car that many of us would be proud to own. (myself included)

You have a few avenues, but first you need to determine how much you want, how much you need and the level of effort you're willing to put forth.

1) Sell to an enthusiast here on Pelican, PCA or the other Porsche sites. I would avoid CL and FB. It won't be top dollar, but should be pretty painless and will hopefully go to someone who will appreciate the hobby and cherish the car. (or a flipper which would suck)

2) Use your network. Are you in PCA or any other car clubs? Do you know any other car guys? Friendly with your mechanic? Many, many cars are sold via word of mouth. I am constantly being asked if I want to buy/sell or if I know anyone who is.

3) BAT. World wide audience. Preparation is key to getting top dollar. Fix all the little details like the steering wheel, etc. Get a PPI to record the condition of the car. (paint readings, compression/leak down/head studs) A full professional detail and have it professionally photographed. Be prepared to deal with and engage lots of questions from people who may or may not be a buyer.

3a) As an enthusiast, I'm not a big fan this, but reach out to AVG (911r) who is local to you and see what their consignment fee is. They may take care of all the work in option 3, make their money and net you a number you are comfortable with.
