Porsche Crest Opinons Or Thoughts On Selling, 911

I am wanting to get some feedback, opinions, or thoughts concerning the sale of the Porsche. I have a couple of scenarios of selling.
1. If you knew that you might not be able to drive your 911 again, would you go ahead and sell it?
2. If it was going to be left up to your estate to sell, if this is the case, would you leave it for your estate to sell?

Example #1. Being that you are the owner, mechanic, and you also know the car inside and out, every little noise, squeak and all of the rest of what makes the car, your car. Would you go ahead and sell it, because nobody else knows it, like you do?

Being you know all of this, you can provide whatever information a possible buyer might have, and you can get a realistic, fair price for the car. You can also "screen out" the tire kickers, and BS offers and unqualified buyers.

Example #2. If it was going to be left to your estate to have to deal with it and try to sell it, with no one that could really answer any questions, or basically does not really know anything about the car. Would you want your estate to possibly just give it away, or get involved in a BULL$HIT SCAM, or have a novice, that has hardly ever even seen a real Porsche, let alone drive one. Would they know not to let someone like that just take off in the car, that you had nursed back to health, always took care of it, and had it for 10-15yrs, and it was part of YOUR FAMILY!
The question here is, would you want to put your family through all of this, or would you go ahead and try to liquidate as much of what your estate would be? So they wouldn't just get severely screwed over on just about everything?

I would really like to get some serious opinions from the group, because I know that most of us, would not ever really want to sell. Some here know me and my car, and that I have not been able to really zoom off in it much lately. I had the speedometer/odometer rebuilt and calibrated in June 2003, and I have only been able to drive the car about 1800 miles since then.

I am posting this on the OFF-TOPIC FORUM, because it isn't really a technical issue. I would like to input on this. Thanks a lot, Tony.
