KENT: I sense a bit of disappointment in the responses you've received from the feedback. I can understand your sense of disappointment and that you have put a lot of your hard earned money and time into making this car a personalized statement of what you feel a Porsche should be. But the fact remains that regardless of how much time, effort, or money you put into it....it will only bring back what the market dictates.....and right now, the market is not kind to us Porsche folks....unless you're buying.

I wish you all the luck in the world and sincerely hope you get your price....but again, regardless of the new engine....the mileage and tip are going to be your biggest speed bumps. The big plus is the new engine with an existing warranty. This forum admittedly has a tendency to undervalue cars....but if you look (and Im sure you have) at the 99 996 market, there are just a whole lot of them out there looking for new homes that have been sitting around for a long time....with "price reduced" bumps to the threads. That's the stark reality of the current situation.
