Ugh, that really sucks dude. I think everyone is avoiding giving you a number because they don't want to be responsible for you throwing up on your keyboard.

Unfortunately there's not a ton of value in a non-S 997.1 roller....I'd bet a dismantler would give you $8k, with retail value probably around $17K depending on options (but it will take a long time to sell off).

The $11k 3.6 m96 motors are ebay specials and probably have 100k miles on them. They are realistically $14k motors (for decent ones) plus install. Once a shop finds out your core is IMS related they won't offer you dick for it.

Do you race? Best, and most non-nauseating path for you would be use it as a base for that race car you've always wanted
