Whats it worth? Help

So this is what i have:
1985.5 944.
Kalahari with Brown
Mostly original the only thing after market are the 17" wheels, but i still have the phone dials in almost mind shape with new tires.
The car has a documented service history with <130,000
recent work is:
Timing belt, 2000 miles ago with belts checked today.
Brakes within the last 5000
Computers
Rear shocks (koni adjustable)

The interior is in amazing shape with only a couple dash cracks, seats are in excellent shape.
I am the second owner

the exterior has a couple smaller dents and scratches not anything bad the car looks pretty good all the way around but is not perfect i took pictures of the worst spot.. one of the front fog light lenses is cracked.

this car is in really good shape for what it is.. Runs like new everything works, except the ac.. (but thats the huge sun roof is for

thank you!

Looks to be in really nice shape.. but most will say it will "sell" in the $3500-5000 range. There are others that think no 944NA should be more than $5k.

Pros: looks in good shape. Some recent service work. Nice interior

Cons: its BROWN

Don't sell it based on what it may be worth. Sell it if you "dont want it" anymore.


Hows the clutch - original?

What works/doesn't work.. usually there are electical issues.. mirrors, windows, sunroof etc. Does it leak Powersteering fluid like most of them? AC blow cold? Hatch and hood shocks still holding up?

The car look in decent shape & you should get a fair price for it, since some major work has been done on it.Do you mind giving the location of the car.

I am at the same point with my baby. 1987 NA.



It pained me to see her sit in storage. I have put less than 1,500 miles on her over the last 4 years. I finally pulled her out last weekend and cleaned her up. I am going to start driving her and give my Mercedes SUV a "rest" for a while.

Did an oil change on it last night which ended up me ripping the intake off as one of the intake gaskets is leaking. I also have a new clutch master and slave that needs to go in probably next week.

Even though I have a metric boat load of $$ into the suspension, near flawless interior, and (after my few repairs) runs flawlessly, they just are not bringing much $$ on the open market. So, I am going to drive her again. Rock chips be damned!
