But this one guy sent me an email asking the price. Hadn't seen the car yet. Just wanted my "lowest price". Being a cheerful sort of fellow I told him what I wanted. He said "$12K for something with 350,000 km?". My answer was simple - you bet. He didn't call again. Don't mind someone saying no - but look at the car first. The repairs to the engine alone that I did in Oct/Nov 2010 cost more than I am asking.
Another guy advised me that he had 3 924 engines available. I said OK. Maybe you can install 2 at once to have similar power. One in the front and a second one in the back. The third can be used for spare parts. 911s have a rear engine so I am sure it can be done. He was offended.
Another guy said it was between a 1990 or 1991 944 S2 cab and my 968 cab. He asked what the difference was. Told him from the inside not much that would be obvious other than the view from the seat looking out. When I mentioned the variocam and the lights he cut me off saying that he knew all that. I asked him why he had asked me. Note added later - perhaps unbelievably, of the 4 people who have asked about my cab, 3 of them currently own 944 S2 cabs! This seems almost like a statistical error. Two have been from the eastern US, and both seemed to be knowledgeable about 944s vs 968s, but the guy from up my way was the real gem.
Another guy needed the lowest price "right now" as he was going to buy a car "today". Mine is still for sale.
I hate selling cars. But I am still trying.
