Sorry no trades. The problem is that I've got too many cars.

Thanks for the offer though.

You need to list it here or on rennlist.net

The lowballers on TR ain't gonna cough up the premium that a low-mileage Porsche can command from the right audience. Another good shot would be Panorama (the Porsche Club of America magazine), but you need to be a club member to advertise ($42/yr).

Make me an offer.

Bump.
Call Rick's European and ask for Jim, Tell him Damien sent you, (the kid with the 944). Tell him it's not a wreck and then explain what you have, He will then point you in the right direction.

Also you may want to talk to Frank Eibell at Eibell Performance.

I've decided to relist this car. I just don't have room for it. Get this out of my garage and my wife off of my back!

$5,000 OBO!

your previous guess on ac repair was less than $200, while mine was up to $2,000. so how much was it?

I've found that it is between $150 to $200 to convert the AC over to the new freon. That is all that I think needs to be done to get the AC working.

Like I said before, you could add AC to a non AC equiped car for $2,000. My wife had an '88 mustang LX convertable that came standard without AC and we had the whole system installed for $1,200. I'm sure that a Porsche would cost more but this car already has AC. All of the parts are there. The car has 25,000 original miles but let's say that there is a problem with a part in the AC system. What are the odds that there would be a problem that would require replacing every single part in the system?

Are you even interested in buying the car?

I just called Dave White Racing (Porsche Race Shop) and they will do the conversion for $250 (parts and labor.)

I then called Ice Cold Autoair and they will do the conversion for $138 (parts and labor.)

Do you know the specs of the engine by chance?
