Hi Ed

Hi Ed,

Welcome from another fellow 550 Anniversary owner! If you would like, be sure give us some info and a pic or two in our 550 Anniversary thread:

Looking forward to hearing more from you in the forums. Enjoy your new ride

By how much it increases the value I'm not sure, but considering that these '04 BSSE's are rare and any limited edition Porsche model should in theory be collectible and sought after, I would have to think your estimate is probably accurate. Maybe even conservative, since there's probably a good deal fewer of these remaining that are still in good condition and have intact original engines than there were ten years ago.
