Why is it so difficukt?

I've been toying with selling. I'd start at 14,500 for my special edition but it has 130k.

If nobody is buying the price is too high or nobody wants it or some combo. There's just 2 avenues really.

No matter what you put into it it's a 2001 or whatever year Boxster. Nothing more.

I bought my Boxster this spring and shopped around quite a bit. Many of the cars I looked at are still for sale. I expect some went unsold and aren't listed. The ones that did sell were priced right. There are multiple reasons I didn't buy some cars ranging from no IMS bearing replaced (it doesn't need it ) , owner wouldn't negotiate on overpriced cars that needed work, no maintenance history, crappy ads, lack of response to ads, etc. One guy wanted $25k for his 2003 S with low km and no IMS replacement. He gave me a lot of attitude and wouldn't negotiate. I would have paid $22k. The last time I saw the ad it was down to $20k! They are a great car for the dollar but not dirt cheap to maintain especially if you take it to someone. I'm sure when the time comes I will have to give mine away. That won't be soon but I do have my eye on that RS60 on BAT

I'm in the position that I have a car that is nearly a track car which is still street-able. there is $15,000 in track upgrade that will not help the sale in any way, and putting it for sale for $10,000. for a 2003, non S, does even begin to represent the investment. The only thing that makes it a Non S at this point is a 5 speed transmission. On track it is as fast or faster than a Cayman 4S. and faster than stock to lightly modified 996 GT3's. Faster then most stock 997.1 GT3. I have hours of videos to that fact. Even this won't help
