Maytag's Modified '03 S for Sale

[maytag]

All:
With the racetracks being closed, I find I'm anxious to move-on to another platform. This happens for me, as I enjoy the modifying as much as the driving. maybe more sometimes.
I know that I will never sell the car for what I've got into it. Not a chance.
I ALSO know that I could part it out for MUCH more than I can sell the car for. But if I can avoid doing so, I'd like to. So I'd like to see if there's any interest among the community to buy me out for a fraction of the parts resale value. I'd be very happy to let the whole thing go, rather than spend 3 months parting, shipping, fighting for payment, etc etc.

I've made a quick spreadsheet with the highpoints of what's included if someone made an offer (of course the whole car goes). I tallied what I know I can get for the parts on the list below (not what I HOPE I can get for them) and I'm really close to $20k. I'd accept a dramatically lower number than that. I'm realistic, and I don't want to spend the time to part it. frankly, if someone wanted to make some money, you could buy it all and part it yourself.


Is there any interest amongst anyone here?

Your car, with all its extras, would really be a leg up for somone wanting newly to get into a 986, particularly if they had aspirations for a dual-use car.
But I am very sad to see this post. I have enjoyed your comments and participation on this forum, and particularly your level headed emotionally mature insight revealed in some of the more charged discussions.
Do you not have some compulsion to "finish" your car before moving on to a different platform? Or did you reach the plateau you were aiming for?
Anyway BOL.

Dude!

You do have another 986... yes?

You're not going to be leaving us, are you?

I'd prefer to wait and see if there's a buyer for the whole package.

Honestly, for $15k -ish, this package is a hell of a bargain for somebody.

Woody, Frodo, FrozenLinkage, Starter; thanks guys. I appreciate the sentiment. I may not disappear entirely. There are some things afoot. hehe

Yeah, Man. Be sure to stick around for S&G.

And... be certain to reveal the new forum upon which you'll be a member...

[maytag]

Bump.

It's gotta go.... or in June I'll be forced to choose which car to take to the track: the Porsche or the Ferrari.

Hehe

Drooling over this parts list. If only i wasn't selling as well

[jsceash]

Sorry to see you selling this. I wish you were closer. $15k is a great price, but there is no way I could get all those extras to PA in the car. Where in Utah, near any airports?

[Stiggy]

I'm brand-new here, but I'd like to hear and see more about the car. Would you consider selling it without all of the extra parts? Oh, and why do you have to be way over there in Utah?
Utah is beautiful, breathtaking really. But I can't think of a cheap way to transport all of that down to the deep South.

Run Maytag's handle... you'll see what a screamer he's got.

Transport? Why... you'd drive it home, and worry free.

@ Stiggy:
I flew out and bought TIMCO's 550 SE just over 2 yr ago in SLC. Delayed departure for 1 day due to snow, so entertained ourselves skiing at Alta. Then drove it back to AL via the southern route with my 11yo daughter as copilot in a really great father-daughter trip. It was a good experience, and would have been so even if I had been alone, but having her there made it a lifetime memory.
My first 986s was bought in Philly and driven back to AL.
These are pretty good cars on the road. I wouldn't hesitate to do it again if the inspection was good. Ship by greyhound whatever won't fit. BOL

Sorry guys, I should check in more often.
Stiggy, what can I tell ya?
I'd consider selling without all the extra parts, if that's of interest to ya.
I might even split the cost of shipping or something. I bought it from PA, and the bill to get it here was about $800.

Oh, and yes: I'm 10 minutes from the salt lake international Airport. Plan things right, we could probably arrange for you to take it for a spin around the racetrack; I'm less than 30 minutes from Utah motorsports campus. (Formerly Miller)
