This is actually a really good idea, and the car could stay within the family.

The guys are right. It's not the price. Get the car to really shine and take AMAZING pictures (DJlomas style). Tell the story, sell the sizzle not the steak. These cars are all about fun. Make it fun. What do you love about this car. Share your maintenance history only when they ask. Post this new package with pictures on every cheap or free website. Craigslist, Cars.com, Recycler.com etc. Local newspaper on Sat. if reasonable.

The calendar is against you right now and most Porsche roadster buyers have gone into hibernation for the winter. Be patient and a buyer will come. If you cannot wait you can always trade it or wholesale it to Carmax. Good luck.

Thanks for all the great responses, guys! I should have asked this question in July when I posted it originally.. I just waxed it last weekend, so it's super shiny, I'll try to get out to do some "glamor" shots this weekend while the trees are still nice.

Nick - Thanks for doing all the checking around, I do feel better knowing that I'm asking a fair price.. I don't want anyone to get ripped off, but I also don't want to under-value my box...

I have the car listed on cars.com, craisglist here and a few surrounding cities within a couple hours drive, obviously here and renntechs' classifieds. I had it on ebay twice, but it never got past $9,300..
