After much reflection, with a new toy on the way, its time to sell. I'm posting here for a while before anywhere else because I think the members here will appreciate what this car represents, the work done, and the state of its condition more than the GenPop on other boards.

1994 968 Cabriolet. Iris Blue Mettalic, Classic Grey (1 of 3). 105.6K miles.
VIN: WP0CA2963RS840496
I’ve had this car for 3 years, with the intention of fully restoring. Most of the mechanical/maintenance issues that needed attention are complete, as well as performance upgrades; listed below. I drive it a couple times a week, yet there is still work to do…the majority of it cosmetic/interior. Interior is in decent shape, just worn.
Great driving, RARE color combo, mechanically sound, looking for somebody to take it the rest of the way. $14,000. Will consider all realistic offers, but this price is well valued via Hagerty considering the completed work, parts used and parts included in the sale
