Good luck to you. Please keep us posted as to how much you sell it for... I'd like to know the resale private party value.BTW - unless it's a turbo 911, I don't really think you can say "trading up"

I'm getting a GT3, so for performance its a subtstantial upgrade, the GT3 matches teh TT on the Nurburgring, probably a bit slower on the street but still 0-60 4.3 and top end of 190. Convenience and comfort is obvioulsy a downgrade but not really my priority.

Going from the C55 to a 911 c2 - not an upgrade. But, that's just my opinion... obviously opinions are like buttcracks, everyones got one! Good luck to you in selling your car.
