FS: 04 40th Anniversary Car

I knew this day would come and that it would be a bitter/sweet moment for me but it's time to part with my baby. What I have is a nice street car that's a lot of fun as a daily driver and as a DE car. I'm now ready to get into racing and want to buy a dedicated track car (full roll cage, etc.). This car is too nice to weld and cut and it doesn't make sense for me to keep both cars so I need to find a new home for my baby.

The car has 38,xxx miles and a Porsche factory warranty that's valid until 50k miles or August '08. I had a brand new transmission and clutch installed a few months ago.

Should I.....
A) Return the car to stock and sell it with the OEM equipment?? If so, what's
a fair asking price???

If I return the car to stock, the car would be advertised as follows:
-40th anniversary pkg (X51, updated trim, polished 5 spoke wheels, etc. etc.)
-CD changer
-Heated leather seats
-Bose system
-Navigation
-Clear bra
-clear turn signals (should add about $3k to the asking price)

or

B) Sell the car as/is? If so, what's a fair asking price???
The as/is option would include:
-Euro GT3 seats
-Tequipment roll bar
-GT3 anti-sway bars
-GT3 front control arms
-GT3 brake ducts
- In car camera set-up
- 4 sets of wheels (polished '02 5 spoke for the streets, '02 5 spoke painted black for the track, solid turbo twist, BBS GT-RS)

my experience tells me that usually nobody will pay extra for mods. you will actually get more money parting it out and returning it to stock.

This is typically true with any car. So yeah, you'd be better off returning it to stock and parting it out.

Oh, and you'd also be better off listing this in the For Sale section
