NADA or KBB?

Hey Guys,
When trying to find the true value of a 996, which would be more accurate for the value. It seems Nada deosnt really take into account the Porsche options, where KBB you can enter some options. But there was around a 4000 difference between nada and kbb.

I was looking for the value of a 2002 Porsche 996 6spd 60k miles with factory aerokit, but no much more on options. Exterior/Interior in excellent condition.
What would be a reasonable offer i can give?

Kelley Blue Book is a consumer guide
NADA is an auto industry guide

Basically Blue Book isn't really an accurate guide, but a lot of people use it and it's better known than NADA through some clever marketing. So depending on what side of a transaction you're on, use the guide with the higher or lower price. Anybody that really knows buying/selling cars will know that NADA is the industry guide. It doesn't show options because those are a huge variable and are really worth whatever a person is willing to pay for them. There's no fixed value.

I use Ebay to place the value of most things, price guides are what they are, guides.

eBay for sure, track similar cars with similar mileage, watch them and take an average. I sold my S4 this way, got close to $4K more than the dealer would give me. Worth the hassle IMO
