What you need to sell your Porsche: the checklist

Selling goes faster, and usually for more, when everything is ready before you ask for an offer. Here is the checklist we give sellers.

The checklist

• The title

  In your name. If there is a loan, the lender holds it; you need a payoff letter instead (below).

• Payoff letter or lease details

  The exact payoff amount, good-through date and the lender's wire instructions. We pay the lender directly when we buy.

• Registration and photo ID

  Current registration, and a valid driver's license for every person on the title.

• Every key and remote

  Missing keys cost the next owner money, so they cost you money too.

• Service records

  Every invoice you have, in date order. Records are one of the biggest things buyers pay for on a Porsche.

• Window sticker or build record

  Proves the options. If you do not have it, decode the VIN with our VIN decoder.

• Original parts

  Factory wheels, exhaust, seats or anything you replaced. Original parts help value on GT cars.

• Disclosures

  Accidents, paint, modifications, warning lights, track use. Telling a buyer up front costs less than a surprise at inspection.

Photos that help

All four sides, the interior, the odometer with the car running (no warning lights), each wheel, the window sticker and any damage. Clear daylight photos get you a faster, firmer number.
