Would adding PCM 2.0 add to the resale value of my 2004 996 C2?

[Jvc300]

I'm thinking about selling my 2004 seal grey 996 C2. It's immaculate with Tip, Xenon lights, PSM, Power seats, Bose , etc.... I can get a PCM very cheap and add original equip navigation to the car. Would it actually add value being orig equip navigation?

Thanks anyways, I checked on clearbook.com and it would increase the value by 600 bucks.

Short term - yes. Long term - no. My dad is a huge 914/914-6 owner/enthusiast, and any time I mention "it would be nice to add ___ to my car", he gets on my case and points out this story that the factory radio in the 914s was God-awful, but the 914s that pull big money are the ones that are well maintained and all original. So my advice would be if you plan on keeping the car, do not make any modifications that cannot be undone. For example, I installed the 997 shifter in my 996, which is 1,000x nicer - literally the difference between a sports car shifter and a semi truck shifter, but I still kept the 996 shifter so the car could be returned to its factory original form should I ever sell it and the next owner be that anal of a collector/enthusiast. Something to think about, at least, as the used dash components have little value if you were to sell them.

Would totally depend upon the buyer, I for one would not pay a cent for factory navigation as they tend to be underfeatured and over priced to update.

I went only for one that had a PCM2...

Thanks! I was looking on Ebay and there were a couple available unlocked.

I did find out that I would need to buy brackets and the navigation disks for PCM 2.0 are dated. I'm going to stay with the CDR23 and enjoy the exhaust notes of my C2.
