928S4 $4900 on PCA website...
No affiliation but this was passed along to me by a fellow Porsche owner. Looks to be a steal at this price as long as it is reasonably well sorted. In case anyone is the market...

Someone needs to check this out and see if it's just ridiculously underpriced or what's wrong with it.

Did anyone notice the carpet pulled away by the engine computers? Wonder if something is up there. Either way looks well priced even if it has some issues.

Someone needs to call this guy just to find out why there is a slinky hanging from the visor.

I heard back from the seller. In a nutshell per their mechanic it needs torque tube, brakes, brake booster, odometer does not work, AC does not work, leaks oil out of some seals, one power steering boot, power steering line leaking and car has been repainted and was told its "decent". The owner was quite forward and honest. I really wouldn't call this a good deal after all...
Oh and the slinky is extra... but can be included at the right price.
