I do not have the glove markings and who knows what happened. Maybe a shop damaged it when working on it sometime and they needed to order a new one.

I will have more info listed as soon as I get my 951 a good battery and get over to the garage, but it will be today.
Completely spaced on posting the VIN and the title is clean and clear.

Dino, Rader's old speed yellow M030 coupe is also a North American car with the sunroof delete so they are out there. i have the information. I just always look for the options the car has, not the ones it doesn't have so there may be more.

Where exactly is the option sticker? I looked under the rear carpet and didn't see it...

However I snapped a pic of the VIN and a neato one of the fuel door

To appease the masses and from a recommendation of another 'lister, how about we say "25k" or OFFER. Get my drift

The car does have the spare and the factory air pump in it, and I just found a log book that listed every time the original owner put gas in it and his mpg. Amazing detail, he must have been an accountant, ha! This was a 1-owner car, and it was purchased from Bellevue Porsche, here in Washington. Car had 12 miles on it at the time of delivery, and per his fuel log, he broke 30mpg once.

Looks like I guessed right. Options are listed above.

I am just curious as hell as to what happened to the owner. Most likely he passed away but he also could be sitting in a cell somewhere. That might even be more likely and would explain why no relatives claimed the car for him.

Default Title?

Were you able to get a title for this car? If so, how, since the owner is MIA?

Or is it being sold without title?

No problem with the title, its clean, clear and no problems.
The owner (from what we gather) was going through some major depression and just shut his door basically. He just left it all.

And the title was had since he didn't pay his storage bill and the car became property of the storage facility. Its the same thing that happens when your car gets towed and you don't pay the bill. After a period of time goes by, your car goes bye-bye.

And Jeff968, nice call on the options!
