Default 2010 997.2 RS in Vancouver

Hey guys,
I have a friend of mine looking for a 997.2 RS and this one just came up in Vancouver priced very very reasonably.

Anyone here knows this car?
Also keeping in mind the price is in Canadian dollars making it only $110k U.S

Don't know the car but Scan or MBEuromotors would both be able to do a PPI.

For whatever reason that car has been for sale for about a year. Judging by the harness bar and rotor condition it's likely been tracked and the price would suggest it's been shunted. Just guessing though.

car has been listed for a long time. probably the lowest price .2RS i have seen in canada all year.

As long as it is accident free and has no serious over revs, it could be a good car.
In canada, the RS resale market is not a crazy as in USA for what ever reason...

If i didnt already have an RS i would have considered looking at this car. it was listed for less as i recall... $129k

Supposedly this car hasn't sold due to an ugly DME report.

My understanding is there is no accident history or stories, just the rev's.

I would stay away from this car. I inquired about it a while back, and I got a bunch of different answers from the dealer. It obviously has a history.

Although its a fair bit more, there's a really nice RS at porsche oakville. I took a look at it when it came in. It's DME is fine, it has some suspension bits that prevent it from being cpo'ed. https://oakville.porschedealer.com/p...21194/info.php

There were 3 cars in Canada for sale at the beginning of this week. All of them have disappeared. I guess they all sold???

They're all ridiculously cheap compared to US cars. I mean, minus two cars on autotrader.com the cheapest car is now $190k USD. Amazing price escalation since the 991 RS was announced.

I had a good experience w Porsche Oakville over my RS purchase. They do not allow off site PPI's but did allow someone to go in and assess w use of hoist for as long as necessary.
Cheers
