That's it!

Amazing how small this world is at times - it had an off beat sound and looked like it had seen some rough weather conditions - assumed it needed some TLC.

I don't really have issues with someone putting a body kit on their car...I do take issue with someone trying to pass it off as the real thing, which he apparently did with you. He does seem to drive it year round based on the different pics around.

It is -IMHO- too early for this thread to die.

Default 959 and its Rival

Great start to the 959-thread!!

Anyone that has a 959 please get in touch with PM/Email me. I maintain an archive of owners, cars, and pertinent info for 959's.




Thanks!!

Gooding just sold a Sport for $1,705,000 at their Scottsdale auction (I assume there was a Buyer's Premium on top of this price). Four owners, 18,000 km. They sold a Comfort version for $1,485,000 at Pebble. Again, plus Buyer Premium. Three owners, 8,000 km. Canepa still has two for sale and I'm guessing the price just went up.

Both of the prices you quote include the 10% buyer's premium, and each was a respective world record for a 959.

I'm sure Canepa's prices now begin with 2's...

Secret collector: good to know the premium was included, and, I believe the one Canepa has with 300 miles does start with a 2; don't know about the Pearl White one.

The Red one is 2.2 and Pearl White one 2.
At least this was asking two months ago.
