Default Looking at a 911 in Washington

Just curious if anybody in the Kirkland / Seattle area knows this car.
Also anything about this dealer. Landmark Motors.

Thanks

If this is an 82 model, then it has an engine upgrade. The motor in the picture is a 3.2 liter out of a 84-89 Carrera. The front bumper looks like a carrera one also.

I live in Seattle. Don't know much about the dealer, but would be glad to go look at it for you next week if you have specific questions I can help with.

You might give John Walker a call. He may know the car and/or the dealer.

Good luck!

Really, 19k for that car? I mean it looks great but... 10 year newer 964' with 1/2 the mileage can be had for a lot less. I must be missing something... must be.

I have a 85' same color (Metallic Prussian Blue) coupe for sale in Boise. Looks a lot like this one minus the bling fuchs..

Those seats didn't come with it from the factory.

Sure they did, identical to my factory sport seats.... Unless they were not offered in 82'.

Unless I am mistaken, that car has been for sale for a really long time. Either way, I'd stay away from it. IMHO you are better buying from a private party (check craigslist) than a dealer- and as always, get a PPI from an independent source...

Good luck,

Paul.

Hi Guys,

Thanks for the input. My Nephew is looking for a 911 and found this one so I thought I'd throw it out here and see what you all thought. It looks ok and with the 3.2L could be fun but if it's been sitting on the lot for awhile........ who knows.

JABSEA, thanks for the offer to check it out.

If he gets more serious I'll have him get in touch with John.

Cheers and thanks again.

This seems like a better SC, mileage is much less with a new clutch & top end rebuild

Here is a link for a few other sites

Good luck

Do you mean the SC with the RSR body kit? Or maybe you meant someone else.... that looks like a fun car.
