Good day everyone. I am looking at a Porsche that is being sold by Classic Motors of Washington D.C.

I was wondering if anyone has had any dealings with them.

Thanks for your help! Tom

looks like a "pop lot"

polished turds


be very careful, you might get a great car, but they are most likely polishing junk and hoping to sell to uneducated buyers based on the "shine"

no saying they dont have a good car, saying get a really damn good PPI from someone else....a real Porsche shop

Get a leakdown and PPI. It is a Euro (gray market) car. Interisting color, I like it. You might want to look into the price for a set of Fuchs, ($ 2,200) Nice car, based on the pictures. Food for thought: a clutch and trans synchros will set you back $ 5,000. It better shift like butter.

Find out the history and call up the past owner.
