Default speaking of optimistic pricing

I guess this person hasn't heard about the economic problems the country is having...no affiliation (but for all of us who own 930s, let's root for him).

Hmmmmm,

I thought hallucinogens were still illegal on a non-perscription basis! Obviously dude has gotten into somebody's cabinet.

I really dig the vintage hood gap all around. Sweet.

Get some fresh air circulation up under the hood.

Ya buy um books and send um to school....and look what ya get....sigh!

I could have bought 5.23 of my 930"s for that price...I think I'm the shopping KING!!

But then again, mine did have 32k miles on it, and it is black...so I guess knowbody really likes that combination, so that's probably why I got a deal.....

Maybe it was a typo and he accidentally added an extra "0" on the end. Perhaps he is really selling this car cheap.

Default I just inquired about car out of curiosity!!!

I asked why such a high asking price, and that I could buy 3 very nice drivers for that price. He replied with, why does the internet bring out the ignorant people who know nothing about these cars. He corrected me when I called it a 930, he said it is not a 930 and that they didn't make a 930 in 1983, the term 930 is the project name, it is called a 911 Turbo. Aren't they all not really called 930? He said it has 18 miles on it, never been registered or titled. Then he goes on to say how he just sold an identical car to Jerry Seinfelds daughter a few months ago and told me to eat my heart out. Maybe its just me, but this is the kind of guy that uses the car as a ***** extension and really doesn't appreciate the car for what it is. What a shame!!

Jerry Seinfelds daughter was born in 2000. That would make her what, like 8 years old? She is already investing in P-cars? Smart gal she is.

18 miles in 25 years, now the car is really worth nothing ....to me at least. The car is good only for the museum, any driving will require major work. I guess if you have money to burn, why not.

Doesn't sound like he was very nice too you..hey maybe I should swing by and really break his ballz
