Very clean example...in a not-so-common color.
Beautiful interior...with excellent sport seats, door cards, and steering wheel. Could probably list the car for $100k if ignition bezel was replaced...and Veloces were swapped out for Fuchs.
Some of the discoloration underneath, on trailing arms and floor pans, is probably attributed to left over cosmoline? Appears to have no modifications that cannot be easily undone and returned to stock. While the turbocharger and intercooler do not particularly bother me, if not mistaken, isn't the K29 more of an upper end compressor, coming alive somewhere north of 4600-4800 rpm?

Thanks guys, the fact that it's well documented and comes wth old parts is a plus. They don't seem to know Porsches very much at all but are interested in my 997 in trade. Looking at a couple right now.

Look eerily close to the '85 I had & sold a few years ago. Same colors & year. But it's not the same, as mine had a leather dash & a few other different details. For a moment, I wondered if it had resurfaced.
I always loved the color & that paint looks better than mine did. Personally, I'm not wild about the rims.

Cars been on the market a long long time. They've been walking the price down for months.
We all know the Speedo has been swapped so I would need to know how many KM's were on it before they swapped the speedo, with proof.
Looks really clean and straight.

Exactly, they repainted it, supposedly 10/10. From what I can determine it was federalized very early with only a few thousand km, but who really knows and does it really matter on this particular car. My final offer is on the table for 24 hrs.
I have to be firm, I have too many bad memories from my money pit 88 930, and a very good 997tt that they really want in trade.
