Dunno. But if that interior is in "perfect condition except for seats have small cracks" I'd hate to see what an abused interior looks like...

No kidding. This car is only good if you need body panels. Anyone foolish enough to try to rebuild is simply...a fool.

Looks like it in one picture. FWIW, I never thought I would like it but after having seen it up close the pearl white is REAL nice.

Yeah, same here Matt. Always thought it had a yellow tint, but I saw a pearl white conquest (similar body to a 944) and it looks GREAT

Then I saw the pic of the pearl 951 with the pearl fuchs. Oh my god that car is sexy

Pearl white is a very nice color. My 2nd fav, right after seal grey. Slap some black 911 7&8 fuchs with polished lip on that, and you have a sexy machine.

Moment of silence. That's truly abuse - sad.

There is a pearl white 951 up the road from me in Palo Alto. It really looks sharp. I complimented the owner when I was getting into my car and he barely acknowledged me. I had no idea they are that rare.

Sailracer (Central Calif) had his super clean Pearl White listed about 3 weeks ago in the classifieds. Very nice car with great suspension upgrades. I think it might be sold but you might still drop him a PM to see.


Edit: Sorry, just checked and it's gone to a good home.

Those are rare? I saw one exactly like that in michigan in a parking lot for sale. It was a turbo too... are there any other white colors I might have mistaken it for?


Quick Reply: Is this 1 of the 6 Pearl 951s?
