That is cheap. Depends on the condition. If you look at the pictures, they have other Porsches for sale. My guess is they are aware it's an "S", they're just selling it cheap for some reason.

That's definitely one that you'd have to see in person to judge. Some of it looks pretty good (e.g., the seats and door panels), but the missing batwing, bulging on the passenger side of the nose, and misplaced turbo emblem could spell trouble. OTOH, it has its original, cracking stone guards, so perhaps most of the paint really is original. The motor looks pretty clean, although the LBE tells you that someone's been messing around in there. I find it hard to imagine buying a 951 off a used car lot with a window sticker stating "Like New," though...

My 951S has passenger side airbags. Maybe there's a cap on the dash. Unusual side bolsters on there, too -- I wonder if that was a re-upholster job. But $10k for a SilverRossa car is not bad -- it gets lower sometimes, but very rarely.

Not impressed by the pictures. If I was spending the money, I would spend 20k on a nice early 90s 911.
But they only want 10 you say. Yes, but by the time you get that car up to snuff you will say "why didn't i spend the money on a 911".

Notice the holes in the rear bumper? How about the black plugs on either side of the license plate? This car had one of those lenses that span the distance between the taillights at one time.

Could it be because if you spent 20K on a 911, after two years you could get most of your $ back. if you poured 20k into that dog you lose your shirt when you want to get rid of it?
Look at this link from a link in the member to member classifieds. $23K, mi 37K

seriously, if i sell my firebird, and she who must be obeyed says OK, and some other things fall into place (like I sell the house) I would put that in the garage instead of my S2 AND firebird.
