Post 160mph NA on e-bay again

Item # 1826651756. Saw this on e-bay this morning. Damn, I wish my NA would do 160mph with only a throttle response cam, APE chips, and custom exhaust.

I found it.

How could you miss this one


"It may sound hard to beleive but this car is a real gem. Car has a rebuilt title. Was hit soft in the drives side door. No frame damage at all. There are so many performance parts on this Porsche. We re-constructed the brake system with Ferendo Carbon-Kevlar Brake pads, ATE vented Frozen rotors and a Weltmeister stainless steel brake hose system (ATE rotors ventalation system helps keep rotors cool for accurate braking)"



this guy is a weirdo

What the hell is "accurate braking" is that like the brady bunch episode where they were trying to decide who was the better driver and greg and marsha tried to stop closest to a cone with an egg on top??????

It doesn't "travel" 160mph, but it does "trazel" 160mph.

HAHA.

That was fun to read thanks. I think you just helped me find a car for my brother!!

Man that just sad. I will tisk three times for whoever buys that thing. I mean how does this guy expect porsche guys to believe he has a 160mph n/a? People like that just **** me off <img src="graemlins/soapbox.gif" border="0" alt="[soapbox]" />

Is that even the same car as the last time? The last 160 mph NA had NJ plates.
BTW Nice puddle under the trans.

Anyone notice the single window wiper? Not bad looking. Has a Le Mans touch to it.

Hey I "asked seller a question"...

"Me and a few other '44 guys want to know how you can claim this na does 160, as a selling point, and still sleep at night.

BTW Nice puddle under the trans.

-Matt"

That BTW was for you Dave.

Hey, quit picking on that dude! I heard that those RUF door handle stickers channel the air flow away from the back of the handles, thus eliminating drag. Tomorrow I'm going to put a turbo speedometer in my n/a so I can go faster.
...Now where did I put my medication? <img src="graemlins/c.gif" border="0" alt="[ouch]" /> <img src="graemlins/drink.gif" border="0" alt="[cherrsagai]" />
