It is, but the price is WAY high from the comps I am seeing.
What do you think should be the right price for this car?
I have been in touch (a while back) with the seller, who seems like a really nice guy, but that price just seems so much higher than comparable cars with comparable mileage. Maybe I am missing something?
What should a realistic price be for this car? (If you know....I don't). It's been on sale for almost 8 months. That alone is telling me the price is too high, but also telling me this are the prices that other 928s's have sold for.
Is there something special about this car like collectability or something like that? I don't see it.
Any thoughts as to what a reasonable offer should be on this car? Thanks.

Have you spent any time time on Bring a Trailer ?
If not do a search for sold Porsche 928s ,
and see how the prices for nice machines are quite a bit higher than the lower priced cars that could need thousands of dollars of work.
Its best to buy a daily driven car thats been taken care of and used,
VS a garage queen or worse,
a lot dot thats been sitting for years outside letting the sunshine ruin the car
NOTE buying a car thats been used by a current Rennlister and participant of this website would probably result in getting a better car,
it might cost more but you will probably be driving it rather looking at the shadow in the garage for 6 months or more.

NOTE really nice machines bring more cash and will bring more at resale time,
if the new caretaker does a good job of servicing and keeping the car driving

I am looking on BAT, which is a great suggestion. Those are the prices I am talking about making me wonder why the Moss Green one above is priced so high.
Gotta be the low miles.
There's a beautiful 94 GTS, low mileage, good looking car, green, (which I obviously don't know for sure-only the pics) for not much more than the Moss Green one I posted about.
At $35K now with the auction closing in 18 hours. I know it will get bid up at the end.

Whadjya know. $55.5K high bid and reserve not met. Wonder what he was asking. Puts things in perspective for me though....
