No affiliation other than I have been to Paul's place many times - Stand up guy and definitely knows Porsches. With all the work Greg has done on this one, seems like a no brainer for someone looking for a ready to drive GT.

This is as nice a GT as anyone will ever find.
The price is more than fair (actually low, in my mind.)

Nice, but needs CS rims to be correct. Sourcing a set of those will be both cha, and ching.

That's a beautiful car- lots of GB fingerprints on this one. Looking forward to see how quickly she goes.

Man, that seems underpriced. And to think, the high pitched whine in the song Muskrat Love could have been inspired by the sound of a failing belt on that car.

"...before selling it to a Mr. Richard Henn of Malibu, California. Mr. Henn and his wife were song writers/composers and wrote music for The Captain and Tennille."

You guys are dreaming that the price is too low for a car that has 200k+ miles.

Really nice looking car with great colors. Needs the rear A/C louvers to be replaced.

Partially agree with this. WE know the mileage means nothing on a well sorted, well serviced car. But the fact is - odometer does not lie. OTOH, it seems that most of those 200k miles have been lovingly driven on pretty good roads in SoCal, and environs, and not across the Kalahari desert back and forth. But again - odometer does not lie. For some collectors, anything over 200 is death sentence. Heck for some people, anything over 50 is death sentence.

Gives John and I something to shoot for. And yeah - those rear AC vent louvers look like a missing tooth on a runway model. Sheesh. But - I'm not complaining, it's a gem.

If John and I had any brains, we'd box this up and just send it to you for the magic touches. Outstanding work here.

All else being equal, mileage is king.
