You sure it's the same one?

What's the name of that paint colour?

Wouldn't be the first time someone backed out of a deal after the seller "forgot" to mention something major

What is the 928 Int'l reference? I see two auctions here, One ended early "because of an error in the listing" and the second "corrected" auction started about 7 minutes later.

The early auction had this text removed:

The top of the dash has a few cracks where the defrost air comes out. The body of this car has no damage or rust of any kind. There are no door dings or stone chips. The paint shows no fading and has all of its shine. ... The electrical and power equipment work as intended.


And replaced with:

The paint looks great for a car of its age. ... The electrical and power equipment work as intended, however the sunroof does not open.

Otherwise the auctions seem identical.

What else is going on with this car?

Sorry, sharkskin. I slected the wrong one as the old one. I guess I removed the original from my watch list. You should be able to find the link somewhere on Rennlist. I remember the background of the pics from when Mark bought it.

I saw the car at 928 intl. It is Diamond Blue. This must be a fraud because this is the car Mark bought and I was there a couple weeks ago looking at it and talking to him about it.

Yes it is the car I bought off ebay but after further inspection it was not the car for me. The car is very good mechanically but the paint was not up to my expectations. It's kind of hard after owning a show winning GTS.
After receiving the car I called the seller and told him of my dissatisfaction and he agreed to resell it.

Latest eBay listing shows paint condition "EXCELLENT"!

Also - Shows the car location as Philly!?!?! mark, did you "receive" the car on the East coast??
