I may be rehashing this one since I noticed it has already been sold yet is up again... what do you think about it eBay item # 290060328730 (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=290060328730)? Interior looks good. Missing air ducts... I searched for the item # and didn't find it in any current posts though I didn't search for its old auction #...

I have it on my watch list just for interest sake.
The feedbacks put me off and I smell a rat somewhere.
If you are reallr serious I will look at it for you.

Its one of the rare "slant nose" 928's.

What's with the "slant nose" reference? It is a nice example though. I too am watching, just to see where it's going to go.

I've seen motors with 20 something thousand miles on them and this one looks more like 120,000. Better check this one out close.

Yeah, check out the seller's history. Sounds like a potential burn. Proceed with caution, and maybe even a blackjack.

Missing air tubes.
Missing t-belt covers.
Missing Wiper Arm Cover.
Stock color on cam covers?
Completely shot hood pad.
Paint on Crossbar is shot.

I'm usually a pretty positive dude. But all of the above are definite signs of more wear than one would consider "normal" for a 23k car. Buyer beware. PPI.

The seller's feedback is a bit troubling! Assume this one, like any 928, will need a few thousand $$$ to bring it up to good condition! The ad is well-written! Wonderful use of exclamation points! Really exciting! I can't stop using them myself now!

Sounds like an engine fire to me.

I love eBay. I bought my 89 on eBay. I got a great deal on a great car from an honest owner. The auction in question is exactly the opposite. Some of the warning signs have been mentioned. One other is the demand for 1/2 payment within 48 hours. You'll never see that again. The feedback is not just bad - it's atrocious. Even the one car he sold recently that did not raise a complaint was junk.

Also no questions in the auction, so no telling what people are asking or his reply.

More like 231,000 , look at the steering wheel , my car has 211,000 & the steering wheel is worn in the same way.
Pass. seat front power switch is missing & front spoiler missing

That's a good point. I guess I wasn't really looking at it for myself to buy (I'm still waiting for my 928S tomorrow--check my signature) but just curious as to what other problem points an experienced eye sees... thanks! I didn't see a lot of the problem areas y'all are pointing out. However, the eBay problems I do see. You can find the best of deals and the worst of deals on eBay... dang'd if they don't look the same, sometimes.

+1 on all the troubling issues that have been mentioned, plus it looks like the engine has been out to paint the cam towers -- or it's been replaced, or...

The shadetree vacuum hose routing isn't too big of a deal, but the unfused white wire off the jump post worries me a little, the hard line running over the spider and airbox worries me a lot. Also, why the dash cover if the interior is all perfect?

20K miles.....yeah Okay?!?!
