Default Lipstick Red Interior

Auction 220108411525

My daughter just loves the interior in this car. We looked at it on eBay several weeks ago for fun. She's only 14 so I hadn't really considered buying anything for her yet but may entertain the idea if it stays low.

My question is, why is this car back up on ebay again? I'm pretty sure it was a private sale last auction. Now it's a dealer. I didn't see the end of the previous auction so I don't know what it went for... Low?

Does anyone know this car/PO. Thanks.

Sorry I can't help you with you request for specific knowledge of this car. I was shopping and saw the car on ebay, but as totally unable to get past the lipstick red interior. I can undertand that a young female would see it in a different light. I would have to assume that the dealer obained the car at a good price for the reason stated above, and is trying to turn a profit. In truth, I expect that your daughter would be a hit with her friends if you picked this one up for her. Good hunting.....

I like the white / red combination. I had a 911 that was white with lipstick red interior. Got a lot of compliments on that car. In fact, someone liked it so much they stole it The car looks like a good deal, I wonder what the reserve is

Maybe it's just the camera or my computer monitor, but that doesn't look like the color I was expecting. Looks like a "salmon" shade. The real flashy red interior color I was expecting is called "CanCan", I believe, and looks like a red lipstick might look. It's rare and I rather like it, at least on other people's cars.

I like it too. I was considering buying a 911 turbo-look that was black with a CanCan red interior. It just seemed right, but I couldn't work up the stones to part with that much cash for another toy. Even though I know I did the right thing by passing, I still regret the decision.

It's definitely not for the faint of heart, but you really have to appreciate the sheer audacity of it.

This one's been for sale forever! Maybe you can go easier on the wallet and get the car of your color choice, with GTS upgrades, for less..........

Thanks Todd, I've spoken to Leo the owner for years on this one when I first started looking. I found this one right away and thought well there must be quite a few available but not so.

Same here. I remember talking to him about this car at least 2 years ago. It really does look like an awsome car, but for whatever reason, it's never sold.

I love my interior and wouldn't trade it for anything. It's exotic!

Wow John nice interior, almost identical to mine, and I would agree with you on it being exotic!
