Default flat tires
Does anyone know this 928, or the owner?

I just noticed that although it looks good and it's described as a "fine and wonderful car", it's got flat tires. Am I seeing that right?

Why spend $19.99 on The Club, when you can just let the air out of the tires each time you park it? Thinking outside the box, for sure....

$37K in receipts and the interior looks as bad as it does? Sounds like someone got ripped off.

That's only about an hour or so from me, if anyone wants to have it looked at. I wouldn't go to see it except as a favor to a Rennlister tho!

I don't think I would admit to that kind of mistake ($37K) if I had done that. I know life's events can cause a fire sale. Even if it is a little suspect, it might be a good buy, but then you have to wonder about the quality of the work from the looks of it. Might have to re-do everything he did. PPI!!
