I have talked to the seller several times and was actually going to go drive it, and was thinking of buying it for a while. He's only a couple hours drive from me. It has been on autotrader for a few months now and he was originally offering it for $14. He had it imported from Japan and had had it for a little over a year. He sent me some extra pics that I will post here. You can also see this car on youtube here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GzVP63xS0fc

That was when it was still in Japan. The reason I descided not to get it is that if I ever got in a fender bender in it Strosk no longer makes these kits and Jacquemond only makes the newer of the "Strosek Ultra" design.

Looks almost 944-ish. I like it.

Looks like a possible squirter block, would have had a flip-up wing too...ripe for boost!

You're really good Rixter, I wish I could tell the condition of paint by looking at pictures of a dirty car.

That is not going to be the stock wing so I doubt it folds anymore. But, the squirter block is what matters. Boost away.

That would look too good with a crawl basement. I bet the christmas tree will not cost more than $50.

After watching the video I don't like the car too much anymore. It got a very nice interior but there some paint imperfection and a car like that got to be perfecto IMO. I also hate the PORSCHE on the front hood. what is that all about?

The engine compartment kinda gives it away too.

I am kinda suprised you all have so many nitpicks about this car considering it's mileage and it's price... Come on now, admit you want it...
