Default '93 GTS 5-spd **FOR SALE**

For Sale:

1993 Porsche 928 GTS 5-spd 42k miles. VIN # WP0AA2926PS820096. Clean CarFax.

Guards Red with Black Interior.

TB and WP and complete new clutch are being done currently. Tensioner will be upgraded to the Porkensioner w/ air pump bracket.

MotorSport Inc. polished stainless steel x-pipe w/o cats will be installed as well (air pump will not be installed, but will be included with the car if your state has Al Gore laws about emissions equipment).

Car has a nice custom exhaust system with DynoMax mufflers.

New Michelin PS2s.

Custom Alpine am/fm cassette with 600 watt Pioneer amp and all new speakers were professionally installed under previous owner by pro audio shop.

I have a new chin spoiler and mid belly pan for the car. I will have the front bumper cover resprayed (reason: 2 big holes for license plate bracket need to be patched).

Paul Champagne has the armrest console currently doing his 1.5" extension and recovering it (black leather with red leather interior). It will be beautiful when he gets done with it in a few weeks.

Shifter was just recovered by Paul Champagne and looks great. Short throw shifter installed. I painted the shift pattern white and polished the insert and it looks excellent. New front shifter linkage nylon ball cup is being installed with clutch.

Everything works and everything is there (complete tool kit, air pump, unused spare tire, cargo net, luggage cover, plastic tire bag, plastic gloves w/ baggy, owners manuals, etc).

This is a nice GTS that had a very loving PO. I have only owned it for about a month and I have enjoyed it. Car took a 3rd place at a recent PCA Hurricane Region show and wasn't even clean (I didn't know it was going to be a judged show).

Reason for sale: Tired of hearing my wife bitch about our bills and my toys, so the hell with it, my **** is being sold. She can keep her ****, because I don't bitch about a damn thing around here, life is too short. I'm sure you feel my pain guys.

I have about $42k in the car. I paid $36.5k for it plus my repairs, maintenance, and upgrades. All I want is what I have in it. PM me if interested and we'll talk about a firm price.

I also have an '87 S4 auto that I will take $15k for, see details in my sig below.

I'd say it's time to find a new wife

Unless the alimony and child support payments are more than the toys.

You'll regret selling it after the divorce.

David,

I can't believe what I am reading!

Slow down and have a cold one (or a xanax), it will be a new day tomorrow.

You have too nice a car (cars) to pull the trigger this quick. Good luck with your situation.

Dude, sounds like you're just having a spat, not my business, though.
You've been a great contributor here since you bought your S4 and we all hate to see this. I'm sure once one of the 928s sell, you can remain with us.

I hate to see you sell that beautiful GTS, you'll be kicking yourself for doing it, a year or 2 from now.

Try unloading your S4 on ebay. Even if you don't get what you want, it might be enough to keep your wife at bay.

I think David is venting right now about the GTS. And understandably so. A loving and supportive wife is worth her weight in gold 100 times over. As a man, it would be a punch in the stomach to hear my wife complain about my expenditures being how her and the boys' every need is met first.

Usually ends up being much more that the toys! Child support can add up in a hurry. I know, I could of probably had several GTS's by now with what I have paid over the past 15 years!

I'll buy the car for 10 bucks. Keep it stored for you. Driven weekly to keep it in shape.

When the divorce is final, you can purchase the car back for $20.00 and things are covered.

I have a good wife and 3 awesome boys. Everything around here is great, but she bitches too much over my toys, and I'm truely tired of hearing about it.

Price is $44,000

Once I figure out how much I have in it (I think just over $42k), I will give the buyer a set price. All I want is what I have invested in it. I got it at a good price.

I had the S4 on eBay, but stopped the listing after a few days because my pictures were crap. I'll relist it Thrusday night with better pictures.
