Default Obvious Fire Sale

Shamefully and with a burdened heart, I have my car on Ebay at $4,800, no reserve.
I'd wish to say little else other than, 'its the red one in Port St Lucie.'
Some befitting her ownership, come scoop this up.
And i'll be bach some day....

I like the wheels! I'd trade my FM10's for those!

Sorry you are forced to sell...never a good way to go!

Freaking economic Tsunami. She is a solid 928.

Mickster, your sig says no longer looking.. did you stop because you found a car?

OP - damn that sucks. Looks like a great car.. I hope you get close to fair value for it.

Looks really good and really cheap?

What are the wheel and tire sizes and offsets?

What exactly is up with the "1991" GTS brakes?

What seat features do you have on those sport seats?

Too cheap even for ebay. Sport seats, lsd, rub delete, good paint, very decent interior, etc. Hope you get a lot more than $4800.

What a great car at a great price! I can't believe there are no bids on it as of yet!

This is ridiculous. I love my car, but if this stays anywhere near the starting price it might need to find a new home. Of course based upon that I might have to literally give mine away....

Lets face it, fellows. They all need work. Work is really, really expensive. Couple the $4-$8K acquisition price with the car midyear crisis parts and tack qualified labor on top, then factor-in that alternatives performance cars of all kinds are prolific at rock-bottom prices in this economy... the equation says its crazy to buy them (or anything this old) unless you are absolutely obsessed with the 928. Well, that's crazy by definition, so its crazy too.

No, bought my last one for a while. Last Wednesday. But Firemed pulled a car out of here very similar to the one in this ad for 3700 last summer. Hopped in and drove it 1200 miles to Fla.
