Not a bad looking car for the $$, love the color combo.

WOW, $10K for a 58K mile S4 that appears to be in relatively great condition just goes to show the market today is totally a buyers market. This reminds me of the red S4 that sold on eBay to a flipper (not low miler) here in Indy that I think eventually sold for $13K or so.

Willhoit knows his 928s and prices. Image this car sitting next to one of his $75K+ GTS’s. You would think it would sell fast, and truthfully… I don’t expect this one will be around for long.

Looks great. Because its automatic some checks need to be made before I sign-on to a value discussion.

Color combination isn't the best, but I agree it's priced to move.

Short of TBF or either variety... what else would one need to know? The car only has 58K miles.

Sure the A/C might not work or the TB/WP needs replacing , no biggie. Motor mounts, steering rack, shocks, brakes, tires, etc are insignificant when/if you find one that has a nice interior and exterior.

For $10K, I'm thinking you can't go wrong if it's running right and am guessing Willhoit wouldn’t even bother listing it if it didn't.

The color and automatic probably appeals to a smaller segment making it a little more difficult.

Funny, I thought the same thing.

Just strip the paint off of that crossbrace and polish it up. Would go a long way towards sprucing up the engine bay.

Looks pretty nice. Too bad about the pod and dash cracks in such a low mile car. Probably a fair amount of other sun damage to the interior that's not shown. Wilhoit is not known to underprice cars.

Odd, it's not on his website, I guess he's going the auction route to move it quick? Isn't that the same interior color as the white '88 for sale at SITM that many people liked?

I need a bigger garage!!
