Here I was ready to trade this car for that one:

We all make mistakes. Some of us admit it and stay...and we get right back in the tank.

Well, on the first return he showed some signs of contribution and built a little trust with the CIS / L-Jet comparison thread.
Then, right back to the "this has got to be worth a fortune after we refreshed it with paint!" path.

The only reason that 31 year old car has survived upstate NY is the galvanization. Lets wire brush it.

I wonder why someone would go out of their way to keep mentioning at every opportunity that the car is 31 years old. How would that help to sell the car... A much better idea is to list the things on the car that are NOT 31 years old.

Problem with almost any car seen in here is that they have issues, many of them. Few people who come here to sell some of these cars try to make them look like they are something special which we haven't seen since 928's left dealer floor. Reality is that we have seen it all so many times that we know exacly what kind of piece of s&¤# 99.9% of all 928's are regardless of how good they look. It doesn't help that most of these sellers don't have 1% of knowledge compared to average owner who regularly reads Rennlist yet still thinks they can get away with silly sales talk.

We have decided we do not want to be apart of this 928 community. Too many of you are the kind of people I don’t associate with in life yet alone on a forum. You should all learn from this. You had very inspired 928 newbie trying to become part of a community which is enthused with their 928 cars as he is. Because it took years to put your tight group of people together, like all forums, you do not let anyone inside the circle. That's ok, and I know that’s how forums work. Unfortunately you pushed aside a very inspired and motivated 928 lover.

And P.S.
Our mecanic, had a huge shop in redneck TEXAS for over 25 years, raced, repaired, and modified 928's all his life. He even tried NASCAR but didnt qualify. He says he has a good laugh when I bring him here. To me that says it ALL

IF I TOLD YOU HIS MANE. HE SAID ALL OF YOU WOULD KNOW HIM / BUT I DONT HAVE HIS PERMISSION

YOU ALL ARENT THE ONLY ONES WITH NICE 928's

Sorry for all the trouble, hope you were all entertained. (no charge for the entertainment)




It sounds like this fellow has some serious sand packed into his mangina.

Time to douche.

You've been trying to sell the car for some time without much luck. You would have been better served by coming in here and asking for some help. You didn't, but several people offered it anyway. Take offense if you want, but they are right.
