Yes, all it needs is a driver who has about 25 grand to put in it.

I'll trade him my '95 Talon that has a bad rod bearing. It's "immaculate" too (as long as you are looking at it at night with your eyes closed).

It's a little difficult to see the gauges through the rather thick layer of immaculateness.

With a little photoshop it will buff right out. It's a shame the interior does not look that bad for an 86

Yeah. It's difficult to see through that and the extra layers of awesome sauce.

I guess the word "immaculate" is up for interpretation.

That listing reminds me of when I was hunting for a 928. The ads where the seller mentioned how "beautiful" or "gorgeous" or "babied" the car was, were usually the ones that to me were in the worst condition that I've ever seen.

Maybe he was trying the old Jedi mind trick.
Seller - "This Porsche is just downright immaculate."
Buyer - "YES..THIS..PORSCHE..IS..JUST..DOWNRIGHT...IMMACULATE..I...WILL..BUY..IT "



The stick-on Porsche emblems on the wheels is CLASSIC!! Very nice touch!
