In a couple of years that car will be worth $20k

If you're interested in that one, theres one with lower miles available for the same price in FL. The price is listed at $15k but he'll take $10k.

interesting. The first one looks rough - the seller is doing nothing to present that car. He could have at least turned the outside passenger mirror back into position. I agree with Roger though, these early cars will climb.
The second car, an 80 Euro, looks nice. Question - would those be original seats? They don't look like 928 seats.

Yes, they are the original seats. The car and those seats have been discussed here before.

That would be if it was a Euro S 4.7l? Correct? The ad says 4.5l.

Fabio, Have never seen them with the rounded tops, but they do look great (bottom pic). The tops of the seats in the 79 are more like a squircle. These seats will be going into Just Peachy (top pic). Doug, My bad, the 4.7 (80 S) had 300 hp, the euro 4.5 had 228. T

@Fabio ... that is indeed an awesome OB ... just out of my 'hobby' money range right now.

I do have a line on a '79 5-Speed right now ... just have to make the time to go look at it.

928 Noob here - what does OB stand for? I realize it's referring to the early cars in some way, but just curious of the disambiguation.

They still made a 4.5L Euro in 80 and 81 IIRC.

OB to some means "Old Buggar" and refers to 1977 to 1979 original cars without front and rear spoilers.
OB to others means "Old Body" meaning cars built from 77 to 86 before the updated body style.

Choose which camp you are in and roll with it 8>)

They look like 911 or 924 seats to me.

Yep, Already fessed up to my bad (post # 9) Click link below & scroll down a bit. Can't believe nobody asked me what a "Squircle" is ??
