Default Willhoit actually selling s4 for under $10k

Interesting color combo as well. Looks quite clean and has some nice Cup 2s and RMB

I would sure believe that the miles are close to accurate and it does look like a good price. Now if you could just do something about that interior color. I could do with a darker bomber jacket kind brown but not that "don't drink the water" shade of brown.

Anyone notice the 2000 mile white one. Too bad it's so early, but I would like to know the story behind it, Definitely a barn-find.

Not silver/black but either of these could be of interest to Rlich as they are sound and presentable. Never seen W carry so much inventory.

Yes, very nice car. But, even with only 2000 mile, an '83 at $59,500.... What $$$$$ was that car new?

It's irrelevant how much it was new.

why so low? What is driving the price point below $10K? The miles look not too far off, based on the condition of the seats, etc. Normally an S4 in good driver shape would go for $12/$15K.

Yes, it is irrelevant as to what the car might bring today. I hope he gets his price. I'm just curious what it was new, that's all.

probably around 42,500, my 85 euro was mid 50's and we saw an 86 window sticker posted the other day for 57K. Of course 85's brought a good price increase along with more power. That is the only sad thing about such a low miler being pre-85.

I hadn't seen the 59K asking price. The 6000 mile philly 86 was asking 35K at its highest and most everyone was sh!tting all over that, except me. It went for less I believe. The philly car is to me the best 928 that has been for sale since these cars became collector category roughly 2000 and on. It had the body style, enough power, and colors.

The ultimate of course would an 85/86 euro with 2K miles. The odd thing about this white ones story is, if you were going to buy and store you would have gone for a black or black/white interior not the one it has.

It is low and goes back to my comment about the size of inventory. The economy still sucks and will for some years with current bunch.

It would be a great car to take to the spring fling. Since I have a little bit of a hard on for 87's (my HS grad year) I did call Mr. Wilhoit. Very good guy. All the service records are with the car. It sounds ike the odometer quit just within the last few thousand miles or less.

I'm surprised the sunroof delete GTS hasn't sold yet. I sent him a message about it, and was interested in it for a period of time, and still am actually.
