Default 1990 928 GT for sale

Just to save someone the hassle of posting the link, I'm putting my Black/Black '90 GT up for sale. I'm running it through Ebay just to gauge interest, but the Rennlist member price is $22,000, firm. You all know I'm into it for somewhat more than that.....

Link to description and pictures here:

Rob repeat after me.... Buy low, sell HIGH ! It is a simple concept That GT really should be worth more than 22 K given the condition, prior work done etc.
But I understand when you run out of room......

I agree it _should_ be worth more, but it has 116,100 miles on it. We all know the discussions about low-miler vs. high mileage cars and condition, and I would venture that this is as well sorted a 100K+ mile GT as exists. BUT- it does kind of fall between the cracks, it's not quite a concours car, too nice to be a daily driver, and too many miles to be a true collector car. There's essentially nothing I haven't touched/cleaned/addressed on this car, though the heads haven't been off, and the transmission hasn't been rebuilt (Not that either needs to be done, as I honestly don't think either would be appropriate.)

So it's a really nice weekend toy /local show and shine car, with nothing but gradual upside for whoever buys it, as long as they are a good caretaker. So I put it back to as stock as I can possibly make it, since that's what the larger sports car market is interested in. I'm going to put an ad in Pano as well, my hope is that some Porsche guy who always wanted a 928 but never found the right one will snag her. All you guys already have one, so I'm just preaching to the choir, here.

Holy cow, what a great opportunity for someone to add a GT to their stable! I don't know if I would drive it or eat off that engine!

Great case for getting a house with a bigger garage!

I may want to be there for that, even as a spectator.

Pics, just 'cuz everyone likes pics.

If anyone detects all the swirl marks from the irregular sun reflections in these pics, pat yourself on the back. Car is washed but not clayed/polished/glazed/waxed. Anderson's detail guy is taking a crack at her on Thursday, so she's presentable in person.

For Mike's benefit: New factory timing belt and correct 5-8 bank timing:
