Default Two '93 GTS for sale

I'll be back in the states in about a week and will list both our 928's for sale. We're moving to Panama, this isn't a joke, we've already sold our home.

The unmolested Horizon Blue 5-speed w/ sport seats has about 70k on the odometer. The white auto is the supercharged vehicle I brought down from California.

I am looking to sell these, not profit on them. We will be leaving the US in 3 - 6 months and almost everything we own must me sold.

PM me if you have questions. Keep in mind I am in Panama for another week so don't expect fast responses.

Adios, muchachos!

Sad to see you go.
Hope you the best there.

Price please.
We don't often see guys selling two GTS at the same time.
GLWTS.

Was trying to buy Randy's Horizon Blue GTS car a few years back. My timing was off (as usual) and Randy was not ready to sell at that time. Interior is a beautiful, vibrant, bluish-purple color (?) that includes sport seats. Great car. GLWTS and your move. T

Randy - I will miss seeing you and Cheryl at our events (3rd Coast and OCIC), always great to chat with you! If my wife and I hadn't just spent big $$$ on a home remodel, I'd be giving serious consideration to your Horizon Blue GTS. I love that car - rare color, 5 spd, and sport seats! I remember sitting in it at Roger's, the seats were so soft, supple, and supportive - such a sweet ride. Are you sure you don't want to take it with you? Farewell my friend!

If I was in the States, I'd buy the white one. I've been kicking myself for the past 4 years for not buying it from Joe Dyer... What an engine. GLWS and enjoy Panama!

Driving any kind of sports car in Panama would be excruciating. The locals drive 40-60 kph in 100 kph zones. The roads are better than anywhere else in CA but they would still be hell on suspensions.

I'm thinking 38k for blue and 22.5k for whitey. Unless someone offers good reasons to go up or down (go away Merlin!) that's what I'll list them for when I return to the states.

If anyone's interested I'll post pics of the place we're looking at renting. Nice properties always include a full time gardener and part time or live in maid/cook.

Once we get Cheryl's equipment over here we'll be able to enjoy trips like we used to make to the Yucatan when we still had 4 legs between us. They even make 4-wheel drive wheel chairs that will enable Cheryl to enjoy the beach, jungle and historic sites not typically accessible to handicapped.

We are both tremendously excited and are looking forward to our great adventure!

I have tons of family that live in panama. One of my Aunts companies has a floor at the Revolution tower. When I was visiting in 11, they were building this new transit system and traffic was terrible in the dowtown area. Roads sucked. Very few american cars as well but for some reason the porsche cayenne was very popular. More japanaese cars than anything. IMO City driving sucks but out of town not so bad. What part of panama?

Randy, why is the timing always wrong. You know how much I love Whitey. I really really need a bigger stable. My best to you and Cheryl.

Thanks for your best wishes. We're looking at El Valle and Volcan. These are two of the mountainous areas of Panama. High in the 80's and lows in the 50's at night, year round. Adios, Tejas!

No doubt someone will whine about being off topic but here's one of the furnished dumps we're looking at renting. Runs about $1,400.00 including the full time gardener. Life's a bitch!

I would not live in Panama City if I was paid. Insane traffic and even worse drivers. No addresses or street signs, everything must be found by landmarks. Absolute chaos.

I've seen 911's, Caymens and pepper cars. Don't understand owning a car like that in a place where you could never appreciate what it was built for. If there are ever any 928's in Panama it won't be because of me.

No. I won't put one up until I return from Panama in about a week. In the interim, let me know if you have any questions.
