That is gorgeous I recall that car being for sale back in 2005 when I was looking for mine I wanted to buy it but they were asking $72k for it back then. Settled on Amazon green instead.

Drive it like you stole it they are great cars and that one is exceptionally unique.

I agree Michael was a great guy to buy from he sold me mine as well.

Maybe we can get you to bring it out to some of our concours events we are hosting Zone 1 in a few weeks.

NNJR is hosting the concours event is May 16th. I have Raj from the 968 forums bringing his 968 turbo tribute featured in Pano a few months back along with my friend Mike bringing his 3.6 Turbo from the movie Bad Boys.

Hope to see you there.

Sound good I still have to have the 928 shipped home but maybe show up with one of the other cars.

rop3 - I and several others are a little confused - it appears that your car is for sale on eBay, not to mention Willhoits website, yet there is no mention of it in this thread. What gives

somebody is fishing w/o a line. My money is on MH as having a line. I can't think he is selling something he doens't own.

I just bought a pristine black on black 5-speed 1985 S, which is now in Florida, where I bought it, awaiting completion of a complete rebuild of the a/c. I am planning, on advice obtained here, to pep up the car with a Porken chip, an X-pipe, and an 87 fuel pump. I have not yet taken delivery of the car, and figure I might as well have the mods done at the same shop that's doing the a/c and fixing an electrical gremlin. thanks in advance for help penetrating the 928 OC security wall!
I have never been able to do it either.

Hey, I see you registered last October but had some problems then and I emailed you back with a temporary password. I just sent another one a few minutes ago; hopefully that will get thru and work for you.

Now back to the regularly scheduled program.......

My reading of the weirdness is that he negotiated a deal off Willhoit, bought the car, and is trying to flip the car for profit in the current bubble. MW has seen it for sale and is trying to buy it again.

Of course, I'm probably wrong, the internet is often more weird than I expect!
