Hi Ron... long time no see!

She used to be a regular SITM attendee... but stopped going some time ago. I remember seeing this car from '06 until '10 I think and not anymore after. When I saw it, it was always kept in excellent shape. Rare color that is not to everyone's taste, but the 2-tone deviated interior makes it more appealing.

Sent an email and got the response of willing to 'take best offers' sort of thing.

Gotta ask him though, if it's HER car -why is the DAD selling it?

That doesn't fit with the story in the thread, which lists the reason for pulling out of the sale to be the misrepresentation of the condition of the car.

The price is going up and down like a yo-yo ... fishy!

Might be time to ask a question or two.

It doesnt look good in person!
The seller for some odd reason sent me a copy of the carfax after I didnt buy the car and that confirmed his lie about the odometer stopping the very day he was delivering the car. Ironically it stopped with the last three digits being 928 so it was easy to remember.

Clearly the seller didn't realize the importance of a good detail job (even a color sanding/buffing can restore old single stage paint).

...and name one 928 owner that hasn't had the plastic odometer gear break? Few & far between I'd bet.

I'd suggest if you want a car you only have to put gas & oil in... to stay out of the 928 market.

Or, buy one from Mr. Wilhoit and pay 5-6 figures for it... and it will be perfect.

The seller put it best in his current eBay listing:

"Please only bid if you know these cars!! I am very tired of people thinking this is a brand new 911. Its not but it is a blast to drive."
