Whoa! $55K. Guess mileage is king.

Wow, the 1979 petrol blue went for $55k ($62k w/fees)!

I wonder if it was Michael Wilhoit who bought it?

Damn Hoi - hammer of mid-30's for a Super Snake! They sold that one at the wrong auction.

Ed:
Wilhoit had it at one time. I looked in the 928 registry and the photos are his location. Had 50K miles at the time of the photos. He had it in the past. Here's the link but you must be 928 OC member to view I believe.

Didn't the seller mentioned that Wilhoit was bugging him to sell it back to him? It's here somewhere on this thread or in it's own thread on Rennlist.

The reason I mentioned Wilhoit's name is because the auctioneer kept referring to a "Michael", and that person was the winner of the auction.

I expected the Wimbledon to sell for more. Seems the GTS 5 speed market has softened. That car sat unsold for 10 years back in early 2000's for $62k when a 5 speed could be had for $30k. It is stunning and near perfect in person.

I don't think Michael will be buying any 928's currently.

That adds up.

Wow. That explains why their website is no longer working.
