No response and, assuming it is the same one from BaT, the big price cut is odd. Dont think it is a scam, maybe just an old guy or more likely a widower or something. Either way, it seems like a screaming deal for someone. I would guess that Greg and Mark know the car.

Thank-you all for your very kind words. I appreciate it.
@Shawn Stanford that is correct over $20,500 has been spent on this car in the past 3 years.
I have now received several private messages that my classified ad was not able to be viewed, so here it is:

I've owned it for just under two (2) years and gone through pretty much everything mechanically, interior and exterior. This year alone (in 2020), I spent over $10,500 in parts. All parts bought from 928sRus, 928 International, Pelican and the Porsche dealer. I have receipts for everything. I also have photo documented everything and lots of videos on my YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/slownrusty
The car runs exceptionally well and looks great. Only modification is the rear muffler bypass.
Only known issue is the AC and I hope to have it fixed this week.
The car has a dash and pod cover, that were installed prior to my ownership.
I also have $9,800 in receipts from the previous owner for the following work: - Interior electrical (service headlights, tail lights): $2,300.00 - Interior electrical harness + wipers: $400.00 - Paint Job: $6,100.00 - Engine decals + Wiper Motor Cover: $400.00 - Sunroof Maintenance + Heater: $540.00
The car was repainted by the previous owner in the original Guards Red, there a few areas that I recommend water sanding and paint correction, but overall the paint looks good.
All body VIN tags are present and the car is very clean underneath. No oil leaks, no rust.

Agreed, you've presented it very well here and if you babysit the auction all week and are responsive and forthcoming with info to potential buyers, it should exceed your ask here.
