I've always been partial to the early cars, but this is too clean to overlook, especially when it's from my hometown of 300 people and I don't know who's it is. I know where it is, and I've driven by the spot where these pictures were taken a million times, but had no idea there was this stored back there.

I'm not good with s4's, but price seems accurate just as long as he has all the paperwork he says he has. Let me know.

Cassisrot red and Bgundy if the colors sing to you then, what are you waiting for.

.., I know of four 928's here local, and they are not RL's, I've bought two of them.
this is not a big pond to fish for sharks...

If it has the jump post cover then go for it! It looks like a nice car.

..randyv's closet car for 5K more is tempting....

I don't think it's garnet red. Could be cassisrot, but just a shade too dark for that. However cassisrot/burgundy was a common trend. Looks well done up, but $19k is a lot of scratch. Needs to be all up to date on engine work for that price.

Jump post cover is a prerequisite to any 928 consideration.

I like it.

Agree. If you love that color combo then definitely go look at it and drive, check all the electrical functions. $19k seems priced right based on S4 comps on BaT. And if obo even better.

I agree looks like Cassis Red Metallic. But if privately owned why no license plate? That's a dead giveaway that it is a dealer on Craigslist. Often a dealer will take pictures of the back of the car and carefully avoid the license plate area. Just like pictures of the interior where the shot of the driver's seat barely gives a hint of the side bolster because it's trashed or not at all if really bad. However I like the color combo and if the PPI is good and most major things are up to date TB/WP, Top end refresh, MM/OPG go for it.

Good Luck,

Joe

I have two of these cars with this color interior. One of them is Black and the other one is White. I like the interior in both of them. I can't say that I have been by where the pictures were taken but it isn't in Canon City. It kind of looks like the Wet Mountain Valley to me, although I have only been there a handful of times. I have however, flown over it several other times. I grew up in Salida, and I still have family in Canon City who I visit a couple of times a year.

I may have seen this car at the top of the hill where the RG Bridge is, a couple of years ago when passing, but when I went back to check on it is was gone. Now I am about 250 miles from where the car likely is; but if I was closer I might be able to have a look at it for you. In the pictures it looks pretty darn good to me.

Your home town must be either Cotopaxi or Westcliffe.

Agreed, wet mtn valley. Near Crestone needle, in the east valley. That's hwy 69 with the tank truck on it.

Well, it looks nice. In and out.

And it has a few of the 'odds & ends' that are often missing. Tools, compressor, stickers in the back.
Trip odo shows 6 miles, so the odo gear is likely intact (at least it is now).

But...

No engine pics. I would suspect that the jump post cap & cover are there, given the overall condition of the car (tools usually disappear before JP C&C), but I'd want to get a good look under the hood. Ad says "timing belt" done, but was it done right? Most folks say 'timing belt and water pump". If it has the records, it should say.
No plates is a bit odd. Could be a dealer, could be a 'flipper' (unlicensed dealer). Could also be someone who parked the car for a while, for a wide variety of reasons. Some good, some not so good. None of this is a "deal breaker", but I'd want answers to these questions before buying.

That looks like Cassirot to me. I have one those with a white/burgundy interior.

These cars as a rule, are a crap shoot. It looks pretty good to me, but then I only buy black 928s. I've got 20K plus into my 89, and it still needs the top end refreshed, interior, and paint redone.

When I compare it to my Pantera, it's still less than the suspension on the Polecat.

I'd go for it, but try to get the owner to come down on the price. Get the best deal you can.
