Default looking for red 951 for ~ $2k

This guy wants to buy my 944 na so now I need to move up to a 951.

I've got late offset 18" turbo twists so I want a 87 or later, but doesn't matter.

If your buget is only 2K for a 951, be ready
to spent 3X that amount to get it in good
running order.

$2000 for a 951?

So you want a rolling chassis to sit on your turbo twists?

that's a bit of an unrealistic price....

ok, I'm not talking about a perfect 951. I've seen PLENTY of 951's go for around $2k (~ means around)

over the years... it can even have some body damage since I learned to do body work with my NA.

In 10 seconds I found one for $5k
http://autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.jsp?ca...r=&cardist=501

$4950
http://autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.jsp?ca...=&cardist=2321

$4000
http://autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.jsp?ca...=&cardist=1864

These don't have body damage so I was just asking if someone knew of something like this. A month ago there was a post about a guy who got a 951 (red) for $1300.

I got my na for $500 with 2 sets of wheels and in running condition.

Excellent

"Excellent" condition means that the vehicle looks great, is in excellent mechanical condition and needs no reconditioning. It should pass a smog inspection. The engine compartment should be clean, with no fluid leaks. The paint is glossy and the body and interior are free of any wear or visible defects. There is no rust. The tires are the proper size and match and are new or nearly new. A clean title history is assumed. This is an exceptional vehicle.

Good

"Good" condition means that the vehicle is free of any major defects. The paint, body and interior have only minor (if any) blemishes, and there are no major mechanical problems. In states where rust is a problem, this should be very minimal, and a deduction should be made to correct it. The tires match and have substantial tread wear left. A clean title history is assumed. A "good" vehicle will need some reconditioning to be sold at retail; however major reconditioning should be deducted from the value. Most recent model cars owned by consumers fall into this category.

Fair

"Fair" condition means that the vehicle probably has some mechanical or cosmetic defects, but is still in safe running condition. The paint, body and/or interior need work to be performed by a professional in order to be sold. The tires need to be replaced. There may be some repairable rust damage. The value of cars in this category may vary widely. A clean title history is assumed. Even after significant reconditioning this vehicle may not qualify for the Blue Book Suggested Retail value.

Poor

“Poor” condition means that the vehicle has severe mechanical and/or cosmetic defects and may be in questionable running condition. The vehicle may have problems that cannot be readily fixed such as a damaged frame or a rusted-through body. A vehicle with a branded title (salvage, flood, etc.) or unsubstantiated mileage should be considered “poor” because of potential problems and should be independently appraised to determine its value.

I drove this car for someone I met on the 944/951 BBS on Pelicanparts.com and wanted to drive up from NC to buy it. The car smoked on startup, the bra is hiding some front end damage, the back was filled with water, the tailpipe and most of the exhaust system was rusted, even at idle oil pressure would hang around 4 ~ 5, the interior was beat and driving straight the wheel would be pitched 30 degree's to the left you can see this clearly in this picture (http://www.tnettravel.com/dave/CIMG0067.JPG) You can see all the pictures here http://www.tnettravel.com/dave/

Oh, and the car barely started, when I asked the dealer about this he said "It's a Porsche, they do that when you start them"

You get what you pay for
