I'd be more interested if it were 'Pristine' though. I know that seems picky but there's no excuse for not doing a spellcheck nowadays.

Adam, see above. I rest my case. Don't you mean 'OR what'?
I'm no teacher but any language has certain rules which are easier now than ever to observe with spellchecks and the like. It's just lazy is all I'm saying.

Not all browsers have spell check, some spell checkers don't check words with an upper case letter in front and for some people have English as a 2nd language. If the car checks out it is well priced.

The one in Chicago for 9K could be nice, heck if it runs you could part it for more.

Yep, I understand this can be the case and of course there are always the possibility of extenuating circumstances. However I think sometimes it can be improved with little effort is all.

There is a reason why there is little 968 material posted on a turbo board, not many of them had turbos.

I've driven a couple of turbo 968's and may I say it's maybe the best of both worlds?

OK, but IMO the 951's are kinda dated . . .

I think they are both beautiful cars (951s AND 968s).
