I'm not on my home computer and will search for the link later.

As I remember, it was $50,000.00+
Yes, that's the one.

I don't remember the price but it was on their site for quite a while. Not sure if they are still holding it or not...

I was searching google earlier trying to find it, I just can't remember the name.

BTW, what are your feelings about red plaid seats?

THIS IS NOT the website, but another that I found with pictures of a similar car.
You'll get the idea.

No. My wife is still really pissed off that I bought the 951 and it's been two years. I can't imagine what would have happened if I brought home a car with plaid interior.

i'm looking for a "low cost" not low mileage 951 and red is my fav color for the 951, it doesnt even need a working engine, would like 87 or later for the offset. can have some body damage but not to the quarter panels (front fenders are easy to fix) in california...

If you are looking to drive a clean 951, why do you think a 20k mile example is better than a 50k? Perhaps you should consider DFASTEST951 ride if you want a fine fast ride?

The e-bay listing for the silver rose turbo s has been removed. Since the OP is not interested in plaid seats, there's no reason for me to search further for this car.

Good luck with your quest.

It's been a lot of our experiences, that a properly maintained car, with a few extra miles on it will be a better driver, just from things being replaced. This one is OK City, 64k, and look at the interior.



www.bauersharpercars.com 405-751-5200 or call me at (307) 299-1374
$14.9k
