I bid on this car in January and came up $2k short of it... just couldn't put the trigger. The 72 year old buyer reached out to me on IG a few weeks ago and told me the RS clutch was too heavy, the suspension too firm, the exhaust missing a center muffler (all good things for me!) and offered it to me for way below the selling price on BAT (way below my max bid). He just didn't want to go through the hassle of re-doing an auction and said he'd need 10k+ to get it where he wanted it. Unbelievable!! She still needs a little work, yes the rear bumper needs to get adjusted, but man... engine pulls, no leaks, paint is amazing, interior is perfect. Had these cup 1s waiting for her when she arrived yesterday.
Ordered new reflectors, gaskets, arrow mirrors, peddle kit and some other goodies last night.

My other C2 is in the shop doing a full reseal along with a bunch of other things. I'm going to have a hard time picking which one to drive!

Very nice!

I'm recently purchased a Slate Grey C2 as well....just waiting for it to be picked up in CA and trucked to its new home in Michigan.

Nice! Love slate grey and looks great on the cup1s!
Are you in the Atlanta area?
I feel like I've seen your red 964 being done by Eron (got mine corrected and coated by him a while back)

Congrats! Beautiful color combo. Slate grey and Burgundy just screams '90s. Glad it worked out for you in the end.
Going to need more photos with all the P cars together!

Was watching that auction! Great looking car, enjoy it!

Awesome, congrats! Please post some photos when you get it. I just love Slate Gray! (Grey?!?!)

Thanks, yes I am.. that is my other 964... been transformed a bit since then. You live in the area I assume? I love Eron, he's my boy. Did an awesome job with the red one. Had PPI done on this car and they pointed out a couple spots of "haze" on the paint... first thing I did was call Eron to ask how much I should be worried about that (I still can't find it myself after seeing the car in person!) and he just said in his typical Eron way "duuuude, all you need to do is buy the car and bring it to me". Done deal. Ha!

Thank you! I just need some more friends I can trust to drive these around for a photo shoot.

Thank you! I was really bummed that I didn't let my emotions get the best of me at the time and my non-logical side of the brain was telling me "it's only money". So glad I missed out and it came back around in this fashion. Now I can put the extra money back into the car to really dial everything in. They're right when they say you need $70-80k to really have a perfect 964. =X

Congrats, talk about "When its meant to be, its meant to be" crazy how the car found YOU and presented itself to you at a cheaper price then when you were looking for her
