I know they sold that Summer Yellow Turbo to one of their good clients who has bought probably a dozen cars from them. He is big into 997’s and has a lot of followers on Instagram. I notice sometimes this dealer decides to keep cars they had listed for sale on their website, but mark it as sold when reality it didn’t. They do drop their prices if the car sits for long enough, but not too long afterwards (when the car and price starts to look somewhat attractive) it gets raised back to where it was. I’ve seen them do that several times. Seems like they’ve gotten a lot of complaints about their pricing and have gotten quite defensive on social media about it. They have put on a lot of their posts “go find another” and other similar things.

 

I saw him in person w/ the cream 997 PTS gt3 and asked how much and laughed when he said $850k. All their cars are priced crazy. Who knows.

 

They're local to me somewhat, a newer dealer too, w/ tons of cash it seems to buy these cars and hold em. They just picked up the 996 gt3rs from Amelia too.

 

this is certainly a cool piece of kit up for sale!

someone must have had this hiding / lost for a while!

Funny how the pieces are displayed upside down...

 

I know more who have removed that stuff than added it. It can be a bit polarizing. I have the factory Carbon Fiber kit in my turbo. I get some who don't like it and others that do. I do and it is probably one of the first cars to get it so it stays.

I have a bunch of parts still NIB. I have a full set of turbo gauges with black leather surrounds. The car was ordered with tan but was delivered in black and the dealer swapped them out prior to delivery. I am sure there is all sorts of stuff hidden in people's basements or attics.

 

This thing is painful to look at... https://bringatrailer.com/listing/19...ra-4-coupe-13/

 

Yea, just a little off can make the whole thing not work. Black out the headlights and ugly chrome trim and would be nice looking.

 

Might have gotten his inspiration here.

I know I sound crazy, but I sort of like the Talbot Yellow over red on that 930.

 

Things you can’t unsee lol

 

i love unique combos like that. that shade of Talbot Yellow is fantastic. i love it and i'd gladly take it with the [can-can] red interior.

i'd get the cheeseburglar to ride with me to events...

 

Looks like Ronald McDonald's ride. I don't get the people fawning over the rare, wacky interiors/exteriors, they're rare for a reason, no one wanted this new. People are going crazy over green interior in a 996 ? LOL

 

It would take a lot more than that for me,. It looks like a cross between a backdate and update done by a blind man to me and that's just the look! I don't have the time to talk about all the other issues, lol. I'm sure somebody is going to overpay handsomely for that "polished" turd.

Is it me or do the majority of comments seem completely contrived on BAT these days?

 

BaT is officially broken, IMO. The title situation of that car is highly questionable - it's been wrecked...and a future buyer is getting set up for potential failure (to register) Yes, I guess then the car will sell for unregisterable racecar prices... but then you have to ask; why would BaT even want to list this considering the low number it's likely to pull? They were beating a friend of mine up on what his reserve should be on a car that he wanted to list the other day and they were stuck at a $2k difference - if they were THAT concerned about making sure a car sells, why in the world would they even list a car like this RSA? Silly.
