Yeah, that's just wrong. Ad copy written by a nitwit, I'm thinking. I think an RSA might be a nice "upgrade" from my '90. Half the kilometres, too.

Canadian prices tend to be somewhat higher than in the US - smaller pool of supply, etc. And I wondered about the six speed, too. I'm guessing that's a mistake as well?

Still - LSD, lower km, cloth seats, no rear seats, no sunroof, recent clutch and DMF, all pluses in my book - I think I'll go have a look...

The numbers are high but right. I've seen a few example in Canada going for mid to high 40's. One indy in New Brunswick was stuck with a silver RS for over a year and ended up selling it for low 40's. Look around, there are a few in Canada for less.

The shop I was talking about is Auto Werks. Believe it or not, they have a few 968 Club Sport for sale. Not a 911 but more hardcore track car.

Have you sent an email to Keith V (PCA RSAmerica SIG advocate and keeper of www.rsamerica.net) to see if he has any history on the car based on VIN#?

I sent Keith an email with my RSA info when I bought it and when I sold it , including the email of the new buyer
