It appears to be Oak Green Metallic. In person it is a really nice color, but is difficult to sell. You have to buy it if you like the color. In terms of price I wish it would sell for $21k, but probably won't. In terms of the engine if its healthy it can run well past 100k without a top end rebuild. Have a PPI done and see what may come up.

Nice collection of pics - but they never seem to include the one that matters most - UNDERNEATH at the back!

While overall cosmetic condition is important (since it's tough to bring a ratty car back to it's former glory, a task I've spend 6 years on with the S2), I'd REALLY like to know how things look at the bottom of the engine.

And there's NO sustitute for a PPI by a Porsche-savvy mechanic.

Let us know how it goes, but I think there are better deals out there.

I think its a great colour but realize that beauty needs to be more than skin deep with these cars.

Rally Guy - I agree that the lack of important pics rasies more questions and certainly I know the importance of a PPI. The $350 I spent on one last year saved me a lot of heartache and $$$ in the long run

Many thanks for all in the input

A couple of other nits: it looks like the spoiler wall is broken (an easy fix) and it is missing a bumperette cover (right side).

Easy to fix both but suggests it was not cared for by a true enthusiast (so what else is tired or broken/missing) and you can bargain a few bucks off to repair those things.

Marc, you beat me to it! On your theory based on a true enthusiast....I'll raise you one.......you missed the "knock on" wheel weights= the sign of a true non enthusiast, non OCD like us!
