BE VERY, VERY, VERY careful with this car. I almost bought it two months ago. There is a reason the autocheck score is a 65, but the autocheck is missing one very important event in this cars life. This photo alone should give you enough of a clue to walk away (look at the rear badge and the driver door gap). Looks like the dealer took the 2 off. I can not stress enough how imporant it would be to do a ppi, a carfax and a body shop inspection before purchasing this car. In this case there are "things" on the carfax that are not on the Autocheck on ebay. The car sure is easy on the eyes though

What a shame, especially considering considering the low miles and extremely cool color. Even the best pics are no substitute for a real-life look.
It still has all its door jamb, hood & engine stickers (hood sticker looks a little odd). Where was the damage and how was it repaired?
And who was the drunk, the Porsche or the other vehicle???
I'm a curious cat...

I believe the car was in a solo drunk driving off course excursion. The major hits are on the front passenger fender and the driver door. The entire car has been resprayed. Most of the panel gaps are terrible. Some you can almost stick your pinky in. One of the fenders was put back on with bolts that look like they came from a rusted parts bucket. Others have overspray on them. The targa headliner is sagging. There is over spray in all the door jams too. Very low quality repaint. It is a true low mileage/maritime blue car. Probably the only targa in this color combo. The leak down checked out fine and it just had a major service. The tires are 4 or 5 years old though. Here are some photos:
