This appears to be a steal at this price. I live in San Diego county and would be glad to check this out for someone WHO IS SERIOUS if so desired. Contact me via doc1968@***.net

Be warned, this car has been listed in Autotrader several times, ebay several times, always says it is sold and then it gets reappears. I would seriously have this one checked out before laying down funds. PPI is highly recommended. The seller claims PPI's are bunk only for mechanics to make money for doing nothing.
This guy said he has had the car a couple of days and is already flipping it. It was in Phoenix up till this week. He said he got a killer deal on it and just wants to flip it for a quick buck.Car fax shows no history up to 35k miles then several owners in Socal and ending up in AZ.
I have been watching this car for a while now as a friend was seriously interested, but backed out due to the car getting supposedly sold and then reappearing.
Good Luck...might be a good deal, might not.

So this is the one the guy with the shop in Phoenix was trying to sell for a couple of years? Someone contacted me for advise on it awhile back. Seemed the asking price was in the teens.
In any case, as above, it's not going to run forever so pay up and buy one that's in good shape for what you'll end up spending anyway. (Or run into one like mine that you know needs the work, but is cheap enough that you can do it on your schedule, plus know it's done to your satisfaction.)

Its on eBay now. I don't have a link, just search 1993 911 and it will pop right up (newly listed last night). Based on the eBay info and seller's history it may not be as bad as the posts above suggest.
no affiliation here, some interest in buying maybe, but not enough to keep it a secret

Doesn't look too bad in pictures, but I don't want to tell you how many cars I have traveled long distances to see and found out how deceiving pictures can be.
Money can fix anything...good luck with the purchase.
