How did someone damage the speedo like that? Looks like it was inserted crooked too. Other niggles include non factory stereo and speakers as well as buttons on the CCU.

I saw this and I have to agree this is at the top of the price.
But, the advantage is this car is good to go for another 40 to 50k unless bushings and all need to be addressed and the mileage is correct.
Saw this one:

I heard great things about the owner. I think he has this one listed at $83k and it has either 31k or 38k miles.

Guys, I’m the owner of the car. The mileage is correct. I purchased the car three years ago with 29K+ miles from Michael at mbrandonmotorcars - have pics of bezel before the unfortunate dent during servicing. I think questions are fine, but nothing deceitful is going on. I have kept my car stored In the garage that Michael operates out of, and he is one of the most respected people in the business - a class act. The car is everything Michael says it to be.

Was it damaged during speedo gear replacement or bulb replacement?

Thanks for the kind words. Milage as of today is 35,771
I took the car home other day before the weather came through and the following morning I noticed a small drip of PS in my garage. Its leaking at the cam seal... I should have time to pop a new one in there w/ a belt sometime next week. If anyone wants to stop by and see under the car or wants a additional photos feel free to reach out. She's original paint too if anyone is wondering. Thanks! -Tim

Tim, welcome.
I wish I live close by. I’d like to start indulge myself in Porsche servicing and maintenance. I would lend a helping hand. I’ve been doing mostly BMWs.

Thanks for responding about the odo questions. Much craziness around these cars recently, so the guard is up. Wonderful car, with so much life to give the next owner(s).

Nice to see Tim Holt chime in. The company I work for has its headquarters not far from Holt. I’ve popped in a couple times when I’ve been in town for work. Both times were unannounced visits (I’m sure they love that, haha) but Tim and his son couldn’t be nicer and are obviously super knowledgeable.

They always have some amazing cars. I also got a mini tour of their showroom and shop. Everything they have it super nice and everything seems to have really low miles. I could hang out in there all day, thanks for showing me around!

Yeah, I’d like to get my hands on a set of those coilovers. The seller commented about them, they’re from a small batch of custom coilovers from KW... basically V3’s with shorter clubsport shock bodies, pretty cool and gives the car a nice stance.

Hmm maybe I'll buy it for the coilovers and resell it (with regular V3s) for the second highest bidder price + 50% BAT fee
