There are lots of little hints that would point you to question the mileage and I personally would have a hard time believe it. I would also question the originality of the paint and interior carpet.

Regardlesss it’s a beautiful example and it looks like someone made an effort to bring back the pricy cosmetic components. I would say it was priced about right if not high considering the unknowns.

it was definitely a good buy, assuming the car checks out. The seller didn’t seem very engaging and a bit aloof when it came to answering questions. Specifically the one about the (missing) welds on the right rear engine bay when he said “you see what I see”. That and the mileage variation for 10 years seemed to keep the bidding low.

Yeah, it seems the seller wanted to really sell the car and he did put a very low reserve price. I am not sure if this is the same car I was looking at posted in Autotrader before I got my car last year. Reading through a lot of actual owners that needed to spend from $3k-35k to get the car right based on condition makes me realize how you can spend more than the value of the car if you do not do your homework and due diligence.

Indeed a great buy at todays market it'll be a great all season daily for those owners with a valuable air cooled cars and scared of driving it or putting more miles on it

Have not seen a 91K mile 964C2 5 speed cab price this low for sometime.

Text says Automatic - that would be in line with the price.
Maybe he prices a tip, even though its a stick?
Or its a scam . . .

BH car club usually has pretty ratty cars but this one looks decent given the mileage (140k).

Description says mechanically sound without leak down and compression numbers. It is too obvious to say rust free I guess..

It is a manual. FB marketplace has become more popular due to buyer's ability to screen out legit sellers. This seller appears legitimate and is selling another 911.

Has anyone seen data to support higher prices for rebuilds done by well known places vs a local indy or even by the owner? It would seem logical that a shop like Rothsport should command a premium but I can't recall an ad recently that has identified a known builder.

I am doing my rebuild with a reputable mechanic for the very reason you are asking above. However, I have no intention of selling anytime soon or ever, but it is also for peace of mind :-)

I bought my car with a 3.8 rebuild by Mike Callas (father of Tony Callas) with 3K on the build. It was a big factor in my purchase. I would say that a rebuild by a "name" is a bigger factor for more radical high performance builds. When pushing the limits, you want to know the builder is competent and has several dozen under their belt. You don't want to be the only high performance build by some sleepy shop somewhere.

I agree. Mine was done by George at Eurosport Racing and he was dozens under his belt if not more.
