This should be a good auction to watch. Low mileage and looks pretty clean.

The WB on BAT is climbing fast with 6 days still to go.. While I do love a silver Porsche, the colored cars seem to show the curves better to my eye ?

Car is a bit rough and that repair would have been better off left alone. It will cost more to properly repair it than if nothing was done.

+1 on the sentiments above from @cobalt

Seller is not doing himself any favors either with his responses. Not to worry, nowadays everything sells, for a lot!

It is interesting how each auction takes on a life of its own. This one has made it to the final few hours and no one has asked for paint meter readings yet in other auctions people spend days debating them and sellers get crucified for not having them.

i would assume based in the cowl rust and the front end being reasonably dinged from road debris, people are assuming original paint. of course, this does not suggest anything about the rear of the car. you're right though, each auction tends to get hit with questions based on cues seen in the photos. with online auctions, i think paint meter readings are a good addition from the seller to suggest condition of body panels that could look great otherwise. looks like a decent driver for someone. the repair on the door strap is horrible, though. somewhat rare to see a 964 with this issue - much more common on the 993s.

1989 C4 Coupe

Pretty high bid for condition, the new normal?

my apologies. I responded to the wrong post. My comment was meant to be about the silver WTL with 37k miles that now only has 2 hour left and is at $125k with not one mention of paint readings.

I guess any coupe is worth at least $50K regardless of condition.
