As ever, due diligence and a genuinely independent PPI are your friends.

This one almost looks too good to be true. If it is though it ought to be gone by now...

Not even a good scammer. Or the car is a 89 and a 90 welded together.
Love the color.

I recently called on a mint 5spd e39 sold by an older gentleman out-of-state, when I gave him the "I'll take it" after 5 minutes of chatting, I could tell it raised his hackles, and he gave me a runaround story why he couldn't do a deal.
Great buy if it's genuine and original. My gut when reading told me it's an owner who's out of touch with the market and too lazy to do his due diligence.

Some people get sketched out when they hear stuff like "my buyer will be in town". Especially those not acclimated with fast paced Porsche market.

We went there to see a 964 in white over tan. The car was listed as having about 100k miles and had sports seats. (It was recently marked 'sold' on Ebay ... but sold is clearly a relative term to Lance and Co because its listed on here today http://forums.pelicanparts.com/porsc...-37-995-a.html
In order to see the white 964 'Lance', sent us to his other premisses in New Hyde Park. It took us about 20 mins to get there and as we walked up to the car the motor was still pinging and warm to the touch from having been started. I guess Lance phoned ahead to have them prepare the car. It took a fairly cursory five minute look over to see that the paint is shabby, the interior is a mess, the hood shocks don't work, the car has several oil leaks, the rear lower valance is badly damaged, the car needs new sunroof and door seals, the PS speaker is hanging out of the door. there is no paperwork with the car, other than two stamps in the service book from 1990, it might be my eyesight but to my eye the front hood doesn't fit correctly. We didn't drive it, or put it on a lift, but I would take a really good look at anything offered by Lux and without doubt have a thorough PPI
If I can quote Lance from his ad describing the car we saw as being in ... "IMPECCIBLE CONDITION" ... yes you read that right, I think maybe its the French way to say Impeccable. French is probably appropriate here because the car certainly and Lance both have that je ne sais quoi
I'm sure everyone here knows, but just in case someone is googling Luxsport and Porsche you have been warned.
