Mark,

All US-spec 965s, including the 3.3s have this bumper. See Sonny's for instance:

Thank you all!
You might try doing a search going back about 2 years or so. Not sure what to look for but like I said I believe this car was owned by someone from FVD and these might even be photos from when he owned it. IIRC the car needed some work when he had it but not sure. I also think the wheels were 19's which I am not so sure how the ride would be 18's are tough enough on most roads.

Well I am assuming the car in the 2 pictures you posted are of this same car. When you click on the picture it leads you to several other pictures. The next one in order is of the car in the link I posted. Is this the same car you are looking at?

If so this is the car Bryan from FVD owned.

No no, thats just my putfile profile with lots of random pictures (^_^) lol
I saved those pictures there because it was an awesome 94 964T.

Just the 2 pictures I originally posted on the thread are of the car being sold that I linked in the 3rd post or so sir.

Sorry never saw the link.

Well then about the car in the link. Way over priced for a 91 with 60k miles and needing work. I would price it closer to high 30's, $41 tops assuming everything else checks out.

Honestly most of the interior work isn't that hard to take care of with the exception of that headliner - I haven't replaced one but imagine that is a bear.

Everyone said the car I ended up buying should be stripped down to a track car based on how bad they thought the interior looked (standards are high here - these cars SHOULD be babied but some aren't... esp. cosmetically!)

An absolutely flawless interior will take me maybe $2-3k and a few weekends... IF the car is A+ mechanically, I'd actually seek out this kind of thing and negotiate way, way down... ends up being a bargain if you don't mind a few hours of work on really basic stuff.

On a car like this, obviously make sure you don't have serious water damage lurking or anything like that... you certainly can walk into a nightmare if you don't investigate surface imperfections

But if you want a car that looks brand new, this ain't it.

No, Vin shows it to be a turbo.Sometimes these cars show up as regular 911's on carfax and other sites. But there is a serious mileage discrepancy. The headliner is not that difficult to fix. More inconvenient than anything. If you can fit in these cars to do the work it is pretty straight forward. I would recommend removing the seats to make the job less tedious.

However, the mileage sounds like something to run from.

We knew that, just never saw his link to the other car and I clicked on his picture which lead me to pics of Bryan's car, therefore the confusion.


Quick Reply: does this headliner look okay?
