Awesome color. Polished speedlines would look better on a different car - paint to match centers would be killer!

I've been considering a 965... Is this the going price for a 91' 965 w/ 143k miles?

Bad idea with this many miles?

Condition is more important than miles.

+1 plus I'd look in the the "some work done by Andial" and the A/C delete which is an unusual option

It does appear to be a decent buy ..what with current prices being where they are,not sure
about 12k Speedlines ,last two sets I've bought were about half that , note it does mention
10k on rebuild is that top end or bottom as well? Thanks Bert

Looking at the recent market.. Low miles is a big premium (low miles = <40,000). A driver 3.3 is $60K - $80K. I really can't see one trading for less than $65K even if it needs a bit of work.
Just my anecdotal observation.

nice car.. the lack of detail in the photos is a little suspect... someone in the area should check it out. could be a nice fixer-upper.

He says "have parts" so it sounds like he took it out at some point.
IMO, condition plays a large role in these old cars. Most will have moderate mileage (60-80k miles). My car has 78k miles on it, for example, but I would laugh at an $80k offer at this point in time.

I saw the car in person, and super seriously considered it. I'm not too knowledgeable about Andial parts , but my butt-ometer says that it has a plenty of power. Never sat in a stock one but I feel like it has waaaay more than a stock 320hp. It handled and sound perfect. I'm still very interested except I'm not too sure I would daily drive this beast with my skills (or lack of) . Other than that , cosmetically it seems pretty good for a super high mileager. If only it was midnight blue , I'd take it in a heart beat , altho slate gray is not bad but its not hitting the right spot for me yet . Hmmmm

IMO, daily driving these cars will be expensive from a fuel/maintenance standpoint, especially if you don't do your own work. There's also the cosmetic attrition that occurs by exposing the car to flying pebbles, parking lots, bird droppings and the sun that are good at prematurely aging an already old car.
Condition and driveability really come way before color on a used Porsche, unless you are willing to wait many years for the right car to become available. As for Slate Gray, it has to be leveled by wet sanding and polished to perfection to look good. Offsetting bright colors, like stock turn signal lenses and red calipers help a lot too. Polished Speedlines don't hurt the overall appearance either.
If you like the way the car drives and looks, Slate Gray will grow on you (ask me how I know )

How many miles now? Is it bone stock? Assuming same miles and bone stock, i would guess around $110k at this point.... maybe a little more or a little less.. I know of low-miled, stock cars selling for north of $150k... I think Canepa sold a 92 in white with 14k miles.. car looked new.. for $180k or so.
