If money were not an issue for us, you know we'd try to buy it (to go along with our Tesarossa and Lambo).

Jason made a great purchase. I am fortunate enough to know the details since I purchased my SY M030 coupe from the same guy as well. Deal of a life time.

The Yellow original Turbo RS was sold for $75K last time it exchanged hands (Buy it Now option on Ebay). Now, That was a deal of a lifetime.

The Black Turbo RS was sold for more then double that not too long ago.

I think it might be awhile before another come up for sale.

I think red car pictured is (IMHO) the best of the RS cars.

The red car, while a VERY nice car, is VERY far removed from what Porsche actually built.

Yes, yes it is.
A very, very nice car anyway.
Yours has a much nicer graphics package as well

Jason bought the car from Bruce Corwin. Bruce had bought it for $45k plus (I think) $5k to air ship it (circa 1997?). He said it was only $500 more to ship by air. Bruce would then tow it to autocross events at Devens with his dump truck. Very funny.

I purchased the special snowplow optioned SY M030 coupe from Bruce. It was later sold to a gentleman in Arkansas.

amazing, the value (or what people are willing to pay for these rare birds) has almost tripled in the last 10 years.

I'm glad all 5 cars (the 4 original Turbo RS cars as well as the Turbo RS Conversion which was originally a Turbo S) have been restored and are all in great shape.
