They are not showing the actual picture of the car. It looks liek a euro spec car with the turn signals, lack of bumperettes and the wider license plate.
Buyer beware!

I would check it out. Sometimes people are to lazy to take a picture, do not have a digital camera or the know how to even post a picture from the camera to their CPU.

Seems nice, worth checking out if one were looking for a 968. Personally I'd much rather get the one on CL with LSD. MUCH MUCH rather get that one.

Definitely.

It's a slow market for "toy" cars right now...

hey arash... what is a CL?
edit: Ohhh!!!! you mean the blue one on craigslist. Yeah, I would too, but I could still settle for a white one. Even without an LSD. Emphasis on could

Although I like many different colors on the 968, and my likes/dislikes/"favorite-of-the-day" changes a lot, I still love red and white as tied for #1. I guess there's a reason red, white, and black are the most common colors...

Iris blue is my favorite blue but ask me again next week I might say horizon blue.

Isn't this the same car someone else was looking at- Did they ever find anything out about it? Seems odd... be careful-

Did you ever see the car Galva?

I am still wondering if that is the actual picture of the car or not. I am leaning towards the latter, seeing as it has many euro parts and its RHD (unless the pic is mirrored)

I never saw the car but I plan on contacting the owner once I can drive (soon, like 3 weeks) and help him make a real ad.
