Its a 911, fun will be had.. Possibly pain. But any toy worth owning........

 

I pulled a CarFax for you. It’s been in a front end accident. See attached.

 

awesome, thank you. Going to have to consider it.

 

The way that add is written, I wouldn't touch it with a 10 foot pole.

 

When I noticed it was a 2013 for $39,999... I instantly knew this was going to be suspect. lol

 

Not sure why all the negativity. IMHO the price reflects the miles and not much else. The accident was almost 10 years and more than 100k miles ago - surely not a factor in the car’s condition compared with other factors like service history in the interim period!

 

If you have mechanical aptitude and can address minor issues its a hell of deal. If you have to rely on dealers and mechanics for everything, run as fast as you can. That simple, what do you know, what can you do..... I can replace my 991.2 spark plugs for $109 in parts. Dealer wants $950?

 

Had to stop reading his description after the first four I REPLACED . . . . Marsha, Marsha, Marsha . . .

 

Thanks everyone for the feedback. My sketch-meter was on alert from the beginning, even ignoring the mileage. Probably more of a risk than I would be interested in.

 

What's the old saying? "There is very little more expensive than a cheap Porsche".

Two ways to look at it: I can't buy one at a higher price. This is all I can afford. OK then buy it and cross your fingers nothing major goes down. But most likely it will....

Or I CAN buy something nicer, and I'm figuring out the economics of this vs more money: I figure over-mileage at about a buck a mile, which in this case is absurd because the mileage is so high. At 3k/year a 2013 typically has 30k miles on it so you would be over by 90k miles...so toss that out the window. Maybe .50 a mile? That's a $45k markdown for mileage.

You buy cheaper upfront then you will sell cheaper when you sell while assuming more risk of major $$$ during ownership. And high mileage cars are very hard to sell.

 

Looks like the stuff admitted to being replaced is regular maintenance stuff.

Did he add an S badge to a base carrera? If true makes me wonder what other stuff they may have done with it.

 

Just like the guys that put M badges on BMWs and AMG on Mercs. The guy wants to impress. Doesn't preclude a purchase....by itself.

 

... CAUSE did it for me.

The paint also looks like it's in terrible condition, but to be fair -- it is a 120k mile car in the Texas sun.
