Didn't you just paid $22,800 for it a month ago? and that was when you thought it was a clean title car...

What does the extra $700 bump in the price represent? Finders fee?

Finder's fee PLUS a rare salvage title that was previously unknown. I know this alleged "enthusiasts" board is remarkably tolerant of car flippers, but for those of you who had helpful suggestions for this poor fellow, don't you now feel a little used?

This is usually what happens with Salvage Titled Porsches...they end up on ebay with very "interesting" looking body kits...

K..I think I saw that add. Very nice looking car but I rem' him looking for parts to fix it as it had been in an accident. If I'm not mistaken I believe it was Pelican where I saw it first. The PO has his own shop ..right?

I sure hope you aren't insinuating that 98% of us have been burned on our personal dream car (993) purchases, and if you are, where in the heck did you get your data?

Man, you guys are brutal. Give the dude a break already.

Trinitony - my regrets on the "silver" picture request earlier. I thought for some reason you were asking me. That was dumb of me. Just the same obligatory pictures of my car. HA!

Cabrio, the spoiler on that yellow car makes it looks so sad.

Appropriate that it's parked by a dumpster. Thick as thieves, they are.
