The car is being sold as is. Wonder why? In all honesty that sucks you hate to see a car get destroyed like that. The price seems very high for a car in that condition.

Yeah, the picture kind of turned my stomach. I'm pretty sure the posting is a joke, I doubt that car is truly for sale for $37K.

I think it's real but the price is way too high, even for a (low mile- I'm guessing) S. I'm no body expert, but I think that car is totalled. What's the most a totalled on paper 993 would go for? $14K? Even if you're parting out that phat ***, one cheek is already gone!

LOL! Half a car, not running for $37 in this market? We get on people all the time who have a clean car & ask $37k!

This is one of those things where the Wife states " YOU MUST SELL IT" & so he puts it up for sale way to high, so it doesn't sell, & he gets to keep it. Just read the description, he Wife made him write it.

I also love how he increased the price after some inquiries.

The ad has to be a joke.

Unless, of course, they're putting lead in the water in San Francisco.

It's obviously a joke. I'm sure there's an interesting story here though.

As far as lead in the pipes......ahhhh, ahhhh, what was the question again?

Dude...lead would probably make an improvement. We're talking about San Francisco here.
