Default FS: Rare Carrera RS Book

As some of you know Robert and I have been thining out our Porsche memorabilia collection. Right now we have our Carrera RS Book up for sale on Ebay. I know it's not 993 related, but I wanted you guys to know about it anyway. It's a rare book and rarely comes up for sale. If you are interested or know someone who is interested here's the Link:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Porsc...sQ5fLiterature

Thanks! Jo

I've wanted this book for so long it hurts. Currently $1875. Ouch.
Rob & Jo were generous enough to offer it to me pre-ebay sale. Jeez I'd like to get my hands on a copy for a browse. Good luck with the sale, I have a feeling there's more $$$ in it.

Hope it goes for north of $2K J. You know ... if you can afford to own a real RS ... why not ... what better companion?

Can you believe it!!

WOW!!! We are both so happy right now, you can't imagine.
$2425.00 in the bank will make me feel at least a little bit better.

I wish we had more of them to sell............................

I hope the new owner of the book also owns an RS. That would make me very happy.

Thanks everyone....

Mine is still in the wrapper in the book shelf. Wonder what she'll be worth in a few more years?

I know what it's worth now

I think everyone is holding on to their copies and that is why the price is so unreal. You just don't see them for sale. I wish we didn't have to part with our stuff, but.............. you gotta do what you gotta do sometimes.

If you can, hold on to it. The price can only go up.

HEY!! Can I buy it for $2200.00? LOL

Way to go, JoAnne. That is an awesome price, although I have little knowledge of the book.
