Default '97 Coupe FS on Pelican, 45K miles for $30K or best

Saw this on Pelican, came on yesterday, no affiliation, etc., just seemed like a decent deal for someone.

It was listed on CL yesterday and I responded last night but the owner informed me it sold earlier in the evening. Another great deal that someone got lucky on.....

Seems like a nice car, but priced for urgency. Horrible time of year to sell a sports car.

That was quick! From the photographs it deserved a second look.

Same thing I contacted the owner today and was told it sold.
I tried a 993S on Autotrader last week that was sold and another one on Craigslist on Monday same thing.
There are few good ones out there and they seem to go very quickly.
I left my info to many consignment places and have not heard from them either.

I wouldn't be surprised if it was one of the local resellers such as Truspeed.

Metalic Blue, is that really midnight? Can't tell too much from the low quality pics, but from what you can see, it looks really nice.

Looks too light to be midnight blue. Interior looks nicely detailed. If the rest of the car looks as good it was a great buy for someone...pride of ownership is evident even in the low rez pics.

The car is in immaculate condition and could not be happier.

Glad to see it went to someone here and not a dealer ...
