Three Wheelin'
Seller's Description and Comments
VERY RARE 1998 911 C4S (wide body, all wheel drive, turbo brakes & suspension). Stock, in pristine condition. Ebay add#190488073042. Car came out of a collection in Chicago & needs nothing, you may see there is another 98 for sale with 7800 miles & the undesirable "aero kit'' at $82k, that dealer bought a car from me last year, BEWARE OF MW, lied & owes me money. CAR IS IN SCOTTSDALE AZ. HAVE DEPOSIT @$68K Thanks!
He's selling a rare luxury car and he bashes another seller in his for sale advertisement?

No HTO O... the REAL story is that this fine curb stonner,want a be car dealer with no dealers liscense,sold me this pristine,needing nothing,best of the best 96 twin turbo for alllllllllll the money(top dollar) ,BUT when it arrived here,it needed about $2,500.00 worth of mechanical work to pass the PPI !!! Upon discussion of the issues,he said "PASS" and I was on my own and the car didn't need anything !!! Then after we spent the $$$$ to bring it up to spec and our end customer and fellow Rennlister(Glenn /BERGAMASCO) who is a "GREAT" guy and customer,wanted to speak to the previous owner before the purchase.. Soooooooo after Glenn has a couple of conversations with this "FLAKE", he bills ME $500.00 for his time !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.. Nope,not a chance..!!! Guess I'm suppose to forget about the misreprentation of the $2,500.00 plus give him a $500.00 tip..lol !!!! You make the call !!!

I bought mine without a PPI through Dave Maynard (who was operating as a buyer's agent) at European Locators. Not only was he familiar with the car, so was Jerry at EPE and the seller was former PCA President Tom Bobbit. I felt safe. However, I can't imagine doing so under different circumstances....although I would buy one from Dave again no questions asked.

ClaylG..you missed the point......He,(the seller to me) says I cheated him & ..owe him money in his add for for his 98 C4S($500.00), for his time talking to Glenn !!! Has nothing to do with the $2500.00 PPI we had to do..You can tell by the add he wrote,offering to sell out the guy who offered $68k and gave a deposit, what kind of guy he is..

Micheal, thanks for coming on and giving us the rest of the story. Much appreciated.
Botton line, $2,500 on a +$75,000 purchase, for a 993 Turbo is peanuts. I've always advocated buyers need to have a "slush fund" of approximately 10% to sort out the purchase of a used Porsche, so they don't have buyer remorse, and become Porsche rich and cash poor.
In the end, Glenn got a great Turbo, you made a fair profit on the transaction, and everyone is happy. Win-win.
Thanks again , for the back story.

I believe the 7,894 mile 1998 AeroKit C4S was once in SE PA and has at least the driver's door straightened and repainted from an incident on a local Porsche dealer's lot.
