Default A couple of seemingly reasonable cars fs ....

Anybody watching these? No affiliation, etc., etc., just pointing to what seems like potential.

The red/cashmere coupe looks to be a nice car with top end done ... will be gone in a couple of hours.

The Slate Grey Cabriolet, 53K miles with factory softback sportseats, has been going around now since mid-summer and the price keeps coming down. I don't understand it but I think most people think it's Aventurine Green because of the horrible pictures. Seriously rare color combo ...

I think the GR coupe belongs to Agent325 on the board.

Hm, well maybe that's why I kept thinking it sounded like an RL car with all the right stuff done .. I hope someone recognizes the value in that ...

Hard to tell if it is a reasonable buy as there is no price listed for the coupe...open to bidding.

The seller states no accidents, yet the further up it states "issues found" under accidents.

In his RL ad, he says no accidents and all records. Are you getting that from the carfax on eBay? Oh, got it, minor rear end tap in 2010, so he must have documentation on it. "08/18/2010 PASADENA, CA
Accident Source MINOR ACCIDENT OR VEHICLE DAMAGE REPORTED: REAR CENTER"

He's got it listed here :https://rennlist.com/forums/showthre...ferrerid=66492

From Autocheck on the eBay ad.

It could be a scratch or it could be the other extreme. Its always best to take the time to take lots of pics when involved in an accident. I always have a digital camera with me.

The coupe is a perfect example of that classic 993 look that always gets me. Lowered with 18" twists is just... classy. Great looking car.

Yes! Thats my Car.

As for the "Accident" - August of last year, another car tapped the rear of my car in the parking lot at 5 MPH. Caused the lens to crack and a scratch on the bumper. We filed with the insurance compnay becuase the other party would not admit fault. I repaced the lens and polished off the scratch the bumper. Nothing was removed or painted. Accident does not reflect on Car Fax, just on Auto Check. I have all documentation from the insurance company. The only reason I filed with the insurnace company is becuase the other party did not want to take on responsibility.

All of the negative perception that surrounds a vehicle that has been in an accident right or wrong for:

- a buffed out scratch
- a replaced light lense

Ok

Yeah, obviously not an "accident" car but the "no paint" in the description tells me no paintwork has been done to the car, which doesn't not sound like the case. Either way, looks to be a great car and excellent color combo for someone.

no kidding.
I assumed it was hit in the rear by a semi.


Good luck with the sale Agent... looks like a great 993.

Sorry I'm little confused by your statement. But to clairfy, the car was NOT painted.
