Don't know anything about it however, just remember all the cars that were damaged here during the storm last October. This COULD be one of them.

This listing looks OK, but this same car was the subject of a scam listing a couple of weeks ago. I bid on it in the low 20's, didn't win (of course), and after the listing closed the 'seller' emailed me to offer a price of 18k using ebay motors 'safe' transaction processing. The current listing does mention something to that effect, but I would certainly want to speak to a live person in this case before sealing a deal.

To my knowledge, he's not active in metro pca and is not listed as a region tech site. Doesn't necessarily mean anything negative of course.

FWIW, and I love speed yellow, with the tan interior, the car is less desirable than with black interior. Purely my opinion, but I think yellow/tan cars in general make for a tough resale.

I don't know anything about this seller, but if you look at some of his other items for sale you can see he has a bunch of 911 on the lot. Not that that's saying anything positive.

The first pic in this listing you can see the SY targa in the background.

I'm headed out that way tomorrow, maybe I can identify the dealer and swing by.
