Looks like the hood is a different color to the bumper and fenders.....

potential accident damage, hood repaint, and NB for $53k? definitely looks like the wrong shade on the hood too.

Dr. No

$53k for a 95 with 54k on the clock and one of the worst color match paint jobs I've ever seen? At a dealer???

A year ago they had 90k mile white cab for $26k with 4 owner history but no accidents. Amazing what prices have done.

This dealer quoted me 360 dollars for a brake fluid flush....

P-daddy

Nuts!

Not to put too fine a point on it, but to me it looks like the drivers side front fender and hood are one color, the passenger side fender and front bumper cover are another shade of white. Makes it even more obvious.

In any case, looks like they're trying to make an quick few $k... At that price, I call crack pipe.

I thought maybe it was just an artifact of the light or something before clicking, but the hood and fender are clearly painted the wrong shade of white. And, if this car sells and the market is really that strong for that bad a car I'm officially stunned.

993/907

Within a few $k of what I paid for mine new in '95!
Good luck with that, I say.

Hi everyone, I just joined so new to this. I was interested in the 993 discussed, dealer told me it was in an accident but with no structural damage (heavy scratches to the hood and passenger side fender). The accident was in 2000 and the repaired area needed a re-spay, which they did. Dealer offered to put the car on a hoist to show me there are no structural damages, only cosmetic. I have very limited experience with Porsches and stopped buying a 2012 M3 with less than 10k miles when I saw this car by chance. Always been a fan of the brand in general but timing/circumstances have worked out until now.They have dropped the price to $45,888. It has 4 new tires and I’m told they did around $4k of work on the car. Dealer says "This car is a one owner car. The owner lives locally and has owned several Porsche models over the years. We have serviced the vehicle, we have replaced the tires, we did a full safety check, and additionally we also cleaned and bled the brake fluid lines. There was some debris build up in the lines so that was addressed". Given what I’m told, is it worth considering the car or should I look for another one with similar mileage?
Thanks in advance.

Ask to get in contact with the previous owner, the paint repair might just be minor, but worth checking out. The price is still too high for a 95 ...

If it was prestine no accident car, 45k is reasonable. In this case they could not even match the color or quality of the paint.

1-2k for respray.
Original clutch? Suspension? If so that's 5-6k in not distant future.
Do PPI by porsche specialist if you are considering.
I'd say this car is still 7-10 grand overpriced.
