Default 258 mile 1998 Carrera S at Sloan

So what is this one worth? Nice color and sport seats.

It would be interesting to hear where it has been. I guess I can't ask. "Serious inquires only"

Think of a number and double it probably applies here.

One for the serious collector/museum.

Interestingly even when "new" the classic grey carpet looks old.

Seats do look nice and I like the fresh looking stickers in the engine bay (although that could be recreated for $100 I would think).

Who spends $65k or whatever the price was in 1998 and then doesn't drive the car?

Uh oh. Someone reset the trip meter 0.3 miles ago

I would have paid $50k more for matching odo and trip meters.

Just kidding. I will probably never be in the market for a car like this.

In 1977 I worked at a full serve gas station at night. Late one night a car transport with two Porsches on it drove down the alley behind the station. I went back there to take a peek and saw them unload the cars and put them in a warehouse. The next day I told the owner of the station about it and he said ... that'll be cars for old Losee's collection. He took me to the warehouse and introduced me to the mechanic/caretaker of the collection. They had bought two new 930s for the collection. They had an Aston Martin from a James Bond movie, an old Mercedes with wooden wheel spokes, and some Ferraris in the shop. The rest of the collection was elsewhere. The mech as a very nice guy, took me for a ride in a Lambo. I wonder where those 930s are today.

Below is a web pic of the son of "old Losee".

Then you have to add in the cost of a Bilstein suspension, clear corners, front bumper delete and new wheels before you actually start your first big road trip...

First thing I did was to observe a moment of silence. Just like finding an old GI Joe, Tonka toy, etc...still in its original package....so sad.
