If someone is in the same zip code as this dealer it would be good to put a real set of eyes on it.

If the dealer gets a fixed fee he'd have no incentive to tell the client he's priced 30k under market (though he should). Maybe someone local can take a look. It's bid up to $85K with 3 days to go.
Agree with the thoughts but if that is the case then why doesn't the dealer just buy it from client and then price tag it for $130K as we see most on the market with this mileage priced at. There has to be a catch. Always is. If not, excellent deal provided PPi/compression checks out. We already know it has paintwork in front.

I promise you, if there was money to be made, the dealer, a wholesaler, or just an interested party around their area would have scooped this car up. Unless you are willing to go put your hands on the car, find a Porsche expert that knows the 993tt who can put it up a lift, do a compression check, PPI and you talk to the original owner, I wouldn't feel comfortable. Ask yourself this, why would they have a 1987 930 with over 95K miles selling for $125K and a 1997 993tt for less. If you have followed the 993tt, just remember that a 1997 is a better and more sought after 993tt than the earlier 1996 model. And the 1987 930 is not the turbo with the highest resale, in that series, it is the 1989 with the 5 speed. Finally, you have to listen to the Rennlist or Google reviews of this dealer.

It’s been at victory motors on Craigslist at $130k for a while now. Mileage isn’t high enough for me, needs to be 80000+ .Dunno what their angle is at $97, maybe a mistake then they get you to negotiate to 120-125 maybe?
