This one has been on sale multiple times, and recently pulled off ebay due to not meeting the reserve. https://www.ebay.com/itm/911/3920448...8AAOSwXrBa-18b

Might be worth calling the dealer to see if a deal can be made....

eBay says it's no longer listed.

I saw that one a few days ago. Really nice spec but its more than i want to spend on one with 130k miles on it. The hunt continues.

As I mentioned, he could call the dealer directly to inquire about the car. It never sold on ebay.

I saw that car last month when I was in Houston. It is there on consignment from owner who is also here on Rennlist. Contact owner directly his RL handle is Otto I believe. Car has tasteful mods hardbacks and yellow belts. I was just curious as already have 993 WB x 2. Good luck!

Thread gone and I'm not surprised this probably sold within a day or the seller realized there was much more of a demand....

Maybe he missed the pricing guidance memo about pricing at least ten percent over market.

This further validates my theory and thought process while I was searching for my first then second 993 WB last year. Porsche On..!!

I have owned several air cooled Porsches. I know there are inherit problems with higher miles on a 911/964/993. I think these people know what they have and they are selling them accordingly, or basically fire selling the. People are rushing to buy these so quickly, they aren't even worried about the expensive problems they might have. If it sounds to good to be true, then it is. Buying a car that quickly is only opening yourself up to a money pit. So maybe if you missed it, consider it yourself lucky.

Duly noted Sir but respectfully disagree based on my recent (within last 8 months) experience and two 993 WB private seller purchases later. I have spent $856.00 combined on post purchase service (basically nothing) due to the 100% stand up dedication to maintenance and service on the part of both POs which I vetted prior to purchase with a thorough PPI for both cars, but the inspections were done with deposits on the other side first, for both cases. . Maybe I'm lucky, maybe I'm not, call me crazy, or too aggressive, but higher mileage aircooled Pcars that have been properly serviced and cosmetically cared for, and have been enthusiast owned do not deter me and that is why I have been driving them for months now as opposed to still surfing the web, in search of that 'perfect' lower mileage 993. I've said it before and I'll say it again: Taking them out for a spin is way more fun than loosing sleep with your mouse pad in hand and a dim screen in front of you. Been there done that for many months, years in the case of my 964, not looking to be there again anytime soon. These cars were meant to be driven, not to have them lonesomely sitting inside and presiding over a Garage Kingdom, except for winter hybernation but since in Florida it is summer all year long............. Porsche On..!!

Don't take it personally, it wasn't directly toward you. It was general statement.
