Seems like the "barney" car that was on this site for a while.

car looks good, but quite a few issues. nevertheless, at least the seller is honest.

Yeah, that is what I thought.

But I don't think it was our Barney here Maybe someone can confirm.

Still a fun looking car

Yeah guys, that's me....and that's Barney. Pulled together a little text and some pictures I had saved on my laptop to see what kind of interest I would get locally. Literally, the car just sits too much and it's kind of sad to see. I was going to drive it to the airport on Sunday night, went out to the garage and discovered that my 3 year old had accidentally let our cat out in the garage and found hundreds of little paws prints in the layer of dust that had settled on it (forgot to put the cover on it). It was a moment of frustration and clarity all at once: on one side I was thinking, now the car has to be detailed all over again because of the paw prints, but on the other hand, the car shouldn't be sitting long enough to collect dust.

I'm not dying to sell it as I do REALLY enjoy the car, but like I said, I thought I would see what kind of interest was out there. If someone came up with the money I was asking, then I'd suck it up and wave good bye to it......and if no one does, oh well, I have a great 993tt. Win-Win for me.

Good luck Ben! I know you hate selling it, but only you know when its time. Sounds like its getting closer.

I'm fighting selling the Riv Blue Cab, but that day will come here soon too.

Thanks for the compliments guys! It really is a VERY pretty car and while I "liked" the color from the get go, it has grown on me even more. It's really, REALLY not subtle though.

Oh yeah, and it currently wears brand new euro rear tails.....
