Beautiful car, I looked into it. The bumpers are not authentic RUF, the wheels are. Also it's a 3.8, but they (truspeed) didn't yet know who did the conversion.

From the ad description:
"You\'ll pay dearly for the privilege of ownership compared to the normally-aspirated Carrera 4S, which delivers a very simiar driving experience,but for those that can afford it, the turbochared engine is worth the premium"

You'll pay dearly but its worth the premium...compared to the C4S...

Not sure if its the best comparison...

But certainly a nice looking ride

Look at the gasket between the bumper and the right front fender. It is not hard to install that right guys.

I sort of agree, but it is a pain/not easy actually. There are much 'cleaner' options as I've mentioned previously.

Could just be that the aftermarket bumper doesn't fit well. Someone painted the headlight washers too. Makes you wonder how much of the car was painted.

Basal: I hear you. But when I did mine it didn't seem hard. But the weekend before that I had done the clutch so anything was easy at that time

Did someone look at the car? I wonder why it has not been sold yet. Who did the 3.8 conversion?
If nothing is wrong with the car I might buy it.

Thanks,
Dan
