Default 01 Turbo, 6 spd, 16k miles...how much

Was just on Autotrader, and was looking at 911 turbos, and found this one. 2001 Porsche 911 turbo in Pa. for $35,450. How can that be possible? I'm not currently in the market, but it sounds like a very good buy if records are available and it undergoes a PPI.

Please tell me it wasn't that awful green color with the green interior.
I really can't stand to see that car again....

That car is down the street from me. If you need someone to look it over let me know.

Except for the bumperettes, it looks like a really nice car.
Here it for those that are curious!

Too low - something is wrong there. Gotta be a story car.

Agree.

Is it just me, or does the driver's seat look a little worn for a car w/ only 16k miles?

And to nitpick, the bumper is quite a bit out of alignment - could mean nothing, but...

Cars shown "by appointment only" is not a place I would shop.

Thanks, but I'm not in the market. Just thought I would share a low price for a 911 Turbo.

that price is way to low.... maybe 2nd gear pop out, accident, whatever.... I would run it through the wringer before pulling the trigger.
