Oh,the Porsche "graphics" were downloaded to make looking at it a "custom" experience.uh huh. Everything about this ad smells and my guess is even after you guarantee that you'll have a wheelbarrow load of cash with you the "viewing" location will change at the last minute. I've gotten more info from a fellow Porschephile in the parking lot of a supermarket. We love talking about our cars! You can't tell me all of the cool stuff on your car other than a few things including Porsche graphics and a pretty blue wrap? B.S.

With 57.2 psi of boost, I guess anything is possible.

I'm impressed that in between all that engine work, he found time to wax it "once's a week". Maybe he means he waxes the CarFax report once's a week?

Exactly, my guess is that car has had way more time being wrenched on than driven !!!

And that ratio is unlikely to ever change....

I had a twin turbo 3.0L BMW that put out around 500HP at the wheels with 19PSI.
Different animal I know.
But I bet they're using the 20% factor and giving expected crank HP.
I'm guessing it put out about 1000HP, which is still amazing for 26psi.

I'd love to hear it!

Have you guys checked out BaT lately? There's a nice red mk1 aero on there right now. I'd love to have it, but.... People might think I'm Magnus.

What do you think the final price will be for this gem?

I bet it goes for top dollar (at least it would in a non-Covid world) simply based on color combo and mileage. Those two metrics seem to bring big money on BAT time and time again. I’m gonna say $33k with the buyers premium + BAT fees.
