Default **SOLD** 2003 C4S - 6 speed - seal grey/blk - heated seats - 114K mi - $19,750

all,
so a 30' diesel Luhrs boat has come on the market close to my home and i must have it.
i sold my other 03 C4S to "thin_concrete" not long ago and missed it so much that i replaced it with my current C4S 2 months ago that i found in california.
i know it all sounds nuts but that's life - i've been known to sell my later model porsches after only owning them a short time but i do love the hunt. it's not like i won't be able to find another C4S - unlike my 359 and early 911

**located in seattle wa. - this is a great car for anyone looking for a C4S at a really great price.

since the photos are so large and i can't figure out how to minimize them.
i can email them directly to you - please contact me directly - no PM's:
cerialephotography@yahoo.com

i believe in being totally upfront and forthright in my description - the only reason i purchased this car was i missed mine so much - this boat is a rare bird and extremely hard to find.

this is a california car first owned by a doctor and then i purchased from previous owner was a sacramento calif police officer who is also a 356 owner - we bonded well! he retired and is having health issues.

this C4S is a great example - vin#WP0AA29923S623580 - clear/clean title in my name - seal grey/full black leather with heated seats and the rear wiper - very presentable and looks beautiful - this car runs and drives like new - it does have some imperfections on the body as follows:
-carfax showed minor accident in 2004 - front bumper was backed into in parking lot and never repaired - very small blemish as seen in photo - it is there but i wouldn't touch it.
also some small scratches and a few tiny tiny dings here and there from normal wear which are very hard to notice unless pointed out.
the very lower rear plastic inner fender well cap has a crack - again very hard to notice unless on a lift. small scratches under rear license plate. i also just notice that the passengers side rear seat bottom pad has some cracking - i always keep the rear seat backs in the down position and only noticed this recently.

the car was well serviced and i have a list from shop that worked on the car - the owner of the shop couldn't give me the records but gave me dates/mileage and services performed below - **the car is running on it's original IMS bearing - when i spoke to the shop owner he explained that there was never a reason to replace it as it was checked when clutch was replaced and never any play. the car runs like it is new.
service history from Franks German Auto in Sacramento Calif:
- 3/12/2010 75,182 - Full 75K service
- 10/25/2010 82,500 - Oil service
- 3/7/11 - Ignition switch replacement
- 9/29/11 - 90K - Full service, clutch install & replace rms
- 10/4/11 - 90,828 - Reseal front differential output shaft seals
- 12/7/11 - 91,143 - Replaced battery
- 5/11/12 - 95,703 - water pump, Thermostate, coolant flush, oil change, Charge A/C
- 12/03/12 - 104,791 - 105K full service
- 2/13/13 - 106,939 - Reset throttle adaptations
- 1/30/14 - 112,051 - Oil service, replace all wipers, replace water pump, replace outer cv boots(R&L), replace sensor links for ride height sensors
- 3/19/15 - 113,405 - Oil service, brake fluid flush, replace 1 key fob
- 3/27/15 - 4 New michelin tires and new OEM german windshied due to rock chip in drivers vision.
- all 4 wheels refinished by PO 3 months ago

i have both keys, original owners manuals in it's leather pouch, all tools/spare tire,etc are intact and never used. includes really nice porsche car cover too.

- if you feel uncomfortable driving on the original IMS bearing, spend the $1600 and replace it - you'll still be in the car less than $22K - that math should make any buyer feel happy!

$19,750 firm - if anyone questions my integrity please PM thin_concrete and he can tell you how are car deal went not long ago
**car can be shipped to calif for about $650 open carrier

all the best!

So pretty what a great deal. But where is the phone holder I just don't understand where the hell you keep your phone.

Seriously very good looking car. Obviously well maintained. Price is a steal! Good luck

Seems like a nice car Goovzilla, and I think you will sell it pretty easily at less than 20K, even with 114K miles.
If I was in the market for this, I would be very interested.

Regarding the maintenance log, I'm curious about why the clutch and RMS needed to be replaced twice in less than 10K miles, and likewise the water pump??

Made me also wonder if the Maintenance records are legit... Also not the best of deals for a car with 114,000 miles on it no matter what mods have been added. Not saying it is over priced, just saying there are a lot un-modded miles cars out there for same money. Years to me doesnt matter. Miles do. The year in this case gets squashed because of the milage.

Boy that was a record time. Dejavu all over again. Best of luck.

BTW, your gonna have to knock it down some due to the original pumpkins which seriously devalues this car.

my mistake, copying off my service list - clutch replaced at 90K miles - not again at 95K - only replaced 1x

i must say you sound pretty clueless - if you're going to crap on someones for sale post at least come across somewhat educated - maybe if you spelled "mileage" properly and made some sense i would have given you some credit, but find me a sub $20K C4S in this condition and i'll buy it for you - 114K is nothing on these cars especially well serviced examples

remember this isn't a run of the mill narrow body - this is a C4S which puts it in a different category

If I didn't own one already (C2), I would have taken it.

Man, take it easy on the non-native speaker.

I too would be all over that car if I had a slot in the garage open. Good luck. See you in a few months when you buy the next one.

Heh - you can't sell to him unless you "accidentally" give him the title to a '71 Winnebago.
