$150+ 2 years ago. Today, I will be surprised if it even goes over $130k.

This car looks pretty special and is very clean. No DME.

$150k for the unique color combo. Atlas is a very special color picture doesn't justify. Brown interior GT3 is not for me.

142k for the atlas and 138k for the silver (with the BAT fees. Fairly strong numbers.

This car failed to meet reserve at just under $125k a few weeks back on Cars and Bids. I think BaT is the better venue for these cars, and Porsches in general.

definitely a car worth more than the $125k brought on C&B. this should be a $150k+ car at the moment.

I agree.

However, the seller left money on the table due to poor preparation. Everyone with a modicum of computer skills have recorded the photos for the next appearance. You only get one shot at a first impression.

Car didn't show well at all from the underside. Engine was pretty caked up with dry oil in places not related to any RMS leak. Cars and Bids pictures are much better. See #174 and #178. The small dribble on the bottom of the transmission case is inconsequential.
Never "met a car" that didn't eventually leak somewhere. Porsche's use of bottom engine covers on the 964 and 993 is the same thing Mercedes and others employed to cover this "come back" potential.
Having been around these cars for close to 50 years you accept some seepage, sweating. SC's and Carreras were pretty tight but leaks should be expected after time. This car has too few miles to look like it did unless it's been ridden hard and put up "wet".

FWIW, I've seen magnesium cases sweat oil though the case itself. Not at a seam.

Perfect platform for a Dry Ice video.
