Seems to be the Rennlist mentality.

590k miles, that's awesome. Porsche should offer to do a story on this car.

Acura had an owner reach 500k miles on a 94 Legend. Acura did a nice story on this guy and got good press out of it. Not sure it helped with their sales though...

For sure! I loved that article. Perfect car to try and hit 1 million miles! Heck, its probably still a cool buy even as a tippy.

Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned!! Anyone looking for a set of Sport seats??

Make an offer! Judging by the pics everything besides every inch of leather and foam looks good.

That's the same face I made when I stumbled on the listing..lol.

I'm guessing someone was really pissed or there was a lion trapped in that car for a few hours! Those are some DEEP cuts.

Someone wrote about that car today on Jalopnik (http://thegarage.jalopnik.com/why-bu...e-9-1792385313). That was a great article about this car in the Panamera magazine.
