Wayne is a crook. You will certainly get fleeced if you purchase from him.

996 Turbos are fantastic cars to buy, but a big part of what makes them fantastic is the bang-for-the-buck. Super-car performance at Honda prices.

And while prices where on the rise (we will see what winter season brings), very few of these lower mile X50 cars are bring anywhere near the stratospheric prices some are asking.

Terrible pictures too for an $80K asking price car...

Not really, no. Maybe one that has been well cared for but with 300k miles, or a lower mileage car that was ridden hard and put away wet. Or a tip cab maybe.

It was a little joke Rick. Z06801 has his very well cared for 150k mile Turbo for sale in the classifieds for $30k.
