Hmmm another macadamia color, this one looks to be more beat up. My guess $29k last highest bid.

 

I would say 28,900 for the macadamia. It wouldn't say beat up but like the seller said he didn't do much to it. I think this car was for sale here on rennlist awhile back. https://rennlist.com/forums/vehicle-...wn-in-nyc.html

 

Wow - Never seen a car that's been "withdrawn" on BAT - Sounds like there were many mechanical issues
Post by seller:
I noticed a few issues when checking on the car:
– Oil leak in the back of the engine
– Steering fluid which has been topped off is rapidly draining, when I checked the sound at full steering wheel turns it’s making a characteristic noise
– Alternator (or one of the pulleys) are making a characteristic noise as well.

I will have all the above checked an addressed and the car may be relisted at a later date. Thanks

 

 

 

At least I know who I am dealing with now if I want to sell a 997 to you jokers. Just kidding. Doesn't take long to find the pieces of coal huh. I am very glad to have you guys on my side...yes?

 

 

Yup. Not 1 but 2 accidents also. Surprised BAT accepted that car.

 

I've actually seen a car withdrawn before.... Don't think it's the first one, so no "history" made...lol

 

So typical sometimes with cars that have poor owners - Never repair or service anything.
Not a lot of owners like this but you can always tell a dog when u start checking it out.
I remember years ago looking at 911sc for sale. Chain smoking owner - Disgusting smell/dirty and so was the car
The seller used his wife's nail polish to touch up the rock chips on front bumper and hood - Dark red spots all over the original Guards red paint.
Dumbass

 

Remember that BaT started out as an auction site where the winner was advised to "bring a trailer"! They do put up a few that harken to the initial model of the site from time to time, even some Porsches, like the one withdrawn. The reason that car was withdrawn was because some serious issues were apparently discovered and disclosed after money was bid. Created a bad situation. Now there would have been nothing wrong with listing it with the issues fully disclosed at the outset, and BaT likely would have insisted on a no reserve auction.

Anyway, what's up next?

 

Can someone steer me in the right direction of the blue 997 GTS that sold for something crazy in the $90K range? Can't find it. Thx in advance.

 

$97,999 + 5% BAT fee

Little OT but this 1977 911s 930 Turbo powered P-car on BAT ending in 2 days has got to be awesome:

My favorite driver Porsche was my 1977 911s - Silver w/black leather and had the engine issues addressed with these engines: New Devlar head studs and 11 blade fan upgrade for better cooling
Also had the H4 headlights with color matched trim rings - Just an all around fun car to drive.
I can't imagine what a beast this car would be with a 930 planted in the back!

Here' my 77s before I installed the H4 headlights
