at least clean carfax that is all i know and the pictures of the car looked good but obviously pictures done tell the whole story.
dealer claimed it was checked out by a porsche dealership the other day and passed with flying colors.
if the car was local there is no doubt it would have been mine but a little more work being in las vegas plus i have a 993 that is still waiting to be shipped to me at this point.

Here is reality...I was in talks with this dealership...this car was sold at one time for 150K plus more in add-ons. SwitchCars sold it for the original owner...
Today it sold for with 39K miles on it:
Sorry car sold today for $71,991.

Snooze you lose...I was willing to close the deal this morning for 72.5K contingent on PPI...guess I should have followed up my early morning email with a phone call.
All good...there will be another one available again.

The white RS I'm talking about is a local car. I know the owner and he's thinking about selling it so not advertised anywhere. Thought i'd get some expert opinions on price before i make an offer.

yes, i was talking to the original owner this morning via email regarding the orange rs...cost plus tax and add-ons was around 180K.
just amazing how it sold for 72K today...39K miles does not scare me as long as DME and leak down numbers were good and no paint work...then no doubt a steal.
is ping pong talking about the sm car as mflanigan...

Only the best ones are selling north of the six-figure mark.
If your budget is ~80k or thereabouts, why not buy a REALLY good GT3, instead of a bottom-feeder RS? Better to buy the best car your budget can handle than trying to score a steal on a tired one.

They aren't selling for that. 10k+ mile cars are selling just shy of $100k.

I may have a line on a 30k mile car that's very nice. I'll let you know if it actually materializes.
