That car is a hard pass for me based on the notes I have.

More pics of this one. Scratches on seat leather near controls and on plastic, scratches on the steering wheel, looks like a dirty air filter, billet aluminum oil and coolant caps, which I haven't seen before. Would want to look at in person for sure. Looks like a great spec, but maybe a car that wasn't cared for as it should have been. Also, looks like the rear PCCB wear indicators are showing. That is not the best indicator from what I understand, but would probably be good to either way them or use the Porsche tool tool (Proceq) to check them.

I’m trying to dig up some recent changes to Troy’s (GlockGuru) old car. A lot of love into it then, but now? It’s at CNC and I’ve seen the changes from the time it was at SF Motorsports. Any info or eyes on it? Yeah, I’m seriously looking at it as strippers are my thing.

Regarding the glockguru car:

That car has been through a lot. It's in pretty rough shape on the outside. I looked at it when it was up here in the bay area.

The red lipstick on the front bumper is a hodge podge of red vinyl wrap pieces. (it's not paint)

Many of the parts were reverted back to stock, by whom and with what sort of expertise I am unsure. If you are going to go for it, go see it in person to figure out what it needs and how much you will need to spend on it. It will be hard to sell that car in the future.

Would be great if everyone quoted the post or link to the the car they're talking about. Much harder to search posts and links for "glockguru" to figure out which car this is referring to.

Agreed, as I said last week.
Just a thought.
Please consider quoting a post you are referring to rather than just "quick reply".
Some / many posts talk about specific cars, but don't always include enough info to understand which car you are referencing.

Cheers

Ok this is for vin WP0AC2A95BS783327, 2011 RS The Colonel. Thanks guys. I did see some progression pictures, but nothing else. CNC wasn’t much help. I should have stopped by before the fires started when I hiked Mt Baldy with the family. Can’t retrace steps now. Might have to set a video conference up...

regarding the appearance, I was under the impression it was wrapped. Wrong on my part. It did nice have stuff on it.
Tougher sell for sure. Trying to get something a bit massaged, but not to the point where I have to put some big work. Interior I can sort with Appbiz.

This one just popped up. White/Gold with 8k miles with pretty much every important option. No pictures or much info on it. But I assume it’s clean since they’re asking $200k for it and it’s a reputable dealer.

Here’s the options listed. Definitely a top market car.

That's funny I actually saw that car last week on the highway in Dallas. I remember the ugly blue tail pipes and the PCCB calipers. I guess someone bought it, it had normal plates on it. Whoever was in it was driving about 10 mph under the speed limit on the highway in the right lane.

Porsche Chandler got this on trade recently. I would have bought it if I didn’t already have a 997.2 3rs.
