It also has rear seatbelts and was actually registered as a 4 seater when I moved here so probably the only officially registered 4 seater RS in the world 😀
The stage 1 and 2 over reverse happened prior to me owning it, none since then. Have used the car mostly for country road driving and took it around the ring once at slow speed for three laps. (My 964 was my car for track duty)
Car is fully serviced, pinned lines, etc and good to go 👍
sounds like a nice car! GLWS!

I agree that the miles may be driving the price. 20K fewer miles and the price jumps nicely, given all else is in proper shape. The original decals are very nice to have too. GLWS Rikard. I'm guessing it'll be gone soon enough.

to current owners, it’s always underpriced. To actual buyers, it’s always overpriced. Just the way it goes.
Suffice it to say, anything truly underpriced is gone within 24 hours. If it’s not sold yet, it’s probably not underpriced.

Usually yes but i think in this case the car is priced correctly :-)

LOL. Looks like it very much "touched the track" for some of its 6,000 miles after the first sale. Who adds harnesses for street driving? Also, just me / the photography, or do the wheels in the first sale look silver, while white gold in the current listing? Either way, love an RS with driver mileage and track-ready mods. Wonder what the ask is.

I agree re: Danny, the shop owner. He's one of the good guys. Solid driver on track, and takes good care of his cars. This has likely seen some track time, which is all good. 55K miles may be what's slowing the sale a little. Feels like a fair deal all around.

Same planet - bit more fearless liquidity and turbo levels of inflation

Be ready to buy some 10 year treasuries at nice yields vs rat'ed and tracked old sports cars for way too many dollars!

I can’t enjoy treasury yields but I can drive the hell out of sports cars that would bring me smiles and happiness.

If 300k means nothing to you then 100% agree

Having driven and owned a bunch of 997 GT cars they wouldn't bring me happiness at that price but everyone's financial situation is different
