local to me. this dealer moves a lot of porsches, they probably have 30 on the lot at a time. many are consigned.

Cheap? It's probably priced near market vs. the optimistic cars. I know of a white/black that sold less recently, similar miles.

Looks like a good car.

Things I noticed:
listed 138k on their website
carfax is clean
clear side markers
tinted rear lens
doesn't have OEM lip with extension - looks like cup
side sills are painted, it didn't come that way factory
Brakes look good
Steering wheel/shifter look really good, near new
Bolster wear looks OK
Car is a 'stripper' like mine: 0 options, PCCB, light headlights (halogen, no washers)

Had a friend in Nashville who called them and said he'd take it but they didn't call him back. He is thinking it may be sold. Seems like a pretty good deal.

There was a thread on a pumpkin in socal around a year ago, had gmg wheels etc. the seller said it had light damage that was repaired to the side sill. Turns out I got ahold of the repair work order it had $60k+ in repair.


Edit:
The vin for the RS with all the structural damage is WPOAC29907S792934

I know Phillips and they aren't cheap looked to them for my Cayenne Turbo and passed. Ended up getting mine from Woodhouse and having it shipped and it was still cheaper, with a new CPO on it.

Just spoke to the dealer. Sold pending PPI. Probably best, I suspect I need both my kidneys.
