Given that it has the expensive ($17,880) X50 Turbo Power Kit and a few other options from Porsche Exclusive, I believe this one is rather rare and should be worth significantly more than other turbos of similar vintage (2003) and mileage (50k).

As I said, I've seen this car. I even sat in it, and would love to take it home.

FWIW, when the AD was first placed he neglected to add the price hence the 2 questions! Then he comes back and edits the ad, adds the price and then screams the price in a new post as if one can't read. Then folks like you want to jump in like you own the damn thing.... Yep, great way to to sell your stuff... I WAS Interested!!! Get a life!~

Default New Turbo

I just bought a Midnight Blue 2003 Turbo in Richmond with Aero Wing and GIAC Stage 1 upgrade and 21,500 miles. Love the car and the color! Good Luck with your efforts!

I'm sorry, but Ron doesn't sell cars for a living, nor does he do this privately very often.

If you like the car, get in touch with him and get all your questions answered. I don't know how much wiggle room he has, but nobody prevents you from offering less than the asking price.

Don't write it off because of the advertised price - it's a very nice car!

Thanks. I removed the front lip and replaced with stock as I do not like the look of the front lip. But I will admit I am glad someone else paid the freight for the fixed rear wing. It is not too big, like my 996 taco wing or the 997 aero wing, and it fits the car. You do not even notice it when looking in your rear view mirror.

Whoa - that's a great price drop! Where else can you get that much of a reliable super car in that condition for that kind of money?

Damn that's a hell of a price. My cousin tracked the same exact setup and in his words-the X50 scared the crap out of him--in a good way. It took all he could do to tame it in the corners as it had so much power. He's done hundreds of hours in all varieties of Ferrari, BMW & Porsche including the F40. He said only the F40 was harder (as in skill required) to drive as it had that same type of power. That's high praise.

If I had $50K to spare right now, I'd own this car tomorrow.
