Uncle Leo would not approve of that price.

Default Interesting trades considered?

Great car, fun to watch, but technically 993 RSR 029 was the last air cooled 911 to leave the factory for North America

I consider myself a Porsche guy but rennlist never fails to teach me things. Those RSR's are dream car material btw. I'll edit the caption.

Love this thread! Does anyone have any experience with the seller, or any information about them?

I read somewhere that Seinfeld only sells his mistake purchases and keeps the remaining Porsches in his collection.

Some might say that the target market for this 993 is a left-leg amputee with a mega disability settlement who is also a Seinfeld fan.

No need, I'm sure everyone here would agree that mixing street and motorsport isn't fair when it comes to these things, but just for fun here's a photo from '99. It came with an extra set of wheels and discount to $118k because they had a hard time getting rid of it ;

This car was listed on eBay 14 years or so ago for $75K. I've always wondered when it would show up again. GLWS

I've seen some seriously cool cars come out of his collection. That wing-less 991.1 GT3 RS (for example) was a unicorn. Either way, different strokes for different folks I guess.

EDIT: I've also done some research and don't know what article you're referring to...

The things you've said tell me that you don't like this car. The amount of times you've interacted with this thread tells me you secretely love it and keep coming back to admire it

Lol.

No, more like not being able to take your eyes off an accident scene.

The good part is that we are keeping your tipster at the top of the classifieds queue.
