Default Does anyone know this 964 for sale in Canada??

I'm looking for a nice 964 and saw this posted elsewhere on RL responding to a WTB advert: http://losangeles.craigslist.org/wst...278078402.html

Does anyone know this car?? Why is it not posted in the Cdn for sale forums?? I cannot even find it on Autotrader.ca

The description seems really over done -no?

I notice it has a Mantis Racing license plate frame so that could be a clue it's west end GTA. Nice car for sure.

I like the 964 C2s. It is written by an enthusiast trying a little hard to maket it but can't argue any of the points made. Priced a little high IMO. there is another one on the CDN for sale section also red but a c4 I think.

Holy crap...read this crap "I purposely put this ad in CA Craigslist because thats where it belongs. Running on west coast highway 1 with the ocean in the background! ... this is really hard for me to write this ad."

There is not a chance in hell this is a real ad. lol

This car may have an extensive rebuilt-fire damage report. The new license plates may indicate that the owner just acquired this 964. I looked at a similar 964 last month at World Fine Car that sold for $12,000 because of the damage history. When I went back to purchase the car despite the rebuild status, it had already sold.

In the end, just ask him when and where he purchased this 911 and ask for the VIN to run a Carproof/CarFax......the history IS there.

LOL. Funny ad.

I have no interest in the car, but I just emailed him for you guys asking him where he is in Canada. Ill let you know if I receive a reply.

Often, when something seems fishy like this ad, there is a reason.

Nice ad for a nice car. I've read very similar ads before and they scare me!

I think this may be the car I inspected for a potential California buyer about 5-6 weeks ago. If it is in Richmond, BC then I'm sure it's the one. PM me for what I observed.

I got my car from World Fine Cars and know that dealership well. I can find out if it's the same vehicle as the one they sold and who their sold it to if anyone is interested.
