I'll keep you posted. He keeps emailing back.

The sad part is, he really believes he's scored the jackpot here. He said he even laminated the window sticker and PCNA letter.

Still think its overpriced....
Is it engraved as the first production model? It is still a fairly new car with just 2k miles. It's not a demo as it is titled. Offer them $121k

I bet he is happy to have a passenger with him at times so he can take a pick of him in his car with his AP watch knock off.

I also bet he has tiny hands...

1 of 1 with Manual in US. Rarer than 911 R. From the seller's listing:



I think he's actually serious. Went through the trouble of having Porsche certify it is indeed 1/1:





Asking $449,501.

ROFLMAO

Price drop! Over $60k off! Act now!!!

The sticker packages blow me away. At work someone just got an M3 with some ugly asymmetrical stripes and somebody's signature all over it. If that made the car look better, they'd make them all like that. It looks worse, the only value proposition is the "rareness"... but to me rare is only a good thing if it's better looking or faster than the regular production examples, not uglier or slower. What if they made a 911 Carrera Honda Fit Motor Edition, only 20 examples made. Would it be super rare and expensive?

Wait...what...what does this mean only manual in US.

All these models can be had with manual? what is going on here. This looks like a "sticker+badges" only car.

The ad also has the word custom misspelled as "custome" lol

So what exactly is included in option "CJS - Endurance Racing Edition Package"?
It is just the trim or is there something that improves performance?

He means the only one of these sticker job "limited edition" cars that came to the US with manual transmission. That's all. Certainly nothing special.'

See earlier posts in this thread with how delusional this guy is. Think about it. A REAL limited edition car, the 60th Anniversary PCA Club car, trades for just under $200k (which I think is stupid money but what do I know). This is literally a badge and sticker job from Porsche, and this guy thinks he has something special.
