There's a bid now. One day into the auction.

One bid at $75K, but it doesn't matter because there's a reserve.

I have a feeling this auction won't hit the reserve unless it passes over $100K. We'll see.

And they have no intention of buying it. Just stroking their ego.
A 1997 993 Cab was listed and sold on Rennlist on 9-11-15. The car was in excellent condition, with comparable equipment and sold for $64,500. It had 39,900 miles. The car in question here has significantly less miles (10,000) with an asking price nearly double the selling price of other cab. As for the blue turquoise color it is obviously a very unique color that in my opinion has limited appeal. And yes, I was interested in the car but decided against it because of price and color.

Was it Blue Turquoise? Did it have hardback sport seats? And there's a huge premium between 40K miles and 9,400 miles. Not comparable in my mind. Not even close.

BTW, there's an RL member already on record with a $100K offer for this car.

Default Turquoise Metallic
That's what I was thinking, Turquoise Metallic, I also had that color in a coupe, never knew why Porsche put the word Turquoise in both, not even close in color.

He may be a Rennlist rookie, but this dude's got more moves, and the same ethics, as a $5 hooker!

You go girl!

Always important to know as much about the seller as the car.
HAHA!!^^

But Turquoise Metallic is a beautiful color though

Its amazing how time flies when you're having fun. Keeping the car for 2-3 years. Maybe meant to say 2-3 weeks.
And to go thru the hassle of adding another Rennlist account just so no one will notice.

Asking price of $119,990. eBay auction closed at $82,000. My prediction was $75,000 and I was told I was an amateur appraiser stroking my ego. The plain fact, unless you happen to own a cab in one of these "look at me colors", is most cabs bring less money and these unique colors may "rock" but appeal to substantially fewer buyers.

Even $100K is silly for this car.

Seller should be happy to take the eBay $82K and run with it.
