Clearly he has not seen the latest Excellence values...



And speaking of that, how in the hell can 944 S2 values be climbing and 968 values be plummeting?



There are just too few 968 sales each year to make any of these numbers anything but guesses.

oh my, "Toyo" tires!!! e-gads, this chap really brings the bling to maintenance items.



I wonder how this car qualifies as the "finest available," when I scan my garage queens!

According to him:



Finest Available, 100% stock, never seen rain, never raced. Flawless.



New Z-rated Toyo Tires. LSD option, all service records, and keys. Mobil 1 Always.



The BEST there is.



THE FINAL TRIPLE BLACK SIX-SPEED EVER PRODUCED in 1995



The last sentence says it all.

"THE FINAL TRIPLE BLACK SIX-SPEED EVER PRODUCED in 1995"



The seller contacted me a few months ago for information on his car. I sent him a copy of the cab registry. I don't have all of the cabs registered but the funny thing is that there is another triple black 6 speed 968 cab produced after his????

'fraid not. I've email to/from, and the asking price is real, although he is now down to $35,000-37,500. Guess that means I am allowed to offer either amount. <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/smile.gif" class="smilie" alt="" />



His plan is to sell it now for the above price or "wait a year and get $42,000."



BTW the odom is 61.392. Not exactly low for a garage queen.
