Porsche Boat - ebay - scam?
Saw this on ebay. Only $275,000 starting. Feedback sucks.
Cool looking boat, tho... With all the misspellings, lack of info, it almost sounds like the boat is in Nigeria... Item 160179485230 Last edited by tcar; 11-16-2007 at 08:02 AM.. |

You'd think for $550,000, they'd give you a windscreen or something.

The boat pictured on eBay is the Kineo, designed by Porsche Design at Zell am See, and powered by a 928 engine. Built in 1985, only 3 are known to exist. One is here: http://porschekineo.com/
Currently, Rinspeed owns the rights to the Kineo design. More in my price range:

That kind of boat help guarantee "cratch-slapping". No windscreen needed.

VERY cool looking boat... but whoever buys it is paying a lot for exclusivity.
If I was going to drop that kind of coin on a speed boat I would go for a Reggie Fountain... maybe not as nice looking but it would kick that boats butt big time.

I saw in European Car Magazine where Porsche is building another boat.
