I wonder how much it'll take to bring this one home.

[k9handler]

around the price of a CGT possibly!

I think I saw the same one in Excellence a while back for around the $150k mark. I could be way off though.

nice mats in that one

really? Can't be.....$150K only buys you an RS these days

I would tend to think somewhere in the mid-300s, but I have no idea what the market on these cars is.

[Gary Peters]

Yup I'm way off. It was a couple of years ago though.... 31 and already my mind fails me regularly

That one's always for sale. First time I say it advertised, 5 or 6 years ago in PANO, they asked 250K for it.

It came up again last summer in Monterey.

From people who've seen it up close, it needs a LOT of work, but it's still a real R and I'd pick it up if I was in the market.

I was just reading the ad for this car and found out I know one of the guys pretty well that previously owned this car and have met the original owner but didnt know either gentleman owned this piece of Porsche history. What a cool ride.

[ScottKelly911]

whoa, cool a time machine!!!!

[Elombard]

I did not realize they were doing twin plug that far back.

[Eric Mckenna]

They were asking 350K for it last I checked about 7 months ago....

Is there such thing as an"Ugly" 911R????

[bob tilton]

why has this car not sold?

[Jgordon]

I'd rather have the 904 or the speedster on their site....

[soup dragon]

Or the jag xj220 or ford rs200
sorry guys but it just looks like an early porsche with the fuel filler in the bonnet (flak jacket at the ready!)

not, great concept, but the reality was lacking from what I understand

Yes, but what it looks like and what it is are two completely different things. That's like saying a 934 just looks like any other turbo with a fancy front valance so you wouldn't want one.

Very good question, it seems that it's been for sale for years. I've always admired it's stance and patina, but there must be some serious issues that aren't apparent in the pictures. Maybe the patina runs a little too deep.

Definatley a cool car, but I would rather have a 934 or 935.
