I noticed the same thing! I wouldnt buy a ebay car unless I could see it myself. You'd have to be nuts!

Guys, I think he meant to type "NO RESERVE", not "NO REVERSE".

Too bad because it's going to kill his chances of getting a good price on that. He needs to kill that auction and relist.

I believe he meant to say "no reserve".

Looks like a nice car though...I like the price on an '87. Seems that they have dipped again. There is another '87 in San Diego that is going for $13,500.

I agree he probably intended to type "No reserve" but come one, this is too funny.

If a seller can't spell and doesn't check for mistakes it makes me wonder how they really treated the car.

I didn't even get it...that it was an error. I figured, Okay, take it and have the tranny done, and it's still a GREAT DEAL.
Man!

Dang, that's cheap. Probably did mean no reserve, after all it is a "no reserve" auction, but then the genius states his "reserve" of $13,500. Also I've never heard of reverse taking a powder on a 911 before the other gears, but years ago at dealer we had a customer who got p'd off and floored his 930 in reverse; turbo kicked-in and blew tranny into hundreds of small, expensive parts.

OK, so now this guy is a bit pissed off. It appears as though he has been swamped with emails about the word "reverse" when it should have been "reserve".

"Enough already, I've gotten at least 50 emails telling me"

Oops. Better proofread from now on...
