Could make a decent living this way!

If this car checks out, the new owner could probably flip it for $7-$8k. Highly motivated seller I would say.

Man, that is pretty cheap for a (fairly) low mileage `88!

I was thinking the same thing about this car:

Then I noticed the mileage! It is obvious that the car needs a little TLC, but the `89 (first 5-speed) Turbo's are one of the most desireable 930's right? So, is $20k a good deal even with those high miles (assuming the car checks out OK)? Thoughts? Opinions?

Looking at bid prices on other SC's and Carerras, this may just be where the market is right now - if ebay is any indicator of current value. Still, if the car is as good as the pics, someone got a deal.

180k on a turbo? That must be some kind of record. I'd be really worried about all the $$$$ things that were about to go wrong. Even $20 wouldn't tempt me (too much)

The Turbo engine is not a super-tough rebuild though. At 180K you'd probably need new P&Cs - not cheap...
