My new car and my experience with Dallas911

Just got delivery of my 1987 carrera with a 3.8 and 993 turbo brakes etc etc etc I bought the car based from Dallas911 based on many phone calls and his describing over the phone the mods and condition....Just wanted to write this post because everyone *****es about a problem with a seller and no one gives praise....I wish everyone ive ever bought a car from took lessons from him...Car was as good or better than described...every part of the transaction was totally legit....there was one issue with the sunroof adjustment that he forgot to mention and when i asked him about it....he told me to send him the receipt and he would cover it....Dallas911 is a stand up act and id never hesitate to buy a car from him again

Yeah, it a guy who is pretty active in buying and selling around here.
Was it this car? 1987 911 993 rs 3.8 Twin Plug, Motec, turbo brakes, street, never tracked, mint

Sounds pretty sweet.

Thanks Mike

I'm a Private Collector, but buy & sell a bit because in AZ as a Private Party we don't have sales tax ( unless from dealer), I inspect & often spend good $$ to make my cars perfect or close to it. Of all the Cars I've had, Mikes was definitely a one of a kind!

That thing is fantastic, I was admiring it in the classifieds. If it could talk: "Don't mind me I'm just a good condition mostly original car, im not too fast I promise )
