Most over priced 944 ever ?

[nota]

"MIAMI VICE" PORCHE 944

not mine

I just saw ths ad
and thought I would post it for the forums amusement
19 k for a car used on miami vice tv show

[Eric 951]

I am a big 944 AND Miami Vice fan and think this guy is nuts....

[Brozoar]

Hm I honestly cannot answer that question. I don't know what celeb cars usually go for, but at first glance, yeahhh pretty overpriced. Its usage in a show whose title is meaningless to current generations only affords it so much mark-up.

Also, "This is not a turbo which is a good thing as this year the turbo was
nothing but trouble." The car in question was a 1984. Porsche Fail.

LOL ridiculous.

I noticed that year problem too.

On another note, does anybody know how often this car was used in the show? I have searched many times for it and never found an episode where it was shown even a little bit.

He spray painted the hole engine bay black along with the airbox and MAF witch looks to me like the cover is missing on it. Or the picture is just bad.

[GorillaFoot]

All I have to say is... WOW. Wow.

I guess some people are still fanatical about Miami Vice... It was a fine show for the 80's. I still remember that girl's butt in the intro. Remember? Yellow bikini with red dots. Mm. That butt is burnt into the back of my brain.

That cover is definitely AWOL. How much would anyone actually spend for this?

[Dane Brown]

124k miles is not that low, the most I would pay for that is maybe 4k there is one on Craigslist that is way nicer then that one it has a rebuilt motor that is going for 3000. These new only ran like 18,500 am I right? And what dose AWOL mean? Sorry I should probably know this.

[Dane Brown]

Tell me you wouldn't rather have this one... http://seattle.craigslist.org/oly/cto/3163701889.html

Or this one which was for sale on RL,engine bay may not be to everybody taste but at least it look clean & well done :

[Gawernator]

AWOL= absent without leave. Missing.

[Dantilla]

Or he will trade for another $19,000 sports car.

Maybe I'll ask my friend if he wants to trade his $19,000 Fiero for a $19,000 Porsche.

[Dane Brown]

That's actually pretty cool what they did with the airbox. I like it.

[mikepellegrini]

I'd go for it in a minute - but only if he'd throw in a week with Don Johnson's ex-wife - Melanie Griffith. God, I been in love with her since she seduced Paul Newman in Harper... Little vixen.

Pictures & Photos of Melanie Griffith - IMDb

Yeah, I know she's married to Antonio Banderas right now, so it might be somewhat difficult to negotiate. But hey - you never ask, you never'll know one way or the other!

That'd be like $18,000 for a week with Melanie and $1,000 for the car - that's fair!

Hey Tonio! ¿Cómo está usted? Podemos hablar por unos minutos? Tengo una cuestión de honor que me gustaría hablar ...

God! Brilliant!!! That's a wonderful idea: punching holes in your air box so it can suck hot engine air! Probably worth 2-5 HP reduction at least!

God, I'm gonna do that to mine right now...

[kfanazini]

Me too, but I shudder to think what it may look like now.....

That posting is just plain sad. It reminds me of the Jon Voight episode on Seinfeld.

........And I have the jacket too!

idiot.

[ibtisam.jawad]

I saw one listed for $17k!!!! That too an 84 NA.

[petrolhead611]

I'm sure i said $9700 in the ad, probably price reduced because the jacket is no longer included.
