For sale: 32,000 mile, red/black S4, AT, concours cond!

low miler · 05:39 AM

The current owner of one of my 928's I sold nearly a year ago, or less, has contacted me, asking if I knew of anyone that might be interested in his car.

I sold it to him with 28,000 miles, and it now has 32,000. The car has never had any paintwork and is nothing short of concours condition. It would easily win any local or regional event, hands down!

Completely original, but the current owner has added brand new Cup 2's with brand new Toyo's. As you can see from the pictures, I sold the car with it's original platinum anodized wheels and brand new Michelin Pilots. I would assume he still has those as well.

Newer timing belt/water pump service, motor mounts, and an excessively overserviced history come complete with this car. There are absolutely NO issues whatsoever with this car and there are no markings, chips, scratches etc. It's 100% complete including all tools, spare tire, spare tire compressor, extra belts, cargo cover, cargo net, both the owners and maintenance manuals, both belly pans, original stereo, etc. It was a one owner car when I purchased it in Naples, FL last year. It's truly in unbelieveable condition!

I had lost all of the original pictures since I bought my new computer, but remembered Chuck Z still had it listed in his for sale section with a SOLD below it. The ad is taken from my old Ebay auction in which the current owner bought it from. He simply wants back what he paid for it, and just a fraction of what he put into it, so he's asking just $24,900. He did put $3500 into extra's, plus new OEM motor mounts, new OEM plug wires and a few other items, but he's willing to let most of that go and just get most of his original investment back.

I HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO INTEREST IN THE SALE OF THIS CAR! However, it is one of the very best examples of a 1987 that I have ever owned.

Here's the car:

You can contact me if your interested and I'll just forward your info to the current owner and then you can just take it from there. It's a once in a lifetimer!

How much would your normal finders fee be?

Usually $1000, but nothing on this one. I think the current owner might give me a little something for the effort, but that's entirely up to him. If your genuinely interested in the car, I can get you in touch with him personally. Just e-mail me at my personal e-mail address, partysover@sbcglobal.net. Thanks!

Normally yes, but this particular owner is a very private individual, and doesn't want his contact info just thrown out there for anyone and everyone. He'd kind of like me to feel any interested parties out first to see if they're truly interested. Basically, no tire kickers please!

I don't know. It's kinda starting to sound like a shady used car salesman deal to me.

The "negative" 928 website is called Rennlist. These types of comment's are better suited for that environment. Please refer to www.Rennlist.org for this type of thing. I think it will better suit your taste.

P.S. We here at Pelican like to treat each other like real human beings, and try not to belittle or berate fellow 928 enthusiasts.

Absolutely! But I am just a little curious as to how you've come up with the terms "shady" and "used car salesman"? Those types of comments would generally be met with a sense of negativity, and are usually reserved for when the original poster has actually known or dealt with the intended recipient. And since I'm absolutely sure we've never met, your "opinion" should therefore be more construed as an assumption or fordrawn conclusion.

It would be almost like you were basing the comments on predrawn assumptions based on, perhaps, people who don't know me at all. Like I stated earlier, since you don't actually know me, then I would have to take your "shady" comment as a personal attack of my character. And as I stated earlier, this type of thinking and attitude fit very, very well into the negatavism of the Rennlist.org 928 forum. Assumptions, personal character attacks without reference, and general evil run wild on that site. I beg you to please give them a shot. I can't help but think you'll become a highly valued member of that site.

Wishing you the best, Todd Johnson

I'm not sure what all that means. Sounds like a bunch of double talk to me. I hate to sound naive, but are you trying to insult me?

No response...............

all the best, Todd Johnson (proud Pelican!)

Charley B · 07-04-2007, 07:30 PM

I think I'm getting the picture here. First you post a very detailed 'for sale' ad. Then you say you have no interest in the sale of the car. Then when queried you admit the seller might be paying you. Then when asked about contact info for the seller you say all inquiries must go thru you, and respond to questions with a bunch of strange double talk.
I've seen your type before. I think I'll just let you play your scam on someone else.

Okay, I'm getting the picture myself now. I was just informed by several other good Pelicans that your a heavy duty Rennlister! Well, that explains ABSOLUTELY everything! Everything you just said above is such a typical instigating Rennlister type of comment. Just reading it turns my stomach and reminds me of those days when I was actually a member of that negative filled site of haters.

I don't have to explain myself, but I will just for ****'s and giggles. I originally posted the car for sale early on as a favor to the seller when he asked me too. I sold the car to him nearly a year ago, so he knew that one, I could sell it again, and two, had a very good reputation selling 928's as based on my actual feedback numbers on Ebay, rather than just based on Rennlist members conjecture, hatred and envious theories. It's absolutely flawless and in concours condition. Something you'll never know anything about, Charley! Later, can you read that, LATER, the seller said he might give me a little something for my troubles. He's a very private individual that doesn't want to be bothered with people that can't afford his car like you. You Rennlisters have such a way of twisting and turning every little thing into the worst case scenerio there could possibly be! You guys are truly amazing!

Anyway, is my listing my old 928, of which I not only knew very, very well, but had already sold before, such a crime? Is that a problem? If he gives me something for doing all the work, is that the worst thing in the world that needs to be called out to everyone on Pelican as the possible apocalypse? Does that qualify me as shady? If so, why? Listen Charley B (I noticed this is your 5th or 6th post on Pelican), we don't like your jealous types from Rennlist around here, and I think I speak for quite a few Pelican members when I say that.

Now, if you want the "real" feedback from former buyers of my 928's, in case you don't understand what "real" feedback is Charley, I'll explain it for you. Real feedback comes from actual paying customers of which have actually met me in person, talked to me personally, have looked at, driven and then eventually purchased my cars. These are, unfortunately for you, actual paying customers, and not just conjecturists or assumptionists. To see my actual, real feedback, from real people that have actually spent money to buy my 928's, one simply can check out my Ebay feedback profile, which is under the total 928 enthusiast's username, *928gts*. Make sure you include the asterisks on each end. Well what do you know, it's 100% perfect with over 93 total sales, and some pretty damn good lookin', extremely rare 928's there, ole Charley B! I'm done with you small time Rennlisters, and so is everyone else. Rennlist will eventually meet it's own demise out of sheer evil. good always triumphs over evil, and Pelican isn't just a good site, it's a GREAT site! We're done with you, Mr. Charley B!

I can post as many great deals as I want too on here and there's absolutely NOTHING your little jealous ass can do about it! Take your little purse and panties on back to Rennlist and tell all my other jealous haters to quit following me over here. Your all the same. 3-4 posts from a brand new member in one of my threads everytime. And always from rennlist. You guys are the most angry, jealous, hateful, negative group of so called enthusiasts I've ever seen. Being kicked off of that sickening site called Rennlist was the very best thing that's ever happened to me in the laast year, well, that and making roughly $50K selling 928's that you could never afford.

My customers have never had one compliant about me or my 928's I've sold them. And that numbers around 50-60 different 928's now. But ironically, the only criticism I get about selling these cars is from jealous rennlisters who can't afford my cars and simply are envious of what I do. Now, tdelarm is the worst. In fact, I think he was actually hitting on me, but that's another story!

Charley B, you've made 5 or 6 posts now, all in my thread. Do the math bro. You followed me over here, just like all the other haters, and you got called out on it. Now, while you still have some pride left, take your purse, panties, and whinning little attitude back where it belongs...............on Rennlist!

Bye, bye. Sorry you can't be me, but there's only room for one.

CharlyB what don't you get about this?

Todd sold some guy a car and now a few years later the guy asks Todd to help him sell it so he doesn't have to deal with tire kickers and looky lou's. Todd and the guy apparently have no formal arrangement, just a courtesy to a former customer, who may or may not decide give something to Todd in return.

As far as I can tell your just trying to be insulting, and failing to make something of nothing.

Thank you danglerb!

It's not like it's really that hard to understand, but as your well aware, those Rennlisters have an uncanny ability to turn even the most sincerest of offers into the most awful scenerio imaginable! And your correct, I explained absolutely every single bit of what was going on throughout the thread. I even said that the seller later informed me that he may give me something if I do indeed end up selling the car for him. God forbid he gives me an Outback Steakhouse gift certificate for helping him sell his car! I mean, is that really a crime or something? Well, as we all know, on Rennlist it certainly is. At least here on Pelican, it's actually appreciated. You people are real, something of which is an extreme rarity on Rennlist.......

And also thank you for recognizing the fact that alot of them specifically follow me over here to Pelican to simply continue their uneeded bashing. I apologize to all Pelicans for some of the cancer I apparentely brought with me from Rennlist. I can promise you that it's benign and will soon be surgically removed!

Todd Johnson

P.S. And yes, I will continue to post free, great deals on 928's when I come across them. And yes, if I'm benefiting from the sale at all, I will inform you of that as well. And if it's actually one of my own 928's for sale, one, I will inform you of that, and two, your damn straight I hope to profit from the sale! Any businessman that sells to break even is a fool!

todd,

Just hit ignore and they will go away. You don't have to explain yourself. If it gets bad, we'll just report to the moderator and they go away.

People with 7 post who have absolutely nothing to add are trolls. Better to ignore them.
