It is located about an hour east of Philly in Vincentown, NJ. It has 75K miles and they are asking $23,900.

Just wanted to know if anyone has seen it how it looks exterior or interior wise.....

I am interested in buy a Cab like this one and just wondering if I should make the trek from Detroit.

Lastly, does anyone know if any reputable shops in the Philly area that can do a good PPI.

Thanks.........

Chris (Yes, still looking for my 1st 911. - Slim pickin her in Detroit. Either the cars are beat or folks are asking too much for what I am lookin for....)

That's a gorgeous color....you don't see too many like that in my city...

That seems like a pretty good deal on that car considering the mileage. I wonder if the color has any reason for the price? I like the color, but is it a desirable color?

I hear ya about Detroit, I use to live in New Baltimore for a few years, that whole area just amazes me about how "anti-foreign car" they are there. I had a BMW that I couldn't give away when I lived there. I sure don't miss the winters there either....

Is that Marine Blue? It's a nice looking car from the pics. If they've drooped the price to $21900 it is definately worth a roadtrip for a looksie.

I drove this car on Monday. The seller called the color amazon green.

I would say the exterior of the car is 7.5 out of 10. The reason being is the hood has a fair amount of rock chips that needs repair. Additionally, the hood has loads of lil' white dots (I think very small paint scratches (surface is still smooth) caused by may sand. ). Basically, I would think the hood needs to be painted. There were also a fair amount of scratches around the body needing touchup. I did not see any dents or dings.

The interior is also about 7.5 out of 10. A little wear on the Driver seat but no tears or holes. Seats need a good cleaning to see if a slight of discoloration can be removed.

The Wheels had a bit of Curd Rash on the rims but were in good shape otherwise.

The car drove nice and all the gears shifted smoothly.

The car had the rear seat delete option and a High end stereo (which I did not listen too).

The seller is motivated. He has a Low ball offer and he is mulling over but he is looking for something closer to his 21,900 asking price.

My questions is: Does any one know a good shop around Vincentown, NJ 08088 (about 1 hour east of Philly) to do an PPI? It would be nice if they could also act as an escrow agent to assist in the sales transaction.

Thanks....Chris
