2010 silver 911 with red interior at victory motorsports

Based on reviews I’ve read, I’ve decided to steer clear from any car victory has sold.

Thanks!

DO NOT BUY FROM VICTORY MOTORSPORTS!! I have consulted with them off and on since 2011. Don't trust them one bit. There are multiple negative reports on them on Rennslist.

If you're interested in the car you should get your own PPI. Looking to piggy back off of someone else's to save a few dollars is a very long shot - especially in this forum. If it's for sale again already then I'd be doubly sure to get a good independent inspection. I doubt that their pricing allows for flipping so one possible explanation is the buyer (now seller) is trying to cut losses.

I looked at a former car from them being resold under those exact circumstances. Post-sale the buyer found hidden structural damage not on the carfax. Also, the service log book they showed him at purchase - that was fully stamped (impressive) - turned out later - on closer inspection to be from a different car.

Be very careful with this one.

That’s very informative. Thanks! I’ll definitely have a ppi performed.
