If you can't have a proper PPI or at least have the opportunity to look the car over prior to the auction ending I wouldn't consider buying a 964 or any car in fact on BaT. Not all sellers on BaT are unscrupulous but they have had their share and I have seen some people buy emotionally get screwed. IMO the sellers made out far better than the buyers in most cases.
Also people put too much merit into carfax which is a tool that doesn't always tell the whole story.
There is a beautiful coral red turbo on BaT now. If it is to sell for a premium it should be original paint. The seller shows meter readings done by a reputable shop but the shop only mentions the rear bumper being painted. With readings well into 16 Mils and more the car has clearly been repainted. Some say why should it matter on a 30 year old car. In some ways if done properly it shouldn't matter too much but the ?? is why was it painted with such low miles and was it done to fix damage or just tired paint and was it done properly. Some of those readings are either from a very heavy hand or bondo.
