My RS replica in the day, weighed a couple hundred pounds less than his car (~2150) and had a stout 2.7 RS spec MFI motor making ~235-240 hp. It could only do about 150-155 mph....

Seems farfetched...
So I say BS too.
0-60 was low 5's, so maybe I could smoke a 930 until it got rolling?
Stock 2.4S will never get to 165; I don't care how good that stuff you're smokin' is!

I agree, sometimes the verbage in these eBay ads is their worst enemy.
The type of people that would be impressed by or even believe these outlandish claims would never buy.
And the potential educated buyers, are put off or at least put on guard by this type of wordplay.
