Exactly.
I don't consider any of the posters "liars" - even Mali can 'only' be accused of puffery to sell his car.
Porsche claimed that a stock '73 S would go over 160 mph IIRC. So a std. geared coupe could perhaps make 165. I don't see that happening in a short geared targa.
The main problem here is he made so many different claims that one is hard put to sort them out. The ones above he definitely made, but he made others too, and dissembled on the original claims.
So until the car is sold, or unless it is sold, I doubt we will ever know what that particular car can really do in top end speed, rpm limits on the motor or any other performance issue.
