I am a union technician and am going on to a long-term construction project up in central Washington state desert territory. I cannot drive a nice Porsche onto the dusty/dirty job site for obvious reasons.
I purchased this car with 29,000 miles from a Bankruptcy in south Florida. The car is perfect with no known issues.
The paint is perfect, with one rock chip that was professionally touched up. Interior is a 10. Visors are tight with no waves. Antenna works great. Windshield washer works perfectly, etc. Original floormats look brand new. Seats are perfect front and back. Original Fuchs in perfect shape.
Dash is perfect with no cracks whatsoever. Radio has been updated to new CD/radio unit.
I am a stickler, so when I got the car I replaced:
- Both belts and complete FOE service (had been previously done at 28,000 miles five yrs ago).
- Front crank seal (old one taken out looked perfect)
- Water pump
- Radiator
- Upgraded 3-blade fans to later 6-blade fans
- Lower temp T-stat and fan switch
- New coolant cap (& coolant w/ Water Wetter)
- Turbo tie rods
- Tires
- Front stone guard decals
- Four wheel alignment
- Car came with "high-dollar" rebuilt DME unit.
This car has manual steering. Underneath looks like it has not been driven much in the rain. Zero leaks - not one drop on garage floor in five months.
I would get in and drive this car to Alaska tonight without a worry.
What do you think I can get in this market? Any comments would be greatly appreciated.
