The seller has a sales strategy here, he spells it out in the first line. He doesn't want to sell to a flipper, which translates to, there is no money left to be made on this car and I'm not wholesaling it. I can appreciate that. My cars are usually priced the same, no leftover money, or "meat on the bone" as the flippers always say to me.
Whether or not it's worth his asking price, that's up for debate. If it hasn't sold already then it's probably over-priced, but if he's not in a hurry then let it run. To answer the original question, is this car a deal? No, but it might be a good project for someone and could end up being a really cool car, so paying all the money now isn't the end of the world. Everyone is obsessed with getting the deal of the century when they are buying a car, I gladly pay full retail when I'm buying a car for myself if I think it's a good car. You never pay too much, you just bought it too early, hold any Porsche for 5 years and you'll be ahead of the game.
