Perhaps there's a second car included?

That dealer always lists cars on here with silly pricing. That is 997S money.

Ooooooof. I wish I wasn't a student and I was working.

2000 Porsche 911 Carrera

A little pricey but it seems well optioned!

Very clean, but damn that wood trim is ugly.

M.D. Holloway 12-24-2013 08:11 AM

Yes, a tip is a requirement...and I actually do like the fauex wood trim...

Jim Richards 12-24-2013 08:18 AM

but those chrome wheels...ack!

M.D. Holloway 12-24-2013 08:22 AM

I like those wheels :)

recycled sixtie 12-24-2013 08:43 AM

I don't mind those wheels or the faux wood. Looks like a nice car. If that is black it is hard to keep clean but I could live with that too. Helping other people spend money is fun. Patience is required though....

I wonder why the previous owner wanted to sell it?

Sweet ride. Everything looks good. I'd have to lose the chrome wheels, but they're not a deal breaker by any stretch.
And add legal window tint all around. NOT the limo dark stuff. It really knocks down the inside temps dramatically.

Those are quite possibly the worst car photos I've ever seen. It looks like a $5.00 plastic model photographed on a coffee table with an ancient camera phone. :eek:

As for the chromed, (ruined), wheels and the wood treatment, there is an old saying in the used car business:

"There's an ass for every seat..."

Throw some curb whiskers and pinstripes on that bad boy and you're done! :)

Jim Richards 12-24-2013 09:54 AM

big whitewall tires.

speeder 12-24-2013 09:58 AM

Yep!

If you want sympathy around here you have to have a toothache, a herniated disc or a root canal. Whitewall tires, faux wood etc will score you derision. I must say this is a fun thread. At least you don't have this P car for Xmas. You have all of 2014 to keep looking.....take your time. Hopefully the critical comments will reduce until you find the perfect one.:)

Looks like a nice turbo got hit by a Chrysler mini-van....

Nice car that seems fairly priced. He also has the GT3 sport seats which are very desirable, he should list that in his ad.
