Is that price in USD? Looks pretty sweet to me. Would have to look at the maintenance records and inspect the car but it looks clean and well kept.

[Poorscheboy]

It would be CDN moneys. It does look good, hard to find in these parts.

Look very decent for a 92 & asking price is about rigth for up here.This is a true CDN model & you should have heated seats as an option.Now on very high mileage car like this you want to make sure you can get all the maintenance records possible,first TB/BSB/Rollers & WP being done in the last 10-15K miles or so.Same for the clutch,very very important on a DOC 16 V are the pads/tensioner & chain which should have been change within the last 50K miles or so.Also ask him if he had any previous issues with the pinion gear.You will need a PPI from a shop or mechanic that knows 968 like the back of his hand,no PPI no money on it it's that simple.Take your time doing all the research about the maitenance mention & get back to us.GL

Did you look at it?

[Poorscheboy]

Not yet, it's about an eight hour drive there and back. I'm just keeping an eye on it for now.

First I look for on a 968 for sale online is the bat wing. This one is missing.
They are hard to keep intact. Just another expense. Seems clean for a car in a northern climate.

Look at the pass side of the hood, could just be a bumper adjustment.
Fitment of the headlight to bumper on pass. side, compare it to the drivers side.

What is that funky wire wrapped around #1 plug lead?

[Shifter]

Unless I miss my guess, that isn't a 92 hood, either. The hood crest is recessed on hoods of 92 only.

And what the heck is that green wire?

That is a signal wire for day time running lights.
