Nice or failed attempt at a flip? 92 slate grey targa
 
This guy nrets617 has been trying to flip this targa he bought just a few months ago for close to $20,000 profit. First of all of course he will never get that greedy asking price for a 90k mile C4 targa but nice attempt. Funny original seller noticed and bumped his thread lol

Here is his ad then the ad he bought it from

Is this some attempt to shame him for trying to make $ or the start of another this price makes me laugh thread?

Wphelps 05-10-2020 06:16 PM

Yes, kinda dumb listing on same site he bought it from

But the car was more worth $40-42 to me, I personally will not buy it because of Targa and C4.
But it’s good car at 88k miles
And to get $50,000 is what I think it’s worth by a dealer because good color, miles, etc

Marine Blue 05-10-2020 06:40 PM

It would be a great price if the car was well sorted but between the rust, the unexplained repaint and lack of maintenance history it’s a higher priced gamble. No record of having any suspension work done will easily add $3500 to the tab. No record of clutch, fuel lines, oil lines will add another $3k. Being a C4 adds other complexities and maintenance requirements which aren’t mentioned either.

More detail would help...

Rostami6 05-10-2020 07:37 PM

Did anyone else notice the mileage? Back in July of 2019 the mileage in the picture shows 89643.
Here we are 10 months later and his add states 88k miles.

stutt911 05-10-2020 09:50 PM

The funny thing is when negotiating with him a few months ago when he offered it to me, he told me it’s a $60,000 car and since I live in San Diego I can easily sell it for that there lol, delusional flipper , needs to work on his sales skills, reminds me of littleoldman and his $63,0000 120K mile C4 with no description or details of engine work but says “it’s easily worth $65,000” And “find one like it” lol

Wphelps 05-11-2020 10:25 AM

So
 
These flippers are hilarious really

The market now is so F up. Every swing dick thinks it’s still business as usual, but the virus really made a mess of a markets

Just to understand economics, it’s a yes supply and demand, but it’s now survival for the fittest, not pissing money away on a vintage car... be patient it’s coming fast..

Hold on, do not fall for the few that sell stupid and apply it to your cars.
There is a ass for every seat

stutt911 05-11-2020 01:46 PM

He deleted his ad after being outed lol. Seems like a “failed attempt” at a flip and not disclosing the rust and issues with the car. I’ll post it’s vin # later so when someone searches google they find the proper info, if you’re selling a car be honest for gods sake

kt911rs 05-11-2020 04:11 PM

Amen Stutt911!
I was the original seller of this car. I disclosed issues and was completely transparent.
Buyer told me he was a multiple 964 owner and the car would be well loved. Sold car for mid $30k. It was advertised
On PCA classifieds the next day after delivered. Their was other interested parties that contacted PCA complaining that the car suddenly turned into a one owner car and paint issues not disclosed.
Car and owner were banned from PCA classified for life.
I messaged him and said I thought that was a shi**y thing to do! Was asking mid $60’s.
I’m about capitalism, but be honest when describing what your selling. I could have sold it 10 times over to other Pelican Members that want to be an owner. PCA asked me to put up the original ad here to see if it would get a reaction. It happened to appear right above his latest post. I’m not against guys flipping cars, and thought the best thing to do was have monitor remove it.
Just be honest with people! This is supposed to be a fun hobby!

stutt911 05-11-2020 05:23 PM

What a scummy seller. Thanks k911rs for outing that pos.

Vaive 05-11-2020 05:26 PM

It'll be on BAT soon enough and sell for $70K

No it won’t, a c2 1992 with 30k miles on BAT didn’t even get as high as his asking price for this beat up 90k mile C4 with rust. And that car is now known and he will be outed wherever he tries to sell it, shady seller karma got him, he had that car listed on PCA a day after he got it with false info. I was about to fold and buy it for $45,000 if he accepted my offer, but thankfully he was too greedy then Got outed, I wouldn’t do business with that pos seller if the car was even $30,000

Hi Karen! Are you still holed up in your bunker wearing a facemask?

ryans65 05-12-2020 09:01 AM

Would someone please clarify the Karen thing, is it in fact a reference from that Dane Cook bit two decades ago?

Karen is the upper middle class, middle aged white woman who always calls the manager to complain. In the age of the 'Rona it has taken on the meaning of someone who scolds people for not staying 6 feet apart or wearing a mask and calling the police to complain about it. A petty bysybody wanna be tyrant. Think of the HOA lady who reports you because the lawn is 1/4" too high.

I love the fact that S-dopes 'how to sell like a professional' has one respondent. Guess who?

That's my new credo. Never to respond to S-dope thread.

Right. 928 owners "pontificating" about air cooled values.

Boomers trying to sound cool by referencing IG. Priceless!

Matt is one of those people who wears a mask in his car, LOL. Have you seen these people? Wearing a mask is dumb enough. Wearing a mask in your car? That's Matt level paranoia.

It’s a glitch in the bot’s programming. He keeps calling me a boomer when everyone here but him knows I’m not that old.

NYNick 05-13-2020 08:34 AM

A buddy of mine in Florida just messaged me. They randomly tested 35 guys at the golf club for antibodies. 17 tested positive. 50%. Even in NYC they only test out at 19%. This comes from a place that never took precautions, never fully closed down and never informed resort guests about positive cases.

Yeah, wearing a mask is dumb?

You understand you're wearing the masks to protect the people around you, not yourself, right? It's not a selfish act, it's a selfless act. Course, bots only care about themselves. Clearly that's your modus operandi.

He doesn’t care. The social darwinists, like him look at 1/3 of the deaths being in nursing homes and long term care and just shrug their shoulder and say they were old. They actually embrace your positive test results and say,”see, all those people didn’t even know they were sick”. It’s not an argument that will ever touch the heart of a bot.

Talk about going totally off topic posting stupid memes and having childish discussions that have nothing to do with the topic or even porsche , lol. This forum is something else...I have noticed almost every post turns into the same thing with the same 4-5 people posting this type of stuff talking to each other as if they are on yahoo chat in 1998

It's actually improved a bit. A few years ago, every thread's fourth or fifth post would have pictures of goats and the occasional bestiality joke. :)

I may have had something to do with that. I don’t report much, but homophobia and beastiality were a Bridge too far. Just ask Bernie...

It's possible. It was mostly between Ronnie's old account and some Danish guy, if I recall correctly.
