I don't know why, but the interior on this car...

...makes my eyes hurt.

I mean, it's kinda cool, and you wouldn't see it while you were driving, but woof.

Anyone else think the ask is a touch high? Not "put down the pipe" high, but "hmmm, there's a nice starting number to work with" high?

I'm a big fan of the interior. Dr Bill Jackson used to have a 928 with that interior. So freaking 80's flamboyant. But then I was the high school kid who wore pink polos and loved Miami Vice and LA Law. Old habits die hard.

Gotta start somewhere. It's a really nice car and it includes 3 big binders of records. No stories.

I like it. Pop in a CD of Pink Floyd's "shine on you crazy diamond" and I would be in heaven!

I like it also, just not on blotter.

Huge fan of that interior. A year ago a red SC with that interior went for a song in the for sale section with broken studs for around $8K. I wish I bought that car. I really like that interior - 928s look great with them as well.

If you stare at it long enough you will start a long strange trip

Awesome! I'm not a fan of white cars generally, but it totally works with the op-art interior. Given rebuilt engine, trans, suspension, A/C and full documentation, I think the ask is very much in the ballpark. Where do you suppose Sloan/Holt/Mohr/Truspeed or other high-end dealers would price it? My guess is closer to $40k than to $30k. All right, putting the pipe away now!

Usually pics make a car look nicer than it is in person. In this case, the car is much nicer in person. I have limited photography talent.

Hate the interior. And lose the "turbo" badge. It screams poser.

But the price looks pretty legit. It is about all the money for an SC that doesn't have museum level mileage, but -- if as described -- you are getting what you pay for in this car.

But you gotta dig the seats.

ROW=Non-US market car.

Yes I agree about the Turbo badge. I hate it but it was on the car when I bought it. I've been trying to find a non-spoiler engine lid but haven't had much luck.

I guess it is cool in DogTown RVA? But then again who knows where that is?

By the way I love the interior.
