High mileage RSA on ebay

Porsche 911 RS America | eBay

Really nice looking car. How much you think it really worth to buy?

There is a dark blue RSA for sale over on Rennlist with only 55k miles asking $85k. Using that as a good data point for pricing, I'd guess $50k for this one.

With 215K miles and no receipts for the rebuild and leak downs and compression as they are, I'd say it's risky to assume it won't need another rebuild in the not too distant future. I'm sure it was done, but it could have been done 100K miles ago. I do love this car in white and no sunroof. If it truly pulled hard and made it past a PPI of my design, I would be prepared to pay $60K for this car and take the risk on the rebuild.

I miss my white no sunroof RSA all the time. Such a classic, low production car which oodles of class. I'm going to be in the bay area on Sept 5th, so I may take a peak if it's still available.

Another note is the underhood sticker is just too clean. It looks like it was mounted too high and that it may have been copied over from the maintenance book and glued into place. Just my opinion...

Good eyes. I am a big fan of non sunroof cars. Let me know how it looks in person please.

Listing has ended and I thought it had a couple of days left so maybe it sold. These sure are awesome in white! If Sold, congrats to the new owner!

This car made the rounds on the internet from the previous private seller this past spring. He had it on just about every site in the US for $80 including this one. It didn't sell for a long long time. I guess the current dealer scooped it up and is trying to make a little money. The current seller painted the wheels back to silver, they were black this past spring.

The car looks good, but as others have said, it may be time for another rebuild and I am sure there are all kinds of little things that just need to be replaced due to time and miles.

would be a great car for 50k and spend 25k make it perfect.
I won't bother to offer someone 50k for asking price $80k though, it would just be insulting....

No point in insulting the owner. Either he gets a clue when he gets no offers or he lists it for sale until the one guy who thinks his ask is fair buys the car.
