I have a feeling this is a craigslist scam

But I do like that rear end on it...

Smile Diesel 911 resale value

The reason it's so cheap is it's a 1999 diesel 911. It states it needs an engine and have you EVER seen a diesel 911 engine for sale. They will be hard to find a good one and hard to have the owner give it up. They only made 2 and Ferdie Porsche has the other one, so it might be a good investment if you could get the diesel engine.

no scam. That is actually a little high for an auto with a blown engine. $20k for a new crate engine. If it is "blown" due to a cracked head it's probably fixable. Like the old 914 2.0l when they cracked between the intake & exhaust valve seats. If it is IMSB than probably not fixable.

Those 993/996 diesel hybrids are notorious for breaking down.
