Honestly that should be your next car BIC.

The Producer 07-25-2020 05:21 PM

partly de luxed lux. About the same miles that I bought mine with. The green is fantastic, and if you like weird interior colours - modena is up there.

That's a good buy, and the reality is that's a pretty good price too. like 11k US? that's cheap these days.

Here's our buddies car in BG - it's fantastic cleaned up.

:fuckyea:
Sweet fuck I love that car. It used to be street parked often in kits with a silver 930 (or m491 911) behind it.
I believe the owner has a cgt and reventon as well.

@tofu that’s actually a great price especially for manual. A few years ago they dipped under 100k but have been going way up in recent years. I’m partial to the 612 but those have doubled in price before they dropped low enough that I could afford

Digitalis 07-26-2020 12:49 PM

bcrdukes 07-26-2020 12:56 PM

To be fair, would you rather it be six figures worth of mods, or six figures worth of repairs? :p

JDMDreams 07-26-2020 03:26 PM

I mean for the price it sounds not bad, but then it's just a pain in the ass whenever I see cars where they say you have to run xxx type of gas.

underscore 07-26-2020 04:10 PM

I find it annoying enough just having to run 94, it eliminates so many back roads and road trips I'd like to do.

dark0821 07-26-2020 04:11 PM

^ and I am not knocking the seller at all....

But every time I see a car is "built" and sell within 10,000 KM... or been kept in storage for a few seasons... that is a red flag to me, unless you know the owner personally or understand the platform and the mods extensively... (but I assume a build like this = alot of one off fabrication by the owner or shop who pieces the whole thing together

(its super prevalent in the EVOX market... Fully rebuild with a loooooooong list of quality parts... should be good for 500hp from the hardware standpoint.... sellers goes on saying, I tuned it conservatively at 400hp because I wanted to be a reliable DD, but I found out I don't use it much, so now I am putting this on the market)

I understand life circumstances change, but no one... no one puts thousands and thousands of parts on a car over a course of a 3 month build... just so they dont use it for the next 2 years to sell it

JDMDreams 07-26-2020 04:25 PM

^^ I can understand stand this. I've owned a few cars that are so modded that they just become garage queens. Thief magnet and uncomfortable to dd. Especially with the vi going on now I definitely have cars that I don't drive into Vancouver that I normally previously would have.

trollface 07-26-2020 05:24 PM

1982 Porsche 930 slantnose turbo ,white - $58000

1982 Porsche 930 Turbo, white in color. Needs some work but all the mechanicals are done, Rebuilt engine. Needs complete interior. Could use a repaint or drive it as it is. Prices on Bringatrailer are about 70-100usd all day long. Build it or drive it as is...great investment either way. Firm $58000, please don’t contact me unless you have available funds. Not desperate to sell. Parked in a lock up storage. 80k miles. 6047670227

trollface 07-26-2020 06:01 PM

-Prices on BAT 70-100k usd all day long. So he asks for 58k Cnd.

RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHT

The Producer 07-26-2020 06:19 PM

it's a cool hot rod. coke-mobile

I don't know enough about 930's to know what that motor is worth. Could be a deal here, but prob not.

the factory steel cars were ignored for years by collectors but have recently shot up (this one is not that)

I wonder what wheels those are? again, could be italian garbage or could be something else entirely.

A buddy of mine's has a BRZ. I was told that running 94 is a way to prevent the fuel pump from chirping (or something to that effect). I would have to draw the line at 91, just for the sake of convenience.
