Hey guys, I'm thinking about buying this Porsche on ebay. Would anyone that lives near Apollo Beach, FL mind checking out the car for me? I'd be willing to paypal you $50 for your time. Thank you

never seen it at a Florida track. I would go check it out but Apollo Beach is a good way outside of "Tampa"

good luck

Looks like a good deal if you like the interior. Seller notes it did have the front fender replaced after a collision in 2003.

 

Looks like a great deal to me. I think that int is schweeet...........plus the warrantee til 2012....

 

Some warranties are good some are usless and do not pay out anything.
The interior is "challenging to like" with that awful steering wheel, et.
Car is a bit patched together with no real goodies to speak of.

Good luck regardless, lots of em out there

 

Haven't seen that one, looks nice though. If the guy wants to come down to Sarasota we can look at the car, and do a used car inspection. It looks well optioned too, it appears to be a clean mix of factory/aftermarket.

That's Natural Brown leather, that's a rare color and part of the full leather package. Not bad looking, and a nice break from the normal black and grey interiors. Challenging?? The one below is challenging:




But as they say, to each his own.

 

that interior made me sick to my stomach!!! LOL

 

Seems like a pretty good deal. Blue on natural brown is a nice combo. Anyone know if that car is Lapis or Midnight blue? Still trying to figure out my blues on these cars.

 

thanks for the help guys, i actually love the tan interior...reminds me of the modena interiors in the e36 m3s. if anyone can check out the car for me please let me know, suncoastric, i will ask the seller if he's willing to take the car to your shop.

 

My friend look at that car last year.It had a small oil leak and a few other small things that needed to be fix.The owner said it would be taken care of before the sell.It needs four new tires.He did not have any paper work to prove that it was a real gt2 bumper.It's a nice car but the carfax was the deal breaker.Hope that helps.

 

According to the VIN, it's Lapis Blue. I don't think I could tell the difference between Lapis Blue and Midnight Blue, it must be a subtle difference.

If you need a full inspection, contact our service department at 941-923-1700, and speak with Herb in Service. I'm not sure what they might charge for it, but they can do a thorough inspection. If you need more info, please PM me.

 

With the market for Porsches the way it is, I would continue to look around for a better deal. If there are any issues, I would pass. my 2 cents.

 

thanks guys, i think i will pass on the car for now...will wait for a better deal hopefully locally and in better condition.

 

i don't that interior color combo very much. but that is just me.

 

That leather was a significant cost upgrade- as I reacll you could get charcoal or natural tan in the upgraded leather, all other colors were the standard leather.

I could live with it.

I actually drove one with special order carpeting in black, (doors and floor) and no wood- very sharp looking- less monochromatic.

But that Nephrite Green just takes the cake...you look at it and thing it was a horrible photographic error- all cyan- but it isn't.
