Maybe someone in Oklahoma should answer - that's where the 2 previous owners were from. The wheels would be enough to turn me away from it.

I bought my car from Momentum sight unseen and the car was in pretty good shape. They are pretty high priced but thats because teh cars are clean. Who are you working with there? I bought mine from Jennifer Sullivan.

Those wheels are worth at least a $5K discount.

I know what they own the car for if you are interested and they own it for waaaay to much. Hint halfway between 82-84. Those wheels are well no comment if you don't mind my saying so.

The wheels would put me off too. But still, each to their own.

Wheels are a good attempt to to unique.. but the spoke design just killed the whole look of it.... I agree with the price.. too high when it is modified to please very small % of the shopper. BUt that's my opinion.

Not a fan of the wheels either. Car looks pretty nice, I am wary of dealing with Momentum though. Before I bought my 2008 Turbo from Boardwalk in Dallas I contacted them about a car they had for sale. I told them what I was willing to pay, and they said no. I told them I wasn't interested, yet they literally called me back 5 times (including Saturday morning at 8am while I was asleep) bugging me about buying their car. I wasn't too much of a fan after that.

Call Dave at Bob Moore Porsche. I'm sure he sold it and will give you the history. His number is 405-748-8000.

I'm not "working" with anyone at the dealership - saw their inventory on line (as they're somewhat "local" to me)

the attraction for me is the White on Cocoa but would rather find a Tip'd car (bad knees)

so I'm guessing you've seen the carfax on this, if so where did you find it ?

actually I like the look of the wheels - to each his own..

I have been looking at 07 turbos for a while and if I'm not mistaken,this car was listed on cars.com a while back as located in Oklahoma (same color, location, wheels ect.). If it is the same vehicle, it has (had) the Evoms 650 kit installed on it.

Carfax was available from the ad in the link you provided. Click the Carfax button just to the left of the mpg info.
