I'm in the process of selling my Black C6 and I'll never buy black again. I'm pretty fixed on buying white with a manual trans, thanks.

Thanks NBoost, I emailed the seller. The seller did a pretty poor job with the listing which makes it hard to buy a car in NY when I live in NorCal... we'll see what he responds with.

I just bought my wife a car off ebay and had it shipped from Florida to NorCal with no issues. I talked to the guy a bunch over the course of a week and decided that I trusted him.

FWIW I'd feel pretty good about a 1 owner 8yr old car with 7k miles assuming a PPI checks out. Good luck with your search, that's half the fun imo.

That's true, a one owner car is pretty rare for that year. He was just so lazy with the pictures inside and out, using some new and old ones.

Don't the exhaust tips look like they're sticking out too far too???

NBOOST - What transportation company did you go with? I'd prefer a enclosed trailer style and not have the car loaded and unloaded a bunch of times on the way to SF. If you don't mind sharing, what was the cost?

$1450 enclosed, I used whoever ebay recommended, UShip maybe? It took them 3 weeks to line up enclosed transport because they normally only operate with open carriers. The guy I got was great but it is luck of the draw using them. It worked out fine for her car, '11 E class wagon but I would never use them for a Porsche.

You want a lift gate specialty carrier, I'd use Intercity or
Reliable. They're the ones whose fleets you see all lined up at Pebble Beach. Intercity offers discounts to 6-speeder members.

As far as that exhaust goes, yeah, the tips might be slightly long of tooth. I asked the owner of the white car about the accident. I'll pm you his reply. FYI I'm in the market too but we are moving in July so I've decided to postpone till then. I don't want to have to register an $80k car in CA!

NBOOST - I agree, registering a $80k car in California will be pretty painful. Hopefully I buy from a private seller and we massage the bill of sale to lower the registration cost

Thanks for the tip, this car has a really rough history from the Rennlisters that have looked at it.
