YellowDieselGolf Posted 14August, 2023 Report Share Posted 14August, 2023 3 hours ago, JLD said: The seller is pretty cagey about the import status. That's probably why it keeps being sold then available again No under body shots and the seller is very slow and vague in answering questions. Lots of red flags for what should be an easy transaction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YellowDieselGolf Posted 14August, 2023 Report Share Posted 14August, 2023 The Targa was reported as sold for 104k. Does CC have a reserve? Will it reappear on marketplace? 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HWY Posted 14August, 2023 Report Share Posted 14August, 2023 Seems like a reasonable price considering it is being bought with unknown history. At least the seller was realistic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least the seller was realistic. The price did end up reasonable. Being a manual , if you dropped 30K on it to fix it up you'd still be OK. There's rust on the car, not sure to the extent but if you look at the pic of the passenger side mirror that shows the VIN there's a rust bubble under the windscreen stamp. Total lotto on that one I reckon. sjm 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike-S Posted 15August, 2023 Report Share Posted 15August, 2023 At circa $110k with the buyers premium, it’s a fair way under the $138 it was last listed at on Carsales, seller probably hasn’t covered his costs of buying / importing if it all turns out to be fully complied.

911virgin Posted 18August, 2023 Report Share Posted 18August, 2023 That white 993 manual with 109kms sold within 24 hours because it was low KMs AND about $45- 75k below what manual examples have been selling for in the last year( after the crazy pandemic price correction).

That is a pretty shitty benchmark to use mate. It is a UK import which is worth 30-50% less than an Aussie delivered car. This one is still way too overpriced and they sit around for ages. 🙈 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucky buyer got a great price I don’t follow 993s but if they’re like the Porsches I do, I have to ask, was it that far below what they’re “selling for”, or just below what they’re “listing and delisting over and over for two years without ever actually selling for”? 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had been moving at 180-220k depending on condition, varioram etc. SS 3 and JWM 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My 2 cents here: 1. always buy on condition in the first instance. 2. then, always get an independent PPI, no matter who has looked after the car. If they are both similar, with recent rebuilds. I would still take the aust delivered car anyday. (Yes some ppl may shoot me!) My reasoning behind this, having just had a car sold by a dealer for me, they are far far easier to move, despite the higher entry price. cafe_racer, HWY and sleazius 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
