I say this with no offence intended whatsoever, and you can do whatever you want with your own cash, yet when I've advised that 3 others have said its worth bugger all (one said its worth 40grand tops) due to its grey history (what that is I also have no firm information), and the potential to be a headache getting rego as Richmonds advise on their site, do you really want a potential $100,000 plus financial disaster? A full rebuild is probably $30grand. Absolutely it is a very nice looking car that is batshit crazy fast, yet it is basically a G series car with a bodykit and a turbo engine...that needs work. All I advise is to be careful if you do go after it mate. I'd hate to see anyone drop a substantial amount of money on a lemon and regret it later. Caveat emptor! Appreciate the note & and the advice! It's a shame, as it sounds like great fun. I shall keep hunting! Might make sense for me to consider an import with the AUD$ where it is...

Surprisingly, being yelled at in multi-color all caps didn't lure the buyers in? No takers for a supercar (sic) minus engine and custom interior wiring?

You need to be retired and in your 70s to like this colour! luzzo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For some reason I really like it. The colour and the wood touches all add up to something I should not like but do. The price is pretty good too for a 991. Nice Sunday driver. Oh no. I just read WGA's comment above after posting that I like it. But I only meet one of the 2 elements he stipulated, so don't know how I feel now. micknine01 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike D'Silva Posted 17June, 2020 Report Share Posted 17June, 2020 Was this one discussed? 77 2.7 Targa, converted from LHD (going by headlights) Burnt valves and apparently needing a rebuild. Was listed I think, at $55k? Only on market for a week or so I think and now listed as sold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rminc Posted 17June, 2020 Report Share Posted 17June, 2020 Ye, the one I sent has been listed for at least a month now. It's more than I'd spend on one, but am curious to the condition. It looks to be sorted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
