for sale

Price: US $38,000.00

Description:

Before we start, please let's agree on three things:
First
, do not bid unless you already have funds in hand an permission from your significant other.
Second
, I am extremely busy...which is why I haven't gotten around to selling this car earlier. So please, please, please. .be sensitive to my time. I will do the same for yours. Do not waste my time. I shoot straight and prefer to deal with only straight shooters. Showing by appointment only.
Third
, this car is extremely fast and attracts speed freaks. NO joyrides.
This is the best price for this car anywhere on eBay, period. It's tempting to make an offer when you see car with this great a price...so if you make an offer...make sure you come through. Do not waste my time and set your expectations accordingly. It is for sale locally and is cheaper than any turbo of this year and mileage. It may end soon.

I do not want to sell this car. It is a great car, and for the price you will not find this combination of performance,
reliability
and exotic appeal factor. This Porsche has the bulletproof Metzger engine that was developed for GT racing. It is so strong and expensive to make Porsche stopped using them for their new GT3 cars...and instead used an inferior engine that failed originally. The Metzger engine has never failed.
If was still a bachelor or owned a 2 car garage..or if my wife was comfortable driving stick...this car would not be up for sale. The fact is, I am married, live in NYC and quite frankly need to get something more practical. A gentleman must age gracefully and accept responsibility with cheer. Until of course he buys a home with a 2 car garage.
About the car:
I bought this car 3 years ago, prior to my ownership it had been an Atlanta car all it's life. The previous owner was a successful older man who drove this car on the weekends and occasionally on the track. It was never abused on the track. There are ZERO major over revs (I know because I had the DME done).
The car was modified, cared for and maintained by MotorWerksRacing.com. They are an exclusive Porsche shop do a lot of race prep and have an absolutely stellar reputation. Look them up online. Look at the pictures. Their vast experience is evident.
The car came with the following mods already installed, with $40k plus in receipts (the original shop has the receipts, I do not). These are all very high quality, well established names. All the mods are bolt on, work seamlessly and are dead set reliable.

My experience with the car:
Before I bought the car I did a full pre-purchase inspection at JSS motorsports with Bert, the owner. You need to understand I am a very risk averse person. I'm the kind of guy that looks up airline safety records and the financial stability of my insurance company. I don't bet on individual stocks, I put my money into mutual funds. In fact, I am a risk manager by training. So I did my pre-purchase homework...I sure as hell was not taking any unnecessary risks.
Look up Bert Mota on the Porsche forums. We confirmed there were no major over revs, leaks, IMS issues, etc. To quote, whoever put this car together definitely knew what they were doing. People are sometimes afraid of lightly driven track cars. This is a misconception for a performance vehicle like Porsche. Putting the car through the paces determines very early on if you've got a dud or a winner. This car is a winner. This engine and transmission is solid.
He is the most honest mechanic I have ever known. I have to prompt him to charge me for more business...he never over charges and he shoots straight. I have serviced my car with them ever since. They just serviced the car 2 months ago and did smog/certify. Please feel free to call Bert, he'll tell you the unvarnished truth. jssperformance.com or call (516) 877-9899.
Do not buy this car if you do not like attention. It has a deep growl and occasionally sets of car alarms.
I only drive this car on roadtrips including a round trip to Canada. In my time this car has been a joy. This it is all that it has needed:A clutch replaced 2, 000 miles ago, replaced the coil pack (both preventative) and changed spark plugs. Obviously oil changes every year or every 1.5 k miles whichever comes first.
In my three years these are the only things I had to do to the car other than maintenance...a broken solenoid bracket ($30 part and a very common problem), replaced a turbo hose ($120 part) and replaced a MAF ($120 part). It has been so much cheaper to maintain than my previous BMWs! Amazing.
This car was keyed once. I had it fixed under insurance at Porsche. They repainted the whole car except the roof and wing. You would never have known to look at, but I want to be upfront about it.
What's wrong with the car:
Again, for the price of this car...you are getting an amazing deal. .seriously...compare my price to any other car on eBay on any classified. It's half the price of a 2008 turbo with 90% of the performance.
As you can see, this car has been pretty amazing for a 13 year old car that can accelerate from 0 to 60 in under 4 seconds. But it is also a 13 year old car.1) There are some cosmetic dings here and there. It is still a stunning car but it is not pristine.2) The right rocker panel is cracked towards the bottom from going over a high speed bump. Hard to see but wanted to be up front (look at pic)3) The hydraulic wing that goes up at 75mph sensor is faulty. Common problem. 4) Bert says if I want to get less vibration in the car, to replace the engine mounts with dynamic mounts. Doesn't affect performance or reliability of the car.
Again nothing that affects reliability and functioning of the car. You may have never noticed this, but again, I want to be honest.
About me:
They say when it comes to used cars...buy the seller not the car.
I believe in karma and would never sell something that I would not myself buy. If my brother worked in NYC instead of Toronto, he'd be buying this car. There's a good chance a couple of years from now...I may want to buy this car back from you, I love it that much.
I am selling only to buy a luxury SUV or sedan. Call or text me with any questions: 203 747 5259.
This car is very fast. NO joyrides.
Final words:
I am in no hurry to sell this car. That said, I'm not an irrational seller looking to monetize every last ounce of intrinsic value from this car. I'd rather have a hassle free, expedient transaction and give up a little capital gain in the process.
In turn, extend me the courtesy of following through as you would any business transaction. If you want this car shipped, you do all the work. My end of the deal is to get money in my bank and that's it. I have zero time to facilitate shipping from my end. I'd much prefer you see this car in person. This car is advertised locally and can sell at anytime.
This is an amazing value proposition for the lucky winner. You cannot even buy an M3 with this amount of power, looks and reliability. This is a bullet proof car that will only go up in value. It will happily outrun most things and sound like pure sex doing it. Women will flock to you. People will take pictures of you in the car. Young boys coping with the stressors only post-pubescence can produce will try and race you in their very fast Subarus. It comes with the territory. You will love this car if you win.
