'91 Carrera 2
5 spd.
87k miles
Asking $18k (with stock wheels)

What do y'all think?

[SlickShift]

Looks nice. I don't know too much about 964's, but 87K miles isn't bad.

[JCapelo]

I like it alot!

[AzzMan]

I'd rather rock a 993 personally but that looks like a helluva buy.

[DeafBimmerDude007]

damn i love it

[kelso]

id rock it, i like that generation

[///Mental]

if you dont buy it im going to!!! HURRY UP!!! :o

[sublimefan86]

i would only object to the price, just cuz 18 g's for a 15 year old car is too much for me. then again, its a porsche. got pics of interior?

[TheDarkSide]

Looks in good shape, how about another Mini!? :alright:

[Cobb_Web]

It does look hella nice, but thats quite a big price tag for a 15 year old car. It is a porsche, but still kinda high. Honestly, for a car that old, the miles are good. If I were you, id haggle the price down, and then buy it.

DO IT! DO IT! DO IT! DO IT! DO IT! DO IT!:bow:

[944attack]

18k (with stock wheels)

^ does this mean the car wont come with the turbo-twists like in the picture?

[JonnyChimpO]

do it, dont even think about, just do it.

[TheDarkSide]

Javi PM me your email so I can confirm your account BTW.

[LDadrenaline]

seems overpriced. 15 years old and 87k miles. 87k miles is low for being that old, but its still quite a bit of miles. if you can get the price around 15k id say go for it.

[///Mental]

where is this being listed?

[TheDarkSide]

That is a secret!

[Javi]

Here's the listing:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=018&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&viewitem=&item=280071101205&rd=1,1 (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=018&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&viewitem=&item=280071101205&rd=1,1)

The last picture shows the stock wheels (twisties are available for extra $$)

Yeah, $18K is no chump change but that's what 964's go for. In fact, this is as cheap as they get in good condition. You wanna play, you gotta pay ;)

It didn't sell so I might be able to negotiate a little. The only thing stopping me is the color. I just did a count and 11 out of the 14 cars I've owned were black. Getting tired of it.

And if I'm going to spend $20k maybe I should get something a little bit faster (though 964's are no slouches and will hit 60 mph in the low 5 sec. range). Maybe spend a little more and get an M coupe or E46 M3.... dunno.

I also bid on this '88 but didn't win. I'm not crazy about convertibles but I'm a sucker for Strosek 911's :bow:

[TheDarkSide]

Nice as well

Buy my 964 instead! It's a pristine 1990 Porsche 911 Carrera 2 Cabriolet with only 7,000 miles on it! Here's a link to the eBay auction (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=015&sspagename=STRK%3AMESE%3AIT&viewitem=&item=250076367060&rd=1&rd=1).

[J_dEAl]

that thing is clean as hell......DO IT!

[copsknowme]

BUY IT!!! 18k is cheap for a 911... ANY 911. I've looked.

[AzzMan]

Seeing other pictures, BUY THAT MOFO GOGOGOGOGOGOGO.

[SlickShift]

Yeah, it's red!!! ;)

[chris]

i kinda agree with LD, it's a tad pricey, but 15k wouldn't be too bad. The car looks nice though.

[g-50cab]

18 k is not bad for that car with under 90k miles. The 964's especially the early ones need a prepurchase inspection before you confirm the deal.

They had problems with the dual mass flywheel - the cyinder to head and cylinder to case leaking (costly repair, you have to replace the cylinders and pistons AND machine to case to fix properly) AND the distributer didn;t come with a vent kit until 1992 - (what happens is the dual distributers are run by a belt, Ozone builds up and the belt brakes, causing the 2nd set of sparkplugs to quit working) bad PR on an 11 to 1 compression aircooled engine.

[g-50cab]

Oh and a properly set up 964 - which was the first 911 to come from the factory with ABS, and coil overs and and aerodynamic undertray will walk just about every other 15-18K car on the track in the right hands.

Oh one more thing - all 911's are 20,000 cars. Buy one for $10K and you'll easily put $10k into it.

[LDadrenaline]

^^^^^^ +1 +1 +1

Ouch it's a sad truth... But that thing is CLEAN, I would definitely look into it.
