Don't even bother looking. If it runs and drives, it's probably a trick to get you to "break it", then they force you to pay to fix a problem they already know about.

You sure that price isn't missing another zero on the end?

depending on the condition you could part it out for 4 x that amount...used porsche parts are an amazing thing

just selling off pieces of my interior, a/c system, p/s system, spare tire, etc. i netted $1500 (half what i paid for my car in the first place)
