  1. Being a full time student blowing close to everything I got to get a car that won't be driven much at all isn't practical to me right now. Id have to sell all the toys and be stuck with some turd daily. As bad as it sounds I probably would still do it but since the car isn't going anywhere anytime soon I can hold off. I'm mainly looking for a shell. If only I bounced on this thing on time.

    Even if its a targa ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

     

    That car is sold, but if it weren't... has no engine in it. Porsche flat 6s are VERY expensive, and ls-swaps last I checked were $8k+ if you do the wrenching yourself and buy off-the-shelf hardware. If that car is perfect otherwise, $6500 ain't bad if you can source a replacement long block and hardware.

  2. You missed your window by a couple years. If you're looking for high mile, salvage title cars keep in mind porsche parts are somewhat expensive, and you can easily spend more fixing a $20k porsche than just buying a good running $30k porsche.

     

    If I find anyone that out of touch with reality with a 911 worth buying, I'm getting it for myself. If they have more of them, I'll let you know.

     

    In your price range you can get very decent 996s, 944 turbos, 968s, boxsters, and some caymans

  3. That said, Driving a sub $2000 rust-bucket car that you just bought down to Florida is full of :dumb:. Clay the last thing you want on that trip (i've done it dozens of times) is to break down..common now.

     

    Seriously. I seriously doubt you'll find much that's worth a damn for that price range. Even decent mechanical stuff will be cosmetically so destroyed will be miserable to use.

     

    I've got a sweet e36 that's been perfectly reliable for 3+ years if you want to give me $2000 + $1200? Plus it's a 6-cylinder so none of that pesky 4-banger head gasket trouble.

  4. By that you mean 6 month old second best tire available this year?

     

    Yeah but these poverty tires aren't made in meaty 285 width for proper powerhouses, only these little rx8-sized 245s PFFFF

     

    I suspect we'll see these super sticky re71s will be overheated at a track day and wear much faster than rs3v2 in the same size/application.

     

    Buy me a set of rivals, I'll bet you a ginger ale they're faster than rs3s on my car

  5. Looks great man!

     

    miller runnin on da rimz for the ultimate in weight reduction.

     

    how much are you going to pay to beat me this time? federal money, or are we stepping all the way up to re-71r money? surely you're not joining team full-on-mega-cheater-racing-slick?
