Apparently I have the world’s only unsellable Porsche

Kinja'd!!!

Since I will be moving soon I need to get rid of this car and I though the low low price of $1500 would get me a serious offer of $1000 and I could be rid of it. But no, I have had nothing but one scam email. JUST ONE! FML I don’t want this thing. It may go to the junkyard

I’d make you a tasty deal if you really want it.... Like seriously I would take $800 at this point.

I love these but cash flow is bad right now because I’m still in college and I’m not making a lot. Plus it’s a long way from Michigan and I’d have to tow it and get permission to have a project car since I’m still living at home. On the plus side no smog test here in Michigan. I would literally be spending more to get it here than you would want for it :(

Did you try Carmax? :)

But seriously, with all the Porsche groups and pages, you can’t find someone who wants this out there?

Nope, I tried the 928 owners groups and that had no bites.

It is all good. Someone will buy it eventually, soon, I hope.

Overall how is the body? I might have a guy for you...

Body is mostly straight except the left front fender has a bit of a dent and crack in the facia after a technician at a shop hit it with another car.

From not being register for a year the state fines you

Well, it doesn’t run, needs to be smogged, and isn’t titled. God only knows what else could be lurking. Without being able to test drive it, I assume it would be very, very hard to sell.

Just my .02 cents - but good luck with it!

Ugg I know, but it’s still a cheap Porsche....

Can you title it, smog it, and at least get it running? Relist it at 4500 or best offer? Maybe throw on some cheap furry white seat covers from JC Whitney?

Also, what’s a “back fee”? The money you owe a shop on the car the new owner will have to pay off? That needs to be taken care of too.

No, its the fees charged by the state for not being registered for a year.

Join Quattroworld forum , VW Vortex and Audiworld forums. I’m pretty sure they all have free classified ads still, you’ll reach real car people and not a bunch of Craigslist weirdos. Not sure if any of the Porsche forums has freebie listings.

VERY NEARLY GIVING IT AWAY!!!....... as soon as you let go of it five people are going to ask if you still have it. get rid of its listing on craig, and make a new one for $3 or $4k more, and see what happens.....

its frustrating when you have such a clean body like that with so much potential.......

Drop the price down to $600 and post it for sale on the 24 hours of lemons forum:

I bet you’ll get some takers then... and then you can read about how your car did in an actual race!
