Mind boggling. 425,000 for a wrecked car.

Wow, goodish price. Good price for a 959, maybe not for a ruined one... idk. I’d make it a rally car

I’m sure that finding parts will be easy...

Actually, it’s as easy as finding the C4GTS specific parts for mine!

Step 1: take it to the dealer.
Step 2: they call Stuttgart
Step 3: uncontrollable sobbing

I wonder how all this works with insurance. Was it even insured? I have so many questions. Either way, I was shocked they basically said, meh, send it to auction.

Porsche still has every single part for this car so it is just a matter of walking into the dealer and handing them a massive check.

Part of me hopes they lose their ass remediating it.

...but I hope they remediate it.

Hey if you can afford $425k for a wrecked car, writing a blank check should be no problem, I guess?

This boggles my damn mind.

I wonder if the shipper that was at fault for the damage will be on the hook for the difference between the preincident  appraised value and the final sale price. I bet their insurer drops them real quick if that’s the case.

i loved how in some of those old “cheap (expensive)car” challenges that the top gear guys did, how they would show up with an overheating, knocking mess of a car......
