    I know what you mean. He had a 996 twin turbo, 700hp, caged. You could tell it lived a beat life. It was not a good example of a 996. He gets some impressive shit there, but I don't think I'd ever buy from him.

    Talked to the dealer yesterday, he says that car will stay in the garage at night. Don't know if it will, don't live close enough to drive by it and see.

    Won't really "rot" in snow, considering it's basically frozen water...

    Now, if you drove it around in the salt, different story.

    If it looks good, you'll see it. If it sounds good, you'll hear it. If it's marketed right, you'll buy it. But if it's real, you'll feel it. IG: @donuttrump

    What difference does it make? These cars aren't street legal. And I have never seen it outside, so I guess it does stay in a garage.

    meh, its still bad for the paint. All that dirty acid rain and stuff. Not to mention all the water sitting there then drying then coming back then drying etc. will eventually start to rust even the tiniest spots where there is no paint. And that rust will spread.

    I guess i'm glad I can't afford it ... I would drag that thing all over the east coast on an open trailer, race it to within an inch of it's life, let it sit out at the track overnight, and in general use it as a race car ... Ride it hard and put it away wet :D

    Thats the last thing i'd expect to see at a used car dealer. If someone had the money, this would easily give a return profit a few years from now.
