I threw up a little in my mouth when I saw the muffler on the first car. The second car has been listed on ebay for a long time now. He's not gonna hit reserve with a non-runner.

With the flat dish wheels, leather seats, and 3-spoke steering wheel, it's quite possible that it's a 931 "S", and may in fact have an LSD-equipped snail shell.

As for the seller's claim of a larger turbo, he obviously has no clue what he's talking about.

It was the muffler that did it for you? That checkered interior is what got me; I still can't see straight after looking too closely at it...

That interior is not only factory, but it is freakin awesome. I'd love to have it in my car.

Knowing the Dorifto guys, it wouldn't surprise me if they did find a way to stuff a larger turbo or at least larger impellers in the factory turbo. Not a good solution, but then they did put a cheap carbon fiber muffler on the car and slam it in the weeds.

Have a set of those door cards, and the rear seat. The bottom seat is in good condition, but the upper has sun fade on top. Cheap, real cheap if ya want! I'll be pulling them this spring.

I feel a LOT better about my car after looking at those two. Thanks! Mine only has 68,000 miles now too. Damn. I'm asking a mint when I sell it if those two are bid that high without meeting reserve.
