I bought my Box S from a very reputable BMW dealer in Dallas off eBay. Wired the money, flew down from Chicago and drove it home, had a blast; everything I expected and more from a 2.5 year old car with 7600 miles. Also purchased a '93 911 RS America from Isringhausen sight unseen. Traded an '86 Carrera that they had only seen in photos before negotiating deal. RSA showed up on a transporter to my home, unloaded and loaded the '86 trade at no expense to me. Did puchase the '86 sight unseen, flew to Detroit and drove it back. Nice car, a PPI would have revealed some issues, but the price was right. I've owned numerous 911 variants over the years mostly purchased locally. I have always inspected them in person, but the internet has changed the game, as has the current generation of 911 flippers.
