Cleanest 550SE I’ve come across $36,900

Not from Craigslist but interesting nonetheless. Sadly this will most likely never be a driver.

I'm just glad he's taking them off the older 911. They do not look good on that car.

OMG!!! My dad would whip the tar out of me if I did that (and he's been gone for 34 yrs). For God's sake use a step ladder man.

He doesn't show the most rust prone areas at all. If they are clean (which is not likely) it would be a nice car

That CL ad is showing up everywhere. Titles are random...last local one I saw as for a set of tires. I flag them all the time, not that it'll help.

Interesting that it says it was built from a 2001 S, but seems to me to be a base model. I'd like to see the VIN.

You're probably right. Unless some collector wants a brand-new 1999 car for his stable.

Not to mention, it's being sold by a dealer who probably has no service records or knowledge of the car's history, other than what's on CarFax. Was the car driven regularly? Even 20 miles a month? Or did it sit for 10 years in one stretch?

I wouldn't touch this car, let alone pay what you could buy a nice 987 for.
