And wonder about the R up north. Ad says the body is perfect yet it has a salvage title. Wonder how that happens?

well, the vendor clearly acknowledges the rebuilt status. and the rebuild probably resulted in new bodywork, paint, etc., hence the 'perfect' bodywork at this point. not to hijack, but i wonder how much damage it takes to write off a modern porsche? ie how to balance branded title against resale value against lots of car for small dollars against potential impact on frame straightness etc.

it is mentioned in this rennlist thread; member Turbodan is a frequent poster and apparently knows the seller - perhaps he can help out:
