That car is a steal. If I didn't love the one I have now, I'd go for it.

Really, really nice car. I was in NC with Adam at SITM this year.
Not lacking in performance either!
GLWS!

Thanks for all of the positive comments guys, she is a nice car and I never planned to sell it, especially after all the work i have done. But I could not pass up the 87 5 spd.

I love the finish on those wheels. Just great stuff.

You know when you're working on that '87, you can drive the '85. That's what I'd do.

I wish I could keep two, but I have no space and the wife would kill me.

Here is the car fax report.

Very nice car.

Your price is too low. You need to double it. That will give you more time to figure out how to keep both. There are times when driving a 5 speed sucks. You really need one of each.

Both is a good idea. Numerous occasions I have wished that I also had an auto.

Like when you get stuck in bumper to bumper traffic on an interstate during rush hour? That's torture in any Porsche with a manual transmission - especially a 928.
