I like the exterior color.

Weird bolster wear on MBTex and 63 miles.

Yep.... weird... the miles are low but ... also east coast...

Cali car with records

[Desertbreh]

No P2 on either of those cars.

[MrH42]

What am I missing here? Granted, it's a 991, base, cabrio, which is like the least desirable combo imaginable...but still only $6k with just a day to go?

I check every time. They must have made 2 or 3

I think the one I sent might …. I thought pano roofs are P2 cars … it’s super rare to find one

Breh notes P2 cars have the silver push button start on the shift knob.

That's a really good over rev report, from what I'm seeing?

I tried to google it as I am no P car expert, it seems like level 4 is already bad? but I could be wrong. Also what a weird thing to track.

Yep, no keyless with start stop no P2. @ Max, my friend Eric in SF got the 2008 w/Pano and no P2. You can get a 2007 Mazda 3 Grand Touring........Bi Xenon. But a 2007 MBZ E Class with Bi-Xenon is unobtanium.

Man… if a manual poverty spec 991 cab goes for not much I’m kinda in.

In retrospect it may be best not to buy em as they may not be available and total the car during a fender [user not found]

Interestingly a new set of Bi Xenons is a keyboard stroke away @ FCP Euro. It's the CODING that is key. In any event the Morimoto workaround.....works.

It's 4 revolutions at level 4. That's nothing. 23 at range 2 is also insanely low is how I'm interpreting it. Only 473 revolutions at redline. That reads like a car that was owned by the ultimate boomer Sunday driver.

Man… if a manual poverty spec 991 cab goes for not much I’m kinda in.

Nevermind. It's up to $28,500 with 6+ hours to go. Really slow start to this auction for whatever reason.

Even if it ends at $40k - $45k that's a hell of a car.

ND miata colors have been garbage, especially recently.

White, gray, black, red, primer, and sand? A dark, dark blue only on club?

Who is deciding sand, primer, and dark blue over a fun color?

[Desertbreh]

I rented a Nissan Armada with 39K miles on it in Hawaii. "Tahoe Class Vehicle." It was.......a pile. Rear suspension sag big time, resulting in near tuck with 4 passengers and luggage. Handled vaguely even accounting for its barge status. Thirsty. Ugly. Some mediocre design components like a power rear hatch with four strut connections. Crappy throttle response and transmission function unless you hammered it. A Tahoe/Yukon is just A LOT better vehicle. I understand why these and their overpriced Infinity stablemate depreciate like a flume ride. Not a good truck.

They have not been great. And as nice as the red is, it’s impossible to color match if you need a bumper resprayed.

The Camaro that I rented in Hawaii with 33k miles felt like it had 120k miles... I also had a GLC300 with 25k miles that felt like 125k, and quite a few others, the pattern is always the same. Unless they have under 5k miles they are absolutely trashed. These things are used HARD and put away wet. And Hawaii weather does a number on the vehicles also... the seats/paint are basically shot by year 2/3... its a pretty extreme use case scenario... That said... Armada is a hard pass from me as well.

[CaleDeRoo]

I liked the QX80 rentals I've had, and I suspect I'd like them more since the facelift a couple years ago.

Agreed Hawaii cars get trashed. There is red dirt in some of them that is never coming out.
