Yes, incredibly low mileage.... so??

While I would never pay that for a base 944, I don't think $23K is that crazy either.

Like I commented on their Facebook page:

"Yeah, but why though"

Different strokes for different folks and all, but yeah that's just silly, IMO.

At $23k? Nice price. Inflation-adjusted, that car was $65k pretax. You can buy it in new condition for a third of what it cost new.

I know, I know....but it will fall apart as soon as it starts being driven. I'm not so sure. Change the TB and fluids and start driving it.

Would I purchase that? Nope. Is it a bad price? I don't think so. That is basically a new car for 23k.

I'd like to buy it and swap in an LSx and watch the 944 geeks implode.

Crap. On one hand I'd love you to do this. On the other I REALLY don't like LS swaps, it's over done and unimaginative (I get it, I do, but it's not my thing).

Is there a German version of Keith on this board we could drag into this conversation?

No Fuchs

Speedometer was broken

Third gear syncro is bad

Given what that are trying to sell this as.... Ummmmm no. I suspect, while low mileage, this car was driven more than indicated.

A 944 would be near the bottom of the list of "Cars I'd Pay 23 Big Ones For". Even a 695-mile 944.

No Fuchs Given? Maybe the miles are accurate but those miles were HAAAARD miles?

Just for a datapoint, RM Sotheby's recently got $26,400 for a really clean 944.
