I knew that as well. I just don't like being the guy to say it. I always feel like a wet blanket!

Yep thats a Craigslist post for sure.

Porsche 356, numbers matching and in excellent working condition. Original Fuchs and new Michelin tires. Older restoration with complete respray in original chocolate brown. Needs nothing. Turn key, come on down and drive it away. First $50K takes.

That sounds about right.

IIRC, that is an Emory car, one that they have at their shop.

In reply to kanaric:

Nah, unless giant wheels fall out of favor soon, they'll be removed from the vehicle far before even that late 90s-early 2000s craptastic paint peels off. Half or more of the value in a donk is usually the rims, I frequent Detroit junkyards and I've yet to see a 20+" wheel in there.

lol I guess that explains why in North Las Vegas I see people with rims that probably cost $1100 each. Didn't consider junk yard rim trolling

Or it could be because the local "Rent-n-Roll" repo's them before it's hauled off to the scrapper.
