Porsche 911 Turbo Slantnose Bargain

April 8, 2011 by Ryan

Today’s bargain is a little different. I found this beauty on Craigslist. It’s a 1975 Porsche 911 Turbo Look Slantnose. The color of this car is absolutely amazing in my opinion. I LOVE the gray with black interior. It also has some nice engine modifications to enhance the fun factor. Just over 57k miles on er.

Here are some details from the Craigslist ad:

I love this car, and the only reason that I’m selling it is because I’m becoming a father, and this is not really a practical “daddy” car.

The car has 57,xxx miles with a CLEAR TITLE. A new $12,000 engine was installed and has only 7,000 miles on it to date. I have all the records for this. This car is NOT TURBO. It is a 2.7 with 6 carburetors, high performance installed by Porsche and some other parts.

Runs and drives great. Fuel lines and the clutch are new. Has a set of 2004 wheels with new Dunlop tires, in excellent condition with about 95% rubber.

Moon roof works perfectly and does NOT leak. Doors, locks and mirrors are fine, power windows work just fine. All lights work.

The dude is asking $19,000 for it. Sounds like a reasonable price and I’d offer a few grand less, especially since it’s been up for a bit now.

The thing that would make this car cool, aside from it being a Porsche 911 Turbo Slantnose, which sets it apart from most Porsche 911 Turbos you’re going to see around town, is the fact that it has the non-turbocharged engine. Sure you’re going to miss some fun factor, but the maintenance requirements and costs decrease dramatically when you’re not dealing with a Turbo motor.

Today’s deal is a another Ferrari 360. This time around we’ve got a 1999 Ferrari 360 Modena. Looks like it’s got a solid folder of service records. I love the Ferrari yellow. Second only to red in my opinion. The black interior is timeless and classy looking. Just over 23k miles on the odometer.

Here are a few things from the auction page:

This exotic machine comes fully equipped with:

– Multi-Disc CD Changer

March 30, 2011 by Ryan

Yet another deal on a Ferrari 360. This time, a 2000 Ferrari 360 GT. Silver with black interior. Just under 20k miles on it with what appears to be all the recent service work required to keep it up to date.

Here are some details from the auction page:

I am selling my 2000 Ferrari 360 Modena. Everything that can be needed to be done to a pre-2002 Modena has been done. I attached pictures showing the recent records all from 2010, showing i had $19,000 worth of just service and upgrade work done to the car. New clutch, hoses, belts, upgraded F1 hydraulic pump (post 2002), TCU and Tubi exhaust upgrade. The car runs and sounds great, like a real formula one car. The work was done by ccferrari.com.

I also have a PPI inspection report, the car is currently being stored at Ferrari Lamborghini tech in Lodi NJ.

Also I have every take-off part from the car. When the work was done I requested the original clutch, throw out bearing, basically every part replaced on the car, I kept. I still have the factory exhaust as well if interested buyer has any interest in having that as well.

Currently offered for a Buy It Now of $66,900. I’d offer a few grand less and see what happens. If it’s truly up to date, be a great bargain.

March 29, 2011 by Ryan

I still think the Ferrari 348 is one of the few bargain Ferraris left out there. It embodies everything that makes a Ferrari a Ferrari, yet has not been picked up by the enthusiasts and priced out of the ballpark for many who dream of owning a Ferrari.

Porsche 911 Turbo Slantnose

February 3, 2011 by Ryan

This Porsche 911 Turbo slantnose came up on eBay a few days ago. It’s a heck of a bargain, although it does need a little work. It’s a 1987 with 88,706 miles on it. Not a bad blue color, although the interior is also blue…not my favorite.

There’s some damage to the driver rear quarter panel, and it sounds like it hasn’t been run much in the last few years. It may take a little work to get going, but you would have a great deal for potentially a great price.

Current bid price is just $16,400. It’s got less than a day left.

Here’s a link to the auction page if you want to check out more pictures: Porsche 911 Turbo Slantnose.

Another Bargain Ferrari 360

January 28, 2011 by Ryan

Another day, another Ferrari bargain. I love the perception that driving a Ferrari means you’re a millionaire. Personally, I don’t like exotic cars for status reasons. I’m one of those guys who just loves cool cars, both sports and luxury. They’re a blast to drive and add some pizazz to life.

Today is a 2004 Ferrari 360 F1. Classic red with tan interior. THE colors for a Ferrari in my opinion. It’s got just over 30k miles on the odo and looks to be in great condition with the cover and toolkit even inclu

ded. All the major options and even says it’s up to date on service.

Get this…it’s up for $77,500. That’s a great deal for a later model 360.
