To days left on eBay in Texas. The car might have some potential if the price remains low enough and the mechanicals are in good shape.

Wimbledon green is a great color ( IMO ) when seen in person, photos don't always do it justice

Looks like it will need lots of work to get to an acceptable level then will still need a headgasket... So this $6k car will cost?? I'd rather pay more dollars for a better one. Too bad, it is a cool color.

Went for $7k. Not a bad price, even though it will need belts. Since we have to replace belts every four years, it is always around the corner anyhow.

I love this color. I've owned four 968's, and this is the color that I kept. Only 9 coupes in this color, and I think it was only offered in 1993.

It looks like it has a lot more than 94,000 miles. Engine bay and interior looks very neglected.

Love that color!

Saw this for sale in Pomona on Sunday - $6500, 150k miles I think it was. Anyone know what brand splitter this is?

Pictured here - I believe Porsche calls it "seafoam green" :huh: - may be my most favorite car color of all time..and probably for any make or model ! I saw it close up and in person on a 911GT3 ( IIRC ), at the German Autofest in Ventura, Ca many years ago, and I just stood there drooling. If I ever paint the second 968, it'll likely be in this shade, though doubtful that'll happen, the cost is simply not worth it on a 20 year old daily driver which is constantly beaten up by the elements. And my Iris Blue 968 is way too beautiful to mess with.. Anyway, spectacular color IMO.
