1992 Porsche 968 Description

.
The previous auction missed the reserve by $300. I had a local buy lined up after the auction ended, but the buyer fell through. The new reserve is now lower than the previous auction's highest bid.
1992 Porsche 968 Convertible in White/Blue.
Purchased in April 2008.
Records and receipts dating back to previous owners.
D1R Supercharger installed Feb 2012.
18" rims mounted Feb 2012. Treads (BFGoodrich g-Force T/A KDW) ~65%.
ROW turn signal lenses installed last summer. No ugly bumperettes!
Many new parts under hood.
Maintenanced regularly.
Interior needs some TLC - the car *is* almost 25 years old...
Selling due to impending move out-of-country. I have a shortened timeline now, due to the previous auction not resulting in a sale. I don't have time for nit-picky, "Oh, this is not good enough", unrealistic buyers. This is a 25-year old car. It's not a museum car. I have put 60k on the car since 2008, and there's 190k on it total. I try to get the car in to the shop at least twice a year, so while I do drive it daily to work, the regular maintenance means I do it with no issues. But being an old car, there are some minor imperfections.
The right headlamp does not go down. I have pulled the fuse, so both lamps are up 'permanently,' and I actually like the look. Does not affect the functionality of the lamps.
The convertible top has a small, dime-sized hole on the driver's side panel. I don't drive it in the rain when at all possible, so there is no apparent water damage in the car. Along the same lines, the liner in the top is deteriorating, so if you get trapped in a heavy storm, it will begin to seep through. But like I said, I RARELY have it in the rain, so I haven't noticed any water damage.
The driver seat is worn out. Makes sense. 190k on the ticker.
Those are the three biggest issues I can think of. The frame is straight. Never been in an accident to my knowledge. I can provide more pictures and more detailed maintenance info to serious bidders... just ask!
