Hi Chris. Yes personally I would say the Black car is good value, especially if someone in europe buys it. The price differential between the Red collectors car and the Black ex race car is large.
It's a shame dealers get a bit of a hard time on here, especially as I consider some giving the stick as friends rather than customers. Having said that from my perspective I'm not sure whether I'm a dealer or someone who has formalised their hobby. I basically got involved with these cars as an enthusiast.
The Red car is a truely stunning example and the Black car is an ex race car thats had some damage, nothing too serious though. It's mechanically and body matching numbers car, but has had both front wings replaced. The outside has just had a full repaint by a dealer, so not a bad looking car. The only thing really missing on this car are the mag wheels.
Hi Clubsport. Glad you like the racing. To be honest in my own collection I now have a 993 GT2-R a 964 RSR and 993 RSR and thought about selling one of them, but not sure I can bring myself to do it. I've got someone in the states chasing the 964 RSR and I've started getting cold feet over it. Really not sure what to do.

As regards dealers getting a hard time, let me redress the balance a little.
Its just about 2 years since I bought a Maritime RSL from you on the basis that you said it was a nice car. I think it fair to say that that opinion has been confirmed by most people who have subsequently seen the car. What they may not know is that when lights and brake disc issues arose that required rectificaiton for the first registration and MOT, you took a great deal of personal time to solve both problems at no cost to me. The service you provided was of the highest standard and I would have no hesitation in buying from you again.
So to quote a certain newly elected president of the USA "If there is anyone out there (reading this) who still questions..." then pm me.
Regards
Nick

I'm aware that last year a certain dealer/importer had a bit of a hard time on here after seeking freebie knowledge from some very helpful members - then using the very same knowledge to sell their stock at a sizeable profit to UK buyers. It was interpreted by some of us as biting the hand that feeds etc...
Personally Paul, I would like to see you posting here a lot more than you do. You are very experienced with the rarer and more-special Porsches and I feel the 964RS forum suffers with not having you here more often to share your knowledge.
I think the number of posts on here recommending a call to GT Classics shows that you are a well-respected and welcome member of the RS clan here.

I am another who is saddened by the fact that Paul feels he cannot post as much as we would like. Paul is an invaluable member of our community who has helped many, and not just those that are his customers. He gave me lots of advice when I was looking for a car, including telling me to buy the car I did even though it wasn't from him. And it was the right decision! Paul also gave me great advice later, even though I was still not going to be a customer!
I have no hesitation in recommending Paul anddo hope he feels he can contribute more of his in depth knowledge in the future.

Best regards, Matt.

Is the bendy pipe for shouting at the Philippino boy under the bonnet to peddle faster? [
