Porsche -- the other white meat

A potential job change and two kids in college force me to be responsible and thin the herd... and you know what? I'd rather keep the BMWs.

Great writer, and looks like a great 911!

Rob are you still wanting to sell the wagon and if so how much were you asking?

[thehackmechanic]

Am I still selling the wagon? Oh, maybe... I put it out there at $6500, which I knew I was unlikely to get, but there were very few nibbles. As you must already know, it's a 5-speed with the sport package and 153k. Feel free to call me and chat about it, 617-365-8303, but as offers get down into the $4500 range, hell for that I'll just hold onto it and drive it into the ground...

Ok Rob, I've got a new career idea for you... eBay ad writer!

If every description was written as well (and as honest), I bet sales would skyrocket...

Beautiful car, GLWS...

Aaron - Somehow I knew you would check out Rob's ad for the 911. ;-).

Rob - great ad and lots of pictures.

Thanks guys. I write up all my ads like this. The trend with eBay ads -- to describe as little as possible so you can't be tripped up if the car is not "as described" -- drives me crazy. As '02 guys, when you know 95% of everything you need to know within 15 seconds of seeing a car, as a prospective buyer, wouldn't you WANT that information? And as a seller, by revealing as much as possible, you remove uncertainty, which lowers risk, which increases bids. Plus, as a guy walking the planet with other people and wanting to look myself in the face every morning, hiding things just isn't my style... :^)
