    Hi Gents
    I purchased a car from this dealer and they were absolute professionals. They even picked up at the airport and brought my purchase on a flatbed so I could drive off without the delay of returning to their showroom. I would absolutely buy from them again. Adam

    The celebrity connection probably doesn't add much to it's value, but the dealer/seller looks to be pretty candid about the car's condition. 150 photos of all of all of it's shortcomings is pretty stand-up.

    My question is; is it worth saving at all?

    Quite a bit of rust underneath in front and other areas appear to have been covered over with undercoating. Car comes with original engine, so possibly could be restored if purchased for the right price. Dealer appears to be very honest in their appraisal of the car.

    Nothing new there. Dealers like to douche the undersides of cars before they take pictures. CA cars are no less prone to rust than any other Porsche if they've been exposed to the elements. The ones that live inland do better than the beach types.

    It is not terrible. Longitudinals looks good -- floor and front pan have issues.

    In any event, MUCH MUCH worse has been brought back to life.
