Poorly written ad but the term typically means no power accessories, i.e. windows, locks sunroof etc.. in this case I would assume the windows as they are standard crank.

Also, car appears to be euro spec judging from the rear bumper and particular cloth insert on seats.


Good luck!

No pics of engine bay, looks like it has some weight in there anyway. At that price would be really surprised if it ran.

Wow. Thank you the 10,000 dollar 911 does exist. I'm from NJ so this could be a good find! I wonder what he means by "no power".
Plus they are targas. For real track use, get a Coupe.

Hey All,

I've decided to move on from the 80's 911 as my street/track car. I do appreciate all the input and help and I loved the search. I know one day that 911 will be in my garage.

After some life guidance and coaching from Tito, I'm thinking that an e30 or e36 fits my budget and life right now. I'm 28 years old and looking for a second car that I can get into motorsports with.

Having said that please let me know if you know of any for sale in the area.

All the best
Mike

If you're looking to get into DE/racing/track events, then a E36 or E46 M3 is a better option than a 80s vintage 911 IMO. Esp with the prices going ridiculous right now.

Not to slight the E30/36 cars, but a 944 spec or Spec (smash) Miata shouldn't be overlooked either imho and have relatively low entry points for racing.
