This is a truly gorgeous and unusual offering. The car was built to the exacting requirements of an original owner with the highest of standards, and it has been maintained carefully and conscientiously over the years. Intermeccanica (http://www.intermeccanica.com/) has been THE premier manufacturer of Porsche replicars for decades. This car is as close to factory condition as could be expected. No scratches, scrapes, dents, or body work. No mechanical problems. All accessories work (windshield wipers, washers, lights, gauges, clock, windows, radio, etc.). Runs wonderfully smoothly. Great sports car blaat. Maintained by Kenny Hill Autowerks (Austin, TX) since 11,000 miles.
This car turns heads every time it is driven. It would turn your head if you saw it drive by. It offers all the enjoyment and pride of ownership of a real Porsche Roadster but for tens of thousands of dollars less; PLUS it has better acceleration and braking than a restoration. This Roadster version offers roll-up windows, plenty of interior legroom and headroom, and excellent visibility.
I have enjoyed owning this car enormously, but I have limited garage space, so I am reluctantly considering selling it. Otherwise I would keep it forever (because it will run forever).
This is truly special car looking for a truly special owner, so please . . . serious inquiries only.

Asking $32,900 cash.
