There out there for FAR less, more like $250,000 area. We all know they will not get 700,000 for it, but you can ask.

Is the 959 still at Barrier? Bellvue location?

I agree.. someone buy one and bring it on down.

I wouldn't mind snapping some pics. Hell I'd probably settle for just seeing one in person.

That leather looks seriously tired. Someone is at the crack-pipe if they think they'll get anywhere near $700k for that car....

One of the first vehicles I have been in love with since the day I saw it. Lots of loves come and go, but this one has ALWAYS stayed!

great snaps, Jason.

that car is on consignment - in defense of barrier, (i am biased since they just scored me a new 911 - pics & post to follow shortly) that car is on consignment.

jason did capture the head unit on the $40k stereo upgrade benchmark put in...now let's discuss that addition to the 959. 8-track player in a ferrari daytona anyone?

That stereo is entirely out of place, IMO. It would take 40k off the price, if I were a buyer.

Maybe the seller just needed to make some room in the garage for a few months.

I hope it is at Barrier long enough for me to go by and take a look at it. I don't think I have ever seen a real one in person.

Ditto.

$710k car isn't realistic for me.
I'll be happy to have 993 Turbo and few other super cars instead of just one vehicle.

By the way, is this what Mr.Gates went through so much trouble to get it out of the US Custom? (w/ help from Mr.Clinton?)
