I think an RX350 is kill yourself status. Come on guise. Lets be real here.
FX35? Or better FX50? That's another story.
I'd rather roll in my crown vic than a RX350, at least it has some kind of "history" behind it. RX350 is your asian step moms car.
i go to a local korean market from time to time because of their food and they’re cleaner. That parking lot it’s littered with rx350’s like ford trucks at gas stations by i95 in bumfuck nowhere.

$15000
95k miles
2004 OEM Z06 shocks installed. I also have single adjustable Koni yellows that I removed.
MGW short shifter, still have OEM unit.
All control arm bushings replaced with polyurethane (Oct ’17)
Rock chips on front bumper and low on side skirts.
Comes with 2 sets of OEM Z06 wheels (1 set w/ PSS 1 set w/ Hoosiers). 2 sets of base C5 “wagon” wheels (one set with all season tires mounted for winter/rainy season use).
I also have a hitch, and a HF trailer.
Only thing keeping you from experiencing the glory that is an SSR corvette is a set of oem control arms, which is a few hours of work and you can recoup the cost by selling these ones with the poly bushings.
Motivated seller. Please don't hesitate to contact me with any questions you have.
Can send many more pictures upon request. I'll update this post with more after work tonight.

16 Grand for a 62K mile 944S. Needs some new front seats and a dash. The car is an appreciating asset at this point.
1990 with 133k, all the big maintenance items recently done by previous owner:
TB, WP, clutch, resurface flywheel, torque tube bearings, shifter and shifter bushings, sunroof gears, and typical glovebox repair.
He also installed a VERY extensive sound system full of Alpine gear including sub in the spare tire well, DSP/EQ, separates,etc, etc plus a period correct Alpine alarm with power lock control.
I worked some on the cosmetics including PDR, completely refinished set of 968 wheels with brand new tires (<300 miles) and painting the headlight covers/nose panel to remove stone chips. Airbag warning light disabled (I was planning to install a Momo Prototipo). Power window switches disassembled and cleaned.
Remaining issue is to address the a/c system inop (not sure why, didn't get to it yet).
Just received a complete polish of the exterior paint by Sean (StageOne)
$11k
(996 4.0L is displacing this, I wasn't really planning on selling but 8 cars...)

Very nice! I think once you got one of these sorted you would be good to go.

Yes it's a cool car. But prepare the lube/sawdust.

I'd be nervous about buying another Turbro for reliability. I'd love to have an S2, doe.

My guess would be that Chris took some time off because he has read the dialogue on this page 1,345 times and decided to spend some of his free time doing something besides beating a horse to death.

Appears to be a Turbro.

Sorry brah I meant Turbro S 247 hp.
Turbro S was the only Turbro in 89 and 90.
I loved my 951. It was a FANTASTIC car. Tons of fun. 80's lag charm...never let me down and I BEAT on it. But I had luck with it I think. Not sure I'd get another.
I miss that stupid thing a lot, .

Yea, true.

I haven't driven one, but I really don't understand the appeal of a front engine Porsche. They look cool I guess, but not really any different from a Starion or FC RX7 or any number of other cars to me. Would E30 5/7 times over 924/944/951/968/whateverothernumbertheyused.

Handling is amazing from the factory and can be improved to with an infinity aftermarket, engine pulls smoothly to redline, perfect erognomics, sweet gayges brah, just a great drive. What every Miata wishes it was.

You should drive one sometime.
Nah, only sees things in black and white.
Objectively, there's nothing better about one than any other FR sports car.
Subjectively, they're a riot with excellent brakes, steering, power, etc. There's "character" and such things that can't detect.
