Thought you guys would like to see these sitting in their natural environments
The 964 has an original owner that built a little adobe shelter around it. Low miles and he might sell it. I can't imagine I could afford it. I don't think there is a person on the planet that doesn't know 911 values. Cool find though.
the 190e belongs to a friend of mine and it has had valve collision I am tempted to buy it for cheap but I am intimidated by the cost and complexity of the engine rebuild.
It is the right color for a Senna Replica!
As for the 964, if you don't ask you will never know....

Valves are generally pretty cheap.
And yeah, ask about the 911. You could join the ranks of people on GRM forums who probably could afford a 911 if they really wanted to, but they don't really want to as bad as people who REALLY cant afford one, but they stumble into one at below market value anyway because... irony? Anyway, it's worth a shot!!
And if his number is low but you don't like it anyway, PM it to me....

On the 911 if you have a price you can offer and actually have the cash in hand that day...you might get lucky. Of course that applies more to someone who "needs" to sell the car, not "might" sell it. That tends to be the sort of thing where everyone wants to buy it, but nobody can actually come up with the money. Make sure you know what you're getting into though...if it's been sitting for a while and/or doesn't run it could easily need several thousand dollars of engine parts alone (seriously...look up the cost of a set of main bearings for that engine), and some of the work you really shouldn't do yourself unless you really know what you're doing.
At least the Porsche is inside a building...leaving the Mercedes sitting out in the weeds is criminal.

It's in California, or I'd seriously ask about getting it myself.
I would totally rock that 964; it's even guards red.
I know someone looking for a 964. If you get the info for it I'll pass it along. Theyre in Simi too so pretty close.
