1985 Testarossa on Craigslist -66K miles $36,000

Jump on it! That is not a lot of miles, I have apx. 50K on mine, if it has not been owned by a Don Johnson want to be. Twenty two years by the same person! Sounds to good to be true to me. PPI and go for it.

 

If no major problems, I would go for and drive , drive!
Have dings ?... I don't care, I would use as grocery getter... and, one more time... drive.

 

Same owner for 22 yrs ? That's always a positive in my book.

Wonder if any major issues he knows about and is just tired to bring it back to life ?

Could be a good buy, 66,000 miles is nothing to be scared about on a tr engine....what are the odds it has the original diff and fuse box

 

At 66k miles, I'd bet its had everything pretty much worked out of it.

Probably still wont sell... Sad.

 

No trades or bs $36,000 John

what please means this " bs" ?

really don´t know and would be glad to get this explained from someone. thanks

 

bull****

 

Go have a look at it. Let us know. If you don't buy someone else here might be interrested.
Is it red or black interior?

 

Do you know what kind of wheels/tires it has - I would assume the metric TRX type?

That could be an issue if you want to drive it many miles, as they are hard to find.

 

Pictures show original wheels.

 

Right, but there were both 16" and metric single bolt wheels, IIRC.

Mine has the metrics, and I had to look for over two years to buy the rear tires.

 

$36K is a great price - if it doesn't need $10k-$20K in deferred maintenance performed 'right now'....

 

That is indeed a critical issue - more important really than the miles.

 

Dude, forget all that. This would be the PERFECT car to buy and then take totally apart to bring up to primo condition. Drop the engine, do the major, fix anything and everything there. I'd love to do this in my own garage. However, theres a Maranello in the way right now :-(

 

You could easily spend over $100K that way - creating what would still be a $50K car.

Wish that car was local to me... I'd be there right now!

 

Fixed it for ya.

 

Still can't get over it, can ya?

What was that, 6 years ago? Still whining because you couldn't bully me into buying your pos 328?

 

Life is short, go get it!!

I remember a TR selling for 95K this year...

 

Wow for 36k sounds like a good deal.

 

Did it have 66,000 miles on it and a $60,000 +- restoration?

I just don't see how you can get the money back from restoration of this.

Of course, different story if you just want to spend the money on something for yourself...
