Looking at the ad, I do not think it is being represented as made in Germany.  It is IN Mexico, after all.. Top listing says a '55 356, which I think is inappropriate, as does not say replica.  Further down all is revealed.  Not that anybody should be fooled that this might be a 356.  For  a "new" engine as claimed, it looks pretty shabby in there.  Not a fan of the big fat black rubber moldings on the windows, but overall, it looks pretty nice, and very well might be.  If you take delivery in Nogales, be sure to check the frunk for illegals . . .  Just sayin'

There were not many of these made and apparently they (the REAL ones) are quite collectable. Here are a few pics of the Engine of the real deal( wow it has a baby sh*t Gelb Oil Filter too!). And the picture of Gizelle, the proud owner of a Continental cab bears a striking resemblance to Crocodile Dundee from Deown Unduh...no wait, that IS Crocodile Dundee in Drag!356-Continental-1.5l-1500cc-flat-four-cylinderProsche-356-Continental-Enthusiasts-1024x1378

Unless he just changed it due to scrutiny, it says "Replica" in the eBay title.

Very Good Looking Porsche Continental Replica

The large text isn't me yelling at you, it's just copied over from eBay that way.

WOW...it obviously has caught the eye of a number of BIDS...now OVER $26K.

I would have love to "steal it" at 16/17K but 26K in less than 24 hours is just plain REMARKABLE.

Banzai - That is just further proof that we made a good decision to invest in a very unique product that we mainly bought to thoroughly enjoy! As this advert for the Continental also shows is that there is a replica for everyone. I took a ride in my speedie with my GoPro mounted on the rack last weekend to just capture the car going through a nice stretch of local shoreline and bluff drive. After a brief stop to visit a Nam Vet friend of mine at his Beach curio store I started up the car and the GoPro and a couple walked up asking me lots of questions about the speedster. The wife says " my husband wanted to steal your car he loves it so much", and they both were very interested in finding one for themselves. Great lead in to talk about the SOC and get them excited and hooked up with Therons web site to find a speedie of their own. SOC and speedster ownership has been a great experience for me, but what really makes it is the members of this club, bar none. Its the amazing knowledge shared, the banter, and the incredible support you get that makes this club a solid 10 for me.
