the hot reflectors on the wheels? And the beautiful welds? And to top it off, the instructions have a leather carrying case!

Looks just like the aluminum verision. Same tube diameters and everything.

Porsche found the magic bullet for ripping people off. Not saying I'm taking the seller's word for it on the original price of the bike, but if that thing sold for over a 1000 bucks originally, that person got supremely shafted. I can see some DA bits on it, maybe Ultregra hubs with CXP-33 rims. Wow, a fat heavy Kalloy stem and an aluminum fork. That frame was probably made by Haro, looks kinda like a road-version of their cheap Escape MTB frames. Never seen anodized titanium with welds that big before :D . Lets get this frame for our most F-ed up bike build!

his dad paid 7000 for that? yeah right. Porsche needs to stick to cars, that is one ugly bike. The only thing on it I see that I really like is the fork (if it is titanium). I would have at lost thought being a porsche that the stem would have a hidden tightening bolt to the fork.

Those are some nasty looking welds for a titanium bike. Looks like aluminum to me.
