PCA ad Valuation

[gmarken1357]

I was looking at the PCA classifieds in Panorama and the cars condition is rated 1 thru 5. However I do not see what the definition of the condition is. I know 1 is good 5 is bad, but other than that nothing. Where is this located?

It used to be at the beginning of the listings for "The Mart" but I guess they took it away. Kind of odd. Maybe it's hidden within the listings - I'll look further because I'm curious.

Not sure why it's being resized down so much but here's the current description (you can click on the image and open it to a larger size):

By the way, I found that by logging in to my PCA account and going to the "place an ad" link in the classifieds section and scrolling down a bit.

I believe they use the Hagerty condition scale.

5. RUN either: away or to your Bank for $$$$$$$$ to "restore"
4. Give it to your teenage son to "fix up" will keep him busy and out of trouble for a few years
3. Your wife just MIGHT....let you do it
2. Your ex-wife's lawyer will buy it our from under you
1. Seriously???? you really want to have a car, you can never do anything but LOOK at. ????

But a pretty good summation!

Good info for all since practically every survey we get 5 is the best and 1 is El Baddo. So do remember this post when looking , you want a Numero Uno or Dos grading for your next Porsche -- just saying.
