Sports Car Market, Current value guide Options

[orthobiz]

I did a search on the site, there was a thread in 2005 and 2009…

2005:
SCM article

2009:
SCM 2009

Anyway, no new article but a little booklet comes with my annual subscription and it lists 914 values. I think there's been a definite uptick in 914 values reflected in the market I see, not reflected in the little handbook SCM gives out.

I think the values are reflective of the buyer's demographics. The folks that lusted after the muscle cars of the 60s, or the early 911s, are now of the age that they want that car they couldn't afford back in the day. Hence, the prices go up till that group ages enough so they are no longer the main demographic, then something else sees the uptick in prices.

Since the 911S was the top of the line and was rarer than the other models, it went up the most. Anyone that actually has driven an S in town will tell you that an E is a better driver here in the USA. The S was an autobahn star.

Then again, I could be wrong?

My 69S was an Incredible car, I can't imagine an E being better. But then again I drove it like it was meant to be driven. I had it up to 165mph & it had a lot left, but the door frames started flapping. That car destroyed anything on the road once I got out of 1st gear
