OT: what’s going on with car prices Options

[draganc]

Folks,

Is it just me, or did pre 1990 Porsche prices are going crazy?

Have been looking for a 911 outlaw/RS clone project but haven’t
seen a 911 under $25k for the past 6 months (mainly East coast).

Extended my search to the LAX area, even worse. Limited supply
and “crazy” prices. I guess I just answered my own questions.

Looks like 914 and 944 are also going steadily up.

What’s the forums take?

A rising tide raises all ships, no?


Yup, all those folks who missed out on the 911 bubble have run to others.. 914, 924/44/68 and even 928s. Guess folks have lots of extra money to have sit in a 2nd/3rd/4th car these days. I think 356 prices have stabilized... so that Speedster that you missed out on 10 years ago at $250k is still about $250k (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

The other anomaly to me is the 997 GT3 cars.. seems they were about $120K new and are still about $100-120K used.

An going forward, somehow almost every "new" Porsche is a "1 of 1" considering the myriad of colors and options that are available. Ugh.. I hate to read those ads in a few years as to why someone's Panamera or Cayenne is somehow more exclusive than the next.

I had an SC back when they were 10-15K cars.. and luckily I fended off the rising values by selling it while it was still a 10-15K car (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)
