Where in my post did I say my car was for sale? I'm just surprised at it's appreciation. I tell you what though, at those #s, I'm tempted to trade it in for an older Cayman.

Hi.
I know I said mid 10s and I swear I have seen them but I guess they are gone. Like anything else come/go in waves...
My ad is so old that I can't edit anymore and change the asking price.
About me accepting mid 10s for my 964, LOL, yeah it's not going to happen...

If I sell it would be for mid 20's and I don't care what haggerty says.
If you want a deal keep looking and eventually you'll find one. If you want a well documented and maintained specimen you have to pay fair price.
If anyone is interested PM me.

Thanks

For what these 964s are going for now, have you considered a 84-86 911?Great cars! I saw one the other day on autotrader for $25K. If you don't mind poor A/C or manual steering, these are every bit as wonderful as a 964.

Oracle nice c2! I recommend putting it on autotrader and rennlist and it will sell. With the American dollar up in value it should go quick.

is this a flip flop?
Now i am even more confused.

So, all the naysayers want high prices for their personal cars?
I have offered to buy 4-5 cars in the last 2 weeks.
no takers.
0.

Not to mention the ridiculous position of arguing down the value of a car model that you own.

So you can watch your $20k become $10k over the course of 3-4 more years?

I don't know what this thread is about anymore, so here's a bunny with a waffle on his head:

Can I ask why?

I hear a lot of talk about 964 values increasing, but who really knows?
I'm guided more by emotion (that's where all the fun is)... so maybe my car is only worth mid-teems?? But when I look at it, when I drive it, when I see other people react to it... I know that the sum of its parts are definitely worth a whole lot more that any car than its mid-teens price would suggest.

No you wouldn't, or you will be sad that you did.
The owner and I drove both cars over the same loop back to back, and no matter how awesome the Cayman is (and it is), we both came back looking and talking only about the 964. It was really fun watching the Cayman owner's reaction to his first 964 drive.

Vegas993

Anybody ever heard of Supply and Demand?.

canuck964

Vegas993 you are absolutely correct.

The 964's are getting more difficult to find and I believe this will lead to a greater variance in price.

The more desirable examples will increase in value at an exponentially greater amount than neglected ones.

Also it seems like as a whole the 964 is no longer viewed as the "undesirable air-cooled step sister of the 993" and consequently overall prices have started to creep up.

Seems to me by the reaction of some in this tread there are two different kinds of 964 owners (I know I am generalizing here).

One (like myself) would pay over fair market value to purchase the car they have dreamed about as a kid. This is not a rash decision I know. But even in my low income bracket I could afford it and it was for me.

When my kids were young I would spend the equivalent of my Porsche money and more on them. From the Whistler home and ski passes to the wakeboard boat and vacations etc. everything was spent on the kids. So the 964 was for me.

The other 964 purchaser wants to own a Porsche and the 964 was affordable. They don't buy it for nostalgic reasons and will be moving on once funds are available to acquire newer models. These purchasers are very sensitive to price and would not overpay to acquire one.

So maybe everyone is correct. The average price of 964's have increased but there will still be example that can be purchased for less. The more desirable example are now rare and there are purchasers who are willing to pay more for them.
