By "upgrading," do you mean wandering back in the years to the torsion bar cars we discuss in this forum? If so, a Blue Chip '87-9--a truly best-of-the-best. Unless, of course, you're looking to pound out a lot of miles.

If you look at photo 9, the reflection reveals the seller to be ... none other than ... Yoda!

With $80 k you can get a very good if not great aircooled coupe.
Depends on your likes- the g50 (87-89) series mentioned is great buy and seems no end in sight for appreciation. 964s coupes almost impossible to find unless a AWD model or higher miles over 100k. Earlier years 993 great value also if you like that model.
GL in your search.
side note: for $80 k you could find a higher miles 997 GT3 or a moderate mileage 996 GT3 since you are used to the more modern 911s and would get a very different experience from your C4S.

Don't forget to budget $3,000 to $5,000 a year on maintenance. Some years less and some years more.
