I stumbled on this 928 on PHX Craigslist:

It is this car that sold at Barrett-Jackson in 09.

I'm hoping to get some better pics. I'm curious about the possible value of this car considering its apparent condition, miles, and the fact that its a Weissach Edition. Any feedback would be appreciated.

According to Haggerty:

According to NADA:

The Weissach factor does add, but use the numbers from Barrett-Jackson as a guide.

It's a rare bird for sure. Auto is less valuable. Condition will be the biggest determinate of value. Weissachs generally came with 3-pieces of matching luggage.

Our local (late) Dennis Szermet would had a 5-speed with matching luggage, cowbay boots, and anything else he could find that had the same color scheme.

Nice cars.

I think they are special if you are a collector. Some people go crazy over pascha seats in other early models, sorry Ed, but these have provenance built in. They are not performance oriented, only for the purists, but I think they are undervalued. Think 356 with luggage fastened to that chrome rack on the rear. It'll never get that kind of respect, but this is a rare piece. I've also seen some with a number plate on the dash; if it was done properly, I don't see why that couldn't be part of "restoration" if you bought it.

Not so, we have our own Texas Auto trans market leverage pushing up the values...esp for Weissach IIRC....

It does not come with service records. Thats kind of a bummer.

AO

Been hitting the sauce I see...

I find it curious that the Haggerty site say "The factory states exterior is white sand and the leather is light grey and magenta" Light grey and magenta? I would not consider the Weissach interior to be those colors. Is that actually what Porsche called those colors?

SMTCapeCod

Actually no. Roger has quite a stable going, prefers autos and special editions, and seems willing to buy a car he wants even if maybe it isn't the optimal value.

AO

Roger is an anomaly. As a Brit, he's already struggling to stay on the right side of the road, so it's no wonder he prefers cars that are simpler to drive. (You know i'm just bustin' yer chops Rog!)

Hey... if people want to value 3-pedal cars lower than 2-pedal cars, I'm all for it. Nothing would make me happier

Now, if only Porsche had made an automatic GT.

SteveG

Yeah, I think that is whacked. I think brown or "braun" would be in there somewhere. As to whether the colors are available for any other MY, calling Nicole. I'm thinking this color combination (at least the interior) is not available elsewhere. She probably could answer this question.

Always difficult to value these cars. About 225 were actually built as one of mine is number 219. The luggage set was three pieces and not two. However two is better then none.
If the car is mechanically sound and all maintenance is up to date it should be worth $10k to $15k depending how it is marketed.
Needs the Weissach crest with the number on it - contrary to popular belief the crest came in an envelope (also included a certificate saying which number out of 205) with the car and it was up to the dealership/owner if it was to be affixed to the car.
I have about 7 sets of luggage with some spares as well.

SMTCapeCod

Sorry but the interior tone is too similar to the '80s Masers...

I was about to say "but a nice original 928 is still a nice find"...then I noticed the stripes in the pic?

Roger, do you have the luggage in dark brown?
