BTW, here is an example of one of the homologated '76 Carrera 2,7 911s. The description is wrong in that there were only 113 coupes produced and they were sold into more markets than just D and CH.

You can certain tell my bias, but hopefully you will have an opportunity to see and drive some of these various models and make up your own mind what to spend your money on.

Be sure to check the Early S forum for car events/shows in your area so you can see some of these cars for yourself and speak with the owners. Every week there is a fantastic Cars and Coffee in Irvine. Many classic Porsches show up for this event.
Lots of useful info. Much appreciated. Have been to C & C in Irvine a few times. About 40 min., but will have to visit for sure before I make the plunge.

Beautiful vehicle. Most certainly out of my league. I haven't been to their facility, but I plan on going there just to look and get educated. They certainly do wonderful work, but I think they are at the top end $ wise.

You never know until you call. The market for some of these higher items is not as strong as you might expect. I know I picked up my own for a song and a dance.
