A 1986 turbo guards red that has been completely restored. New interior including dashboard (new speedo showing 1400km), fresh paint, new engine (non matching). Car looks and drives like new. 4speed.
I would appreciate price estimates for such a car since I am new to 930 world!
Thanks!!

Way too high, what is the history of the car? Accidents? Why new interior?
Market rewards originality and complete documentation of history.

Not sure $100k is way to high- depends on quality of resto work and cars history. Original cars are generally worth more than restored ones but it really depends on what you want to drive. I would be worried about the combination of non-matching engine along with all of the work- you'll need a good explanation of what happened. If some bought a pile of parts and threw the car back together $100k is way to high, not worth buying at any price, too many nice cars with good histories available.

Hi
It seems that yes a lot of new parts were added to a fresh repaint and de-rust comprehensive job, new engine dashboard etc...as far as history no accidents, but simply a car that needed major tlc as the sun is a scorcher here in Kuwait. Would appreciate any price guidelines as to what the car is actually worth if 100 is too high

In the U.S. , I'd say 65k to 70k, but I'd spend a little more and get a nicer car

Dont buy it the non matching engine is not a desirable thing.

If it was a U.S muscle car that you want as a project and install a crate engine that is a entirely different thing.

$100,000 is good price for a all original car in good order. I say this car is worth more than $65,000 but less than a $100,000. Hard to say without pictures.
