Early being 75-77, I think they will level off for awhile.
I sold my restored blue 88 930 for 82k two yrs ago, it was flipped quickly for 93k, now it's back on the market for 85k, only 100mi put on it during that period, wasting away with various dealers.

how many miles on that 930 i wonder?
my online research for "asking prices" seems to be all over the place. Seen a low miles (29k) 87 930 for 105k, then a 90k miles non-g50 late 80s 930 for 139k ask...high miles '88 930 for 75k ask and so on.

I have a '89 that I keep thinking of selling because I've become more interested in Ferraris. Each time I consider trading, I go drive the car and realize how special it truly is.
It's one of the most thrilling, engaging drives ever created and will continue to be highly valued for years to come. It's a legendary piece of Porsche history.
The last '89 to sell at auction went for $140k with approx 55k miles.
Correction or no correction, these cars have deserved the rise in value they've had. There is simply nothing like them and any dip in pricing will be temporary.

I would think that more high quality restoration work and repairs will get done on some of the marginal cars because the owners can rationalize putting the $ into them with the value they will then have. That has the potential to knock prices down a bit when more cars come on the market, but should be good in the long run.

Thanks Skipp! What these results tell me is that these (and all 930) cars are:
1. Market correction or not, prices are indeed "all over the map" but still expensive, the least being about $100k or so. I know some have posted that there have been some sold in the $85k range but where I live, those can't be found. Anything under $100k here is a bit beat up, no records, needs work...
2. Records, COA, etc. are key but even clean ones maintained and fitted with upgrades are still commanding a huge price...

I agree. I looked for the '89 that sold for 140k with 55k to 60k miles, but haven't been able to find it again. It's been a couple months since the late winter auctions where that occurred. I can't recall which auction house sold it, but I paid close attention to that one because it was similar mileage to my '89.
Keep 'em

Some of the 70s era cars have softened in general, but the 930 was a poster car for kids in the 70s and 80s. There's plenty of time left for the appreciation curve fueled by teenage dreams being fulfilled. I'm 47 and was lucky to buy mine during the recession. The 930 was the car to lust after as I came of age in the mid 80s. 930, 308, countach, testarossa.
The Testarossa drives like a pig, the countach is 350k+,the 930 and 308/328 are the fun ones. I've got both of those and would like to have the Countach one day.
