Post New Excellence with 944 Market Update out today!

Arrived in the snail mail today.

Also, has an interesting article on a 600hp 951 plus a good looking ad by Paragon. Overall, the prices for the 951's are up, slightly but they rate their bang for buck as "reaching its limit--old age and depreciation aren't helping considering its mechanical and electrical compexity adn often costly repair bills."

My car's value according, to Bruce Anderson, is up approx. 1.25% over last year. Hardly any movement.

1986 P 951
Poor $6496
Good $7386
Excellent $9888

How long does it take these things to hit the shelves? Waiting to read that Norwood 951 article is killing me.

Is this the February issue that you're all talking about? I was at Barnes & Noble this weekend and was looking at the issue that they had, and it had a 911 market update... was I looking @ the January issue?

Nope, this is the April 2003 issue he speaks of. February 2003 has the yellow 3.6 911 Turbo, 911 market update, etc. There's a new one that hasn't hit stores yet but the subscribers have received them already!

PorscheG96:

Just clicked your pcaronline page. A)May I have your car and B)does the girl in the pic come with it? Perhaps not in that order. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="eek.gif" />

And C) I see you work at Electronic Arts so why doesn't EA have a college baseball game? LSU Baseball rocks!

Shoot, I haven't received mine yet either. I'm leaving tomorrow for a weeked ski trip; probably before the mail arrives. I would have enjoyed reading it over a beer after a day on the slopes.

I'm in Alabama and got mine yesterday!

Nice to see the article on the 951. Excellence does a pretty good job with 944 coverage.

I have accused my wife of hiding mine, whenever she sees that Excellence has an article on modifying a 944.

I'm in MA too .. hopefully tomorrow. I'm pissed because the last one was hidden on me to give to me for Christmas, but was lost! So now I'm stuck reading the 854hp 911 turbo article over and over.
