What's a nice 928 GT worth?

Who isn't sensitive about pod and dash cracks?
The trouble is a perfect original pod and dash can start cracking after a few months of exposure to the sun, and there doesn't seem to be any way to know how many months are left on a dash, so intelligent valuation rarely happens. In practice I don't think 10% of overall price is far off between a perfect pod and dash and even the slightest visible damage.
The main thing holding many of us back from fixing the pod and dash is a solid idea on how long the fix is good for, what it will look like in two to five years.

Yes, dash condition is paramount when selling any car.
Also be sure the glass is perfectly transparent, dirty glass has a real
effect on buyers. It's all first impressions. And don't talk to much ! (i just flipped a Bronco, sold in 15 hours from post for asking, i couldn't believe it )
Anyway, many of those views on this car were rennlisters,
which probably really helped the bidding.
I personally think a GT like this should be a $40k car all day when you compare what an uncomfortable '87-'89 3.2 911 will bring. Oh but it's got that G-50 trans !? bucket of bolts..
The GT will suck it's headlights out passing a contemporary NA 911 on the freeway and look way better doing it !
$24K should be the price for one in need of minor restoration as with the air suckers. So price was right on.

This is a great topic, so glad I bought back my 1991 GT. Factory flared fenders on an almost mint car must make this a rare beauty.
