You can get good 951's for $7000 if you are lucky. What's so special about this one? i say it's insanity.

Nothing......the car is in Canada and nice 951's go for 20-25k up there! Still a little pricy but I've seen them go for that in Canada.He must have forgotten to say Canadian funds, cause it ain't worth 25k US!

He must be on crack if he thinks that 951 will sell for 25k. I don't care how much I like this car I won't spend that much money on an old car especially when they go anywhere from 5-12k. I'd rather get a 930.

There's a used $1700 951 head up there too. Free listing day, I think that brought out a lot of overpriced stuff.

Whatever he gets, I hope it's high. I'd like to see our cars trading hands for more than what I paid.

BTW, 951's sell between 14,000cdn and 20,000cdn average here in Vancouver.

I got mine for 10,000cdn (7,500usd at the time) and I know someone who bought a car out from under me for $8,900cdn (6,500usd) that was a cherry except for the interior. That was the car I SHOULD have gotten.

There was a Silver rose in Calgary that was priced at around 22K$ Canadian. I really hope he got that for his car . Again I'm in the same boat as Rich: I like to see high prices in my area... now that I already have one.
