Default 964 ROW question

wanted to get your opinion on a ROW 964 vs regular C2 and RS.
The ROW is sunroof delete.
would you pay more for a ROW over a regular C2/
would you pay more for an RS over a ROW if the RS had a sunroof?

Thanks
Chas

Not all ROW cars are sans sunroof.

Another big part of ROW for me are the non-airbag cars. I'm not a fan of the airbag wheel, old airbags and it's illegal to remove in most places (possibly denied insurance coverage in a claim).

I assume you must be referring to a RSA w/a S/R not a real RS

i guess the paper trail might be better, that would be the only reason i can think of to prefer the USA car.
the Japanese row cars are usually impeccable when they reach N America. low mileage and optimal maintenance. and real headlights. : )

I alway love the none sun roof car! RSA is not even close to The real 964RS.
The ROW 964 none Sun roof is as close to a RS in the real world out out paying over $300k!!!

I wouldn't pay more for a ROW car if it was pretty much the same exact car as the US C2 Coupe (minus the roof).

However I've seen some cool equipped cars that are worth a premium coming from Japan...rare colors like Maritime Blue, Rubystone & rare plaid sport seats to name a few.

A ROW and USA/CAN C2 from the same model year are nearly identical in every fashion. The model year differences between a ROW MY93 and ROW MY90 are far greater than any country related differences. The regulatory (all cosmetic BS) changes are more of PITA than anything. And of course the M650 optioned model is worth more regardless of country of origin.

Non-Sunroof is a must ... sun roof cars is too heavy and too common...

^ not really, a 964RS, RSR is worth the hassle
a C2 no matter how low mile and how clean it is just a C2. while production number is low, it will never be a collectable per se.
