Maybe this will help as another piece of information. From the latest edition of Excellence-page 71

Depending on the car itself, If it has original paint, any accident damage, deferred maintenance etc and what was done. $55k is the going rate maybe a bit more. If leak down and compression numbers are solid I would say add $10k assuming all else is good.
They made only 655 92 C2/C4 coupes in US spec and these are harder to find in good condition. There are so few coupes left so don't sell it short. There are more lookers/lurkers than sellers but most I see are in far from decent condition irrespective of miles and usually need $20k+ in maintenance and or cosmetic work on top of their $55k+ selling price. The numbers posted In Excellence and hagerty do not reflect this and most who I see spend $55k on a coupe end up dropping another $30-50k into them eventually.
The $30k for average condition coupe is laughable and I would buy them all day long at that price assuming they aren't damaged goods.

Also have a look here, https://bringatrailer.com/porsche/964/ ... scroll down 1 page and find results of 154 BAT 964 sales back to 2015 ... Carrera 2, 5-speed coupes are bringing strong money this year.

So it being an early engine 91 964 with 30k less miles than the 92 on what appears to be an original engine IMO makes it worth less than a 92 with higher miles. The 92 also has a nice selection of upgrades. If it came with the original parts it would be worth more for having both. The 91 on BaT could have any number of miles considering the fill respray. So this is strong money for a car with lots of ???. Figure if the engine needs a top end for a 91 adding another $20k min in the future on a rebuild so all in for a min of $75k.

pay a reputable shop to do a PPI. if the car truly needs nothing, and you can back that up with their 3rd party data, this is more than a $50k car. This is not questioning you, but helping you stand out from the pack. People who know these cars don't believe the "needs nothing" claims of sellers. Post it in a couple places and be patient. I sold a 94 C2 9 mos ago and several people questioned the pricing. Had several low ball offers, then 3 weeks after posting someone called and bought the car that day. It only takes 1 buyer. And there isn't a lot of inventory to choose from...

Thanks Matt, I was aware of your car. One of the best examples sold recently.

exactly, and that would even be pushing it, I’d think $40,000 from the pics and the color , $55,000 for 165,000 mile 964 is dreamer Territorry , people keep quoting BAT as if it’s simple and easy selling a car on BAT. The guys getting top dollar there are getting it based not only on their cars but on their reputation.
