When I searched for my 964 I have always used the following search engine (I've copied the US/english version).
Basically it screens all used car websites from the country you're looking at. So if you select Europe, it will show adds from mobile.de as well.

Price wise I noticed that Germany is slightly more expensive than for example, The Netherlands, Belgium, France, Denmark, ... France seemed to have the better prices.

So if you're looking for a funky color, this is a good start imo.

964 C2 Targa 3,534
964 C4 Coupé 13,353
964 C4 Targa 1,329
964 C4 Jubilee Coupé 911
964 Turbo 3.3: 3,660
964 Turbo 3.6 1,437
964 Carrera RS 3.6 Coupé 2,282

I know US production numbers are somewhat accurate but global?

Here’s Stone Grey, not all that common either from what I can tell.

Actual production numbers of 964 targas is quite low. I have gone over this numerous times and come up with the same numbers each time.

1033 total imported to the US and 2294 made for the RoW market. So a total of 3327 units made. Making it quite rare. I agree though I have seen more red targas than anything. I had a black over black 90 for a while but sadly let it go for $28k It was an all original car but had 100k miles. My friend has a red over gray with sports seats and deviated piping. Nothing beats the stone gray though. Always a sight.👍

i have sent rudy a message to see if he can give me some insight into his shipping fees, but does anyone else have a feel for expected costs to get a car here from europe? some of the color combos available have me considering importing a car. just worried it might tack on so much, it becomes hard to justify.
