Post Thoughts on 94 widebody?

Friends, saw my first one the other day (I have seen America Roadsters, but never a coupe). I have seen several advertised at a pretty hefty premium, thoughts? WIll they continue to command that premium?

THanks!

The C4 Coupe USA only widebodies or Turbolooks as they are officially known are very rare and as long as they are in good condition they will always command a higher price simply because of their rarity and they do have a little bit of history. There was a reason they existed beyond just selling a type of auto. That also helps. By the way they are only C4s in coupe form. If you saw a C2 then it is a conversion. Oh one other thing they are actually 93 models VINs and papers show 1994 models. The VINs were changed under M718.
Ciao,

Hi "J"

I've got one! Love it of course. Not sure how many were produced - estimates vary between 250 ish to 450 ish (right Adrian...?) They are actually Turbos without the turbo if you see what I mean. Apparently a way of using up spare turbo bodies before the intro of the 993 in the US. As Adrian says they're all C4's and all American models.

I'd be interested in knowing what one of these is really worth on the market but you see so few come up for sale that its hard to get any reliable guide. Mine was originally bought in California and immediatly exported to Taiwan where I bought it from a friend of mine 2 years ago with 9,000 miles on it. Its had the suspension lowered and 18" BBS's added by the last owner - all done very well but I'm half thinking of returning it to closer to standard spec.

Trying to attach a pic to this but I've had a few problems with this in the past.....


Hope this helps

Regards
