That was the case about three or four years ago. 964's were significantly less expensive than earlier cars. I was not aware that it is still the norm, but I haven't been following prices on 3.2's.
One explanation is that the 964 had a reputation for expensive engine leaks. Search for head gasket and you'll probably find all the info you need. It's my opinion that this issue is exaggerated. I would take a 964 over just about any 3.2 any day.
