Looking at fleabay completed items it seems like there have been several coupes that have sold for fairly reasonable prices in the last 2-3 months..from the $mid teens to $mid 20's and now there is like one coupe on there currently and it's sitting at $mid-30's. Has the market changed that quickly?

 

^Yes

 

You're talking coupe manual c2??

I see a bunch of tiptronics, c4, high mileage or other but the nice coupe c2 manuals sell at way more than mid 20s.

Do you have links??

 

Ah, good point. I wasn't making that differentiation..just 964 coupe...suppose that does narrow the field quite a bit considering..especially the Tip ones. For me personally, the C4 is more attractive than the C2 so that one throws me every time

 

This one seems like it's worth stretching your budget for.

Not sure what to make of this; converted '87 into a 964 RS convertible? Frankomobile? Cheap though if the mechanicals are fine.

This will sell in days.

Unfortunately for me, a US car has 11% exchange rate (compared to zero in the last few years), 6.1% duty and 15% tax.. Making the car over $50k
Plus it will need a few things for maintenance (as ALL cars do) like eventually reseal the engine, sunroof and door seals.

Makes it too expensive for a Canadian to buy.

But the car is crazy clean from the pictures, you can clearly see the interior plastics have no scratches on them especially for a 100k miles car.

 

Beachboy, I see your point, but if you don't act soon, all the good ones will all be heading in this direction^!
Exchange rates can be a bummer either way!

 

It seems like the only difference is really the duty. I would think a Canadian would have this same car listed for 42k CAD, right?

 

This one also has RUF body parts, and in stunning Amethyst Metallic:

No there's more to it. When you buy in Canada you don't have GST of 5%.. Also the PST is either none (like Alberta) or like
In Quebec, you can declare $1 if the car is between 10 and 25 years of age.

When you import, you have to pay both taxes on the full price paid.. And with exchange and duty, that's a lot of money (totals over 30% for Quebec)...
