I looked for clean 964 C2 manual coupe for one year, then sold it after 3 months due to it not being the right car for me. After driving a GT4, I know that's the right car for me. I would advise to meet up with somebody that has a 964, drive it, and understand the car really well before purchasing one.

Will be interesting to see if it sells for that. It is nearly a clone to mine but mine has 61k miles a '93 and some extras this doesn't have. Mine is also accident free.

I have never seen leak down numbers presented like that. It is usually noted as 5% not 95%. Or is it leaking down 95% LOL

Yours is worth considerably more ... I'd guess 75k plus. If there isn't a buyer now at that price for yours there will be in the near future.

The problem with the RS America's is that you can't tweak them too much because of the value. These cars are so much sweeter when optimized for aesthetics, handling, braking and acceleration ... the price delta on nicely done c2's vs RS America's will shrink as I see it.

Under priced but not enough to make me suspicious. I would trust the PCA to vet their ads enough to weed out scammers..

West Side "ish"

TLG or TRE are a little farther but also reputable.

I visited Robb Francis Motorsports last night https://www.rfsportscars.com/cat_pag...entory_1.shtml
He has a number of air cooled 911''s some nice targas and a couple of coupes. A lot of SC's and 993's as well and some very special long nose cars. He will be updating his website next week with quite a bit more inventory. Nearly 100 cars mostly Porsche in stock.

Although apparently his biggest 964 customers seem to be sending them off to Singer and a place that backdates them up in CT. Might be time to consider bitting the bullet before there are no more left.
