I'm really disappointed with those Excellence "values" articles. The current '92 model year value chart error is understandable. But, not the ongoing errors in the text of the the article. Most noteably , they mix up the 951 and 951S information. And, more than that, they regurgitate the same story year after year, making changes only to the first paragraph. I suppose these articles are good for first time readers but are of very little value to those of us with multi-year subscriptions....

Todd,

Good point, when I sold my 1976 911 Turbo, it was the same story year after year....buy the latest and best version you can obtain... However us early Turbo folks (especially the ones that had maintained our cars and improved the few manufacturing short comings) were left with lower values on cars that had essentially changed the paradigm of performance cars.

Excellent point, no pun intended. I have written them before complaining of the verbiage staying the same year after year after year. I even offerred to update their form article. If enough of us complain, they will eventually either make Bruce come up with some new info, or hire someone else to write the article.
