My crystal ball says that the recent trend will recede somewhat as this happens and some move on to other alternatives. I got interested in 993’s in 2007 when this happened to muscle cars. My 67 Z28 increased from $27,500 to $110,000 in 8 years. I could afford it, but I was too scared to drive it. Bought my 10,000 mile 96 C2 for $28,000 on eBay and my 12,500 mile 97 C2S on Rennlist for $50,000 in 2008.
And they are both SO much more fun to own than another few shares of stock!

Tarek307 keeps coming up with them somehow, I’ve seen him post 4 WB 993s this past month.. @Tarek307 do you have a factory converting 993s to WB or what? Lol 😂

Eco 101: These cars will hold their values and probably keep rising until interest rates start increasing. Enthusiasts will hang on to their cars but speculators will sell, increasing supply. Same will happen with real estate, art, etc.

are you saying you believe it sold for something in that price range, with 50k miles, in a couple of days?

i could be wrong, but it still appears to be available to me.

Well.... I can’t say I have ever heard someone say they didn’t like the looks and lines of a 993. These cars are just art in motion.

yep, and you always leave them in much better shape than when you bought them! Good luck with the sale!

Well I have no idea what it sold for. What I'm saying is I saw it listed a couple of days ago for 129,800 and now.....

Thanks Onami....I loved your AS 993 and I'm sure you're missing it! I see you have a Macan S....I picked up my Daughter a Macan Turbo (Silver on Red of course!) after she graduated from UofT but we haven't been able to drive it into Canada from the US....so I get to drive it down here in Naples...can't let that sit too long . I'm amazed at the performance and ride. Looking at a GT3 MT to replace the Raspberry Muffin.
