What are your thoughts on this? Appears to have had paint work done on the rear fenders too...

I can't imagine this price a year ago. But today, anything is possible. Considerations:
  • Asset inflation caused by central banks around the world printing money with abandon.
  • To illustrate, low mileage good condition WBs had trouble clearing mid-to-high 80s pre-COVID. Today you can't touch one with anything less than low-$90s to start, and many cross the 100k mark.
  • It has a top end rebuild which takes away the most pricey worry of 993 ownership.
A year ago, this is a $60k car tops. Back then folks were still slightly discounting Targas over coupes. Today, who cares? The discount for cabs is still present but who knows for how long...

I think I will probably never have another 993.

Remember to add buyer's premium, the overall price is pretty insane when you tack on another 5%. I was thinking of listing my own 993 targa, with over 20k fewer miles and more stuff, for mid-$70's just a couple of weeks ago, at that price I thought it was a stretch. The market has gone bonkers.

Aargh - I'm in the market and live in NC - but want a stick so I have to pass on this one.

There’s so much fiat money floating around there’s no limit until the party’s over. And, it only takes 2 people to want the same car.
It prices me out of the market, but good for the sellers. 🤷‍♂️

So on BaT right now there is a Beck 550 Spyder at 50K. It has 6 days to go. I am like what is happening? I had a Beck Spyder 15 years ago or maybe more and I don't understand the market when a normal body 993 will barely bring 50K+. Unless it is real low miles.

I wonder how much my Tip S with 113k miles is worth

Why wait until spring? It's not as if this were a house driven by the school calendar.
BTW, post a pic even if you aren't selling. We very much are purveyors of car **** here.
