Bought my 95 C2 with 17500 miles. Have driven it 2000 miles this summer. No issues.

If it had LSD and original sports seats maybe fair, no options $5K - $7K less. Prices are down from 2 years ago. You're buying from a friend, not full retail.

Figure on a new suspension if it's original.

Note I bought my 95 C2 with 29K miles three years ago for around $60K. No LSD or sports seats, original shocks (Boge). PSS10 made the car sooo much better.

Has anyone noticed 993 prices taking a small dip lately?

they are certainly off prices from 2 years ago and remain a tad soft maybe. i would say the turbos and WBs are holding best obviously with the NB cars following a gap behind. a 993NB is a nice deal when compared to similar 964NBs. the BIG question i have is when will the uber/ev/'don't want to own a car' types start having a greater impact on overall prices. every generation of car moves out of public interest at some point - antiques, classics, musclecars, etc. - by the lack of interest from current and potentially upcoming generations. that makes me wonder how quickly the ICE cars will fall out of favor. if it's a quick transition, some of us might get stuck with some really cool 'old' cars that decline in value over a very short period. time will tell.

1995 polar silver coupe. Basket handle rear light. Black interior. Manual. Stock 17" cup wheels with new treads
145k miles
2nd owner. Since 60k miles. Purchased. 1999.
Re-geared tranny. 2nd thru 6th. Good ratios. Steel synchros.
RS LWFW and clutch. No stalling issues.
Pss10. RS sway bars. In good shape.
8 or 9 out of 10 interior. Seriously. Stock interior. Leather seats are still impressive.
Fully maintained at the highest level. All records available.

Purrs Like a kitten and runs perfectly. Well balanced and fun and good for track and taking wife to dinner.

To me, priceless!!😎

I realize your Q is likely rhetorical but on the Facebook 993 group a car similar to what you describe was asking $65k.

If I recall, it was 95 C4. 180k miles but within past 40k miles had a 3.8 engine rebuild and transmission regear. Pss10. Costs of upgrades were reportedly at $70k. Seems like it would be a great deal for someone interested in eventually upgrading from a stock car.

I think 993s will have one more bump up in price in about approximately 10 years........maybe sooner and that's it....maybe 10 % max 20%

For us canadians, it really suck. The us/can exchange is really bad at the moment.

There is litteraly no cars available and some guys are asking big chunk of money.

I paid 75k cad for a 95 c4 with 30k miles this summer.
Added another 25k in mods.

Then this winter, rs clutch and flywheel and regear.


Ahhh, im crazy ?

Market is slowing for the 993's and most cars at this time. What the next few months of the political mayhem brings might see some changes.

Although the right cars are still bringing good money.

This tip sold for strong money but it was an S. Can you option a tip with LSD? I am not sure how since it is essentially a VW 4 speed trans.

JV is a good guy. I wonder about the price at which this car sold.

Market is definitely softer now than at any time since I started looking more than 30 mos. ago.

^^^ He is having issues moving most everything. F cars seem to be the toughest. Not a good time for him or most in this business although the nice cars do fetch strong money. I was told what it sold for but asked not to disclose. I will say it was not cheap. Buyer wanted a tip. A year ago he sold another S tip with far less miles for 6 figures.

not just 993s
a good 997.1 RS was $165K+ last year, now down $30k.

Recession is coming.... wait till 3Q 2020 deals will be had! Downhill from there...and even better deals as people will need to unload for cash... being in the Economics Business all the indicators are ripe next 18 months out for downturn.

Best way to extract value from these cars is to drive them!

The value of the car to me seems to be increasing with every mile I drive in it!
