Found a '97 nicely specced Speed Yellow Turbo for sale by a local dealer. Literally my dream spec 993 Turbo down to every option. That fact alone makes me want to go take a look at it this week. I believe the price is a bit too much but you guys can give me your opinions.

Looks like a great example in a rare color with some rare options. Being low mileage comes with some tradeoffs so make sure you get a good PPI. Price is high but if it's exactly what you're looking for.......

Great car other than being more than $100k overpriced.

Don't forget in Canada by default we are taxed with a premium. But this premium is quite excessive. Here is a comparison in Vancouver but double the mileage @ $100K less, so don't feel a SY is like super rare. If your talking about Riv, Mexico or Turquoise blue then we are talking rare.

Non tech equipment shifter and hand brake

Is that worth a CAD$100K?

Wow! Both with hardback sport seats!
Let's see...
1997 Speed Yellow Turbo
30,658 km = 19,049 miles
$299,900 CAD ~ $222,570 USD
1996 Speed Yellow Turbo
70,488km = 45,042 miles
$199,888 CAD ~ $148,392 USD
The prices don't look as ridiculous as I thought when I saw this thread yesterday..

A little update: found a '96 in similar spec in the states. This one I would say is a fair price as well.
