i just bought a 50k mi 993tt (96) for roughly 100K a few weeks ago -- the way the car came to me i think i paid a little under market, but not by much

it is very clean, great shape but does have minor accident history and aftermarket garrett turbos

it is a joy to drive and look at... just love it

so keep looking and have dry powder ready... i think you will find your car

There's some 25-35k mile cars out there that's been for sale for a year or longer. Seller's are now hoping against hope that they'll get that "last guy" willing to pay 145K dollars for them.

I've been ready to buy for 6 mos. But I don't see anything moving. I'm waiting. I believe time is on the buyer's side.

Look at the 430 manual and 964RS America market prices also. 430 manuals(over original MSRP) are asking a similar number as a scud(under original MSRP.) I struggle with these valuations as well but market is the market.

Don't buy if you don't think the value is there for the 3TT at this price point.

I think you're right. Time is on your side. However, a 25k mile stock 993tt in desirable color and great condition could be worth $150k.
Not many of those around.
Should be possible to get a good condition/accident free 60k+ car for $100k this winter. Good luck with your search. They are great cars.

Personally love red/black. Looks amazing on 993. Actually surprised this car hasn't sold.

Time is on your side Shark. Stay vigilante and be prepared to pull the trigger fast. With over 5000 built, there is definitely one out there meeting your condition & price criteria. May just take a little time for it to enter the market.

+1. I think if your in the 100K range this is it, pending decent PPI it's pretty impressive being one owner and original paint too.

There you go ...What he said

Supply and demand . good ones will be considered good investment as people want to move to hard assets.

You should also offer $100k to some of the +$100k cars sitting out there. Someone may bite for a cash buyer with little drama. Cash is king and BS walks.

Time will be on the buyers side until when spring starts to break. Once spring is here (2017) the cars are going to correct again and go up and continue to slowly increase.

I think the time to buy is between now and January 1st or February 1st.

I just upgraded my 96 midnight blue/marble gray 36K mile car for a 97 white with tan sport seats 27K mile car for almost nothing out of my pocket except for PPI and transport.

There are some really good deals around, you just have to find the right one.

Also, if the car was properly maintained and taken care of and not abused or tracked, I wouldnt be afraid of a car with 50-80000 miles. These motors are very strong as long as they arent modified or beaten up all the time.

If anyone needs help finding a car or has questions feel free to PM me. I have worked in the car industry for 21 years and I have gotten to know LOTS of air cooled Porsche people, so I am pretty well plugged into the market.

I recently mentioned that I was looking in a post, had two guys pm me with 100k obo asks. So, they're out there, if you have a 100k, you'll find a seller, may be an off color or wood interior but.....There was a black on cashmere one fs forever at 120k, I know for a fact it went in the 90s after months.

Nice car and DEFINITELY priced below the market value right now.

Best of luck with it.

(All I would do is find a set of hollow spoke turbo wheels for it and it will be perfect)
