lol well that is a very nice example... Speed Yellow + Tubi and all the right interior options. This should get all the bids.
That Tubi exhaust sounds excellent

I remember when I purchased my car new in 2003, dealerships were giving heavy discounts to move speed yellow cars. They were probably the most unpopular cars back then. I also remember the 40th anniversary cars were being discounted $20K plus to get rid of them.

That example seems to bear all of the goldilocks traits. I hate speculating on numbers as the market can be fickle and it depends on who is in the room, but after watching a LOT of BaT sales, here is what I think matters;
- Low enough mileage
- Rare & desirable colour (Cobalt Blue, Guards Red, Carrara White, Speed Yellow)
- Car has been dry-iced, and is reasonably well presented.
The questions around paint meter readings and a DME report will invariably surface, and if the Seller plays along and provides them and there are no uncertainties, this could do quite well, $90K+, but as I said, it depends on a lot of things.

With that said, 2 of my 3 Porsches have more than tripled in value (over the long term) and they were not bought at the bottom of the market for the cheapest price. Only if I was in the business of selling cars, or changing cars every year or two would I be concerned that I was slightly overpaying in the short term.

With 60k miles and it's spec that car is not really collector grade and PCar Market does not bring the money BaT does.

this one was also marked as cold by collectorcars at 49k https://www.pcarmarket.com/auction/2...auctionResults
but now collectorcars has it listed at 83k https://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-...ckType=listing
guess it didn't actually sell, sometimes hard to figure out what goes on on pcar market

$6000 for a set of hollow spoke Turbotwists is insane.
