4 bids, 100k and 6 days to go. I'm guessing it will be closer to 200k before it's over.

Looks fantastic.

Wheels contrast exterior/interior color nicely.

I've been all over this car in person. It is both unique and stunning.

Its a great car, but its not an original motor, which makes me wonder why the price jumped so quick.

I assume its because of the color, however it is a very clean car.

1st turbo I ever drove was this color combo, absolutely stunning. The wife liked it too, took her for a ride in it, she started getting iffy at 90 in second. Shifted into 3rd and warp drive kicked in, she had all she wanted by the top of 3rd and I shut it down.

She is a little braver now, the last high speed blast we got to 5k in 4th before she said enough, that is to fast for the street.

Why didn't this car sell? Has the market softened?

I realize not original motor.

This example was high mileage, 169K miles. Interior, exterior, engine detailing done. Underneath showed all miles, perhaps a bit more. Rough bottom sticked out like a sore thumb, but it will be a small job to put right.

Auction was strange, to start with pennies and then bang, an early on a bid of $100K killed the auction. Wrong venue for this kind of motor, too.

On Ferrarichat folks discuss a 1976 that sold for $214.5K this weekend

Overall, think the 930 market is like an apple tree. Prices went up, you shake the tree first time and suddenly you have a lot of ripe apples on the ground.

You shake it next time, fewer apples drop. You shake it third time, none will drop.

Those 930's that have sold for $100k-$300k will never be on market again. Soon there will be left only owners who have not sold for $100k-$300k, which mostly means they will never sell.

Now there are still some apples around, so grab one while you can!

Anyone interested in a 76 Black Black no sun roof 930 always fully serviced 11K miles from the original owner who has been a major enthusiast/owner of many interesting sport/racing cars all of his now 80 years. Shown and price only by personal inspection. Obviously over $300K. He even has an elevator from lower garage to lift into main living for enjoying his cars at his country home. This car is amazingly excellent and unrestored .
