Are 911 slant nose fendered cars worth less? How much?

i.e., worth less than a stock setup. I'm looking at an '87 with fiberglass fenders and spoiler, but original hood and bumper.

yes, worth less if it is not a genuine factory slant nose.

Depends on who is looking for car, oem or after market. Seller and Buyer will tell how much the items will go for. And despite what the board thinks here about the coked out cars of the 80's people still like them

Well, all 944s are slant noses, and you can pick them up for a few thousand bucks.

Depends on how bad or good the conversion is done.

I've looked at a couple - be careful. I've read a lot about issues with the headlight mechanisms!

Original factory slant nose Turbos are uber-cool and worth a mint.

Fake, aftermarket ones are worth squat

how long is a piece of string? tough to answer the question,every car is different,every sale is different.l`ve seen fright-pig conversions and dream car conversions.The guy who makes out the best on the converted car isn`t the guy building it,it`s the guy buying the built car.l`ve seen some really nice conversions of all types,not just slantnose,go for cheap money.Cheap money for what l consider really nice cars.Maybe not cars l would have built but fiberglass cars with turbos built right are a blast to drive and most people don`t have a clue what a "converted car"is,they just see a really hot road rocket
