This Month's Hemmings Sports and Exotic Car Magazine

Has a 1986 Carrera on the cover and a 6 page article inside. The car is a daily driver and weekend DE car. Article is pretty good, but their value of '86 Carreras is grossly overinflated showing a low of $17K and a high of $26K. I wish.

I am missing something, right?

A very, very good car will "retail" at those numbers. We normally talk about what cars "sell" at. No, I'm not paying 17 for a dog, but I did pay 11. I can buy hundreds of mid 90's cars and truck for 5K. Porsches don't look too bad, if you don't overpay, as you would do at retail.

The funny thing is, we used to talk about how every 911 becomes a 20K outlay, be it today or over the next year or two. I think those numbers need to be adjusted higher.

I tend to watch what the Carreras sell for and the 84-86 Carreras run from around a low of $13K up to around $22K. Seen higher and lower, but this seems to be the average range.
