The demand for a Coupe in this condition is far greater but at 66k miles and no details what was actually done to an early engine and some questions I have about condition I would place this at a $65k targa tops. If it were a coupe and late MY 91 or newer in this condition with less miles it might see $85k but highly doubt it.
It is Velocity that is selling and I have been less than impressed by any car i saw they sold so possibly less for this than $65k if what I suspect is true. At 66k miles the car shouldn't need new body seals unless it sat outside and has been recently gussied up. I couldn't spend $10k on body seals with labor to install if I charged $200 an hour and paid over MSRP on the seals and that includes $2k for targa top restoration. The top on this car was redone but far from perfect. The front trunk seal is original and splitting at the corners, cracks in some plastic interior bits, the front dash is warped and there is a crack in the side door panel top. What really concerns me is the lower dash pushing into the door panel leaving an impression. This is a valid concern and I have only seen when there was something not straight about the car. So needs investigating. Front seats have been reworked. The windshield has been replaced, improperly installed and you can see the radio antenna has not been inserted into the amplifier and just tucked under the corner to hide it along with that aftermarket radio. Also check out the gaps by the engine lid something isn't right. No underbody shots?? I can go on about many other things I see but I suspect if you gave me this car for an hour I would find much more to question.
If this were an all original late MY targa with <30k miles without any of the questionable issues I see I could see $85k asking but this price is more than optimistic IMO.

No doubt you are spot on with your analysis....
