Back to the OP's original question, the market sets the price.
The 87-89 cars are usually the focus of new enthusiasts looking to get into an aircooled 911 but want the most updated experience but also have deeper pockets to compete for a limited available supply.
Up until the last few years, the SC's were the entry point cars for those looking for a decent driver in the 35-45k range. Those days are now gone.
...You could spend all day discussing these trends.
The bottom line is that all G body cars of similar condition, color, and mileage are beginning to sell at similar prices. Is there really that much of a difference between 70k for an SC Coupe and 85k for a G50 3.2 Coupe? 17% seems pretty minor when you are talking about these prices.
Back when good condition SC's were in the high 30's, low 40's there was a big disparity when compared to G50 3.2's that would commonly sell in the high 60's, low 70's. There is still a bit of disparity but it is closer now than it ever has been and will likely keep getting closer.
My prediction is that over the next few years we will see 100k+ averages on all of these cars with small 10-15% differences between certain years with everything else being equal.
Those holding out waiting for prices to come down... With the combination of inflation along with the limited supply and strong demand, I don't foresee this changing. If you want one of these cars buy it now. Today is likely the cheapest it will be for the foreseeable future.
