Thanks for the information. That's the kind of useful help I need.

The car I'm looking at really does look like it has 24k miles, not 64k. Coupled with the fact it has good factory options, some nice upgrades, and a glowing recommendation from my long-time Porsche mechanic, does $14-15k sound about right?
I have a buddy in my local PCA that buys and sells pristine 944/951's. He's retired and just does it for the fun and what ever extra money he can make for his golfing obsession. He just sold an '86 with ~50K on it in near mint condition. All stock with exception of some factory copied twistie rims and new Dunlops for $15.5k I believe. A guy flew in from Oregon to buy it and said he'd been looking for a car like it for over a year.

I also know another buddy looking for the exact same car who is willing to pay ~14-15k to get it also. I tried to talk my friend out of selling it to the guy from Oregon and to sell it to my friend but he had already given his word :-(

Moral of the story, the nice ones will bring a higher price tag. If you want what you describe in your original post, my experience tells me that you're looking for a car that will be in the 14-16k price range... of course unless you find a needle in a hay stack and go have way around the country to get it like I did

Happy Hunting and take care!!!
