A friend of mine (works in same building) is thinking about buying a Porsche or other collector car. What he is asking is two fold.

A. Which car model will hold it's value?

B. Which car is undervalued and is a good investment.


I know they are two different questions.

If answering "A" I'd say just buy Pat's 1986 944 Turbo for $17,000, the guy works in the same building as us - easy.

If answering "B" I'd consider recommending a Karmen Ghia convertible for $17,000 as found in Hemmings, thinking it could double in value in seven years.

I of course told him Ferrari's are investments, Porsche's are meant to be driven and driven hard. I don't think he's looking at spending 356 Speedster money, but likes the 356 coupe.

What would your A & B choices be for only $17,000?

Note: He likes of just about everything, even old MG's, and likes to work on cars - the light stuff. Will be stored during Michigan winters.
