it has been said sometime ago that they are all $20k cars - unless you get very lucky or don't want to fix what needs fixing then you are likely to be putting a considerable amount of money in the car...

I bought my 88 Carrera Cab in 2004 for $16500 which I thought was a pretty good price. After replacing the clutch, tires, carpeting, fixing oil leaks, and replacing shocks....I had a $20k car.
The future value should have no concern for you. It'll fluctuate up and down (hopefully up) but repairing and maintaining costs will negate any appreciation you'll see...unless the government outlaws all Porsches except the one you buy!
