[88911coupe]

I purchased an '87 cab for $29,XXX back in about 2001 or so and drove it for 2 years putting about 30,000 miles on it and sold it for $29,000 sight unseen, although I (well the mechanic actually) did put a new clutch in it, and a few while you are in there fixes, for about $3,500. Considering the fun of that car I think I did pretty well. I bought my current '88 coupe for 16,500 or so about 5 years ago and have not had to spend any significant money yet, but a valve job is looming. After that I guess I could sell it in the low to mid teens if I had to...maybe more. Overall, I'd say that's pretty good performance for what is normally a rapidly depreciating asset. The G50 Carreras are often referred to as the "best" of the older cars and whether or not that's true is not important, the point is a lot of people think they are so that keeps values from dropping.
