I agree.....

The crap economy dropped the prices a bit, but I expect a bounce soon (if the economy holds up).

The "S" is a given (limited production hot rod) to rocket up, but I think the best value & sleeper of the long hood bunch is the "E." Most road tests of the day were a bit put off by the high strung S, and tended to favor the all around driveability of the E (and T).

They made a bunch (relatively speaking) of "T" models, IMO they will trend up a bit - but slower.

I don't really get the 356's rocketing price leap myself. Nice driver quality 356 B's were around $5k not that many years ago. I can see the rarer 356's ( Carreras, Speedsters, any race or early version, etc.) commanding big money, but rough B's bringing upward of $30k is silly IMO.

Most post '69 911's are really nice driver's, and a properly running S or E, heck maybe even a T, would likely out handle/out brake/out run even the hot 4 cam 356 Carrera's. 356's a well built, charming little cars, but high performance - not so much.
