It's a 95k mile engine in a car that's been sitting in the rain with a salvage title. In perfect condition with clean title it's a $30-35k car at best. It has unknown damage, which, best case scenario, will cost a few G's to make right. Deduct whatever percentage salvage titles cost on Porsches and you're right about break even at $15k if there's no issue with the AWD. Parts for these cars are not cheap, as they are not interchangeable with any other models and were only imported for one or two yrs. in the US (C4 non-S only). I could part that car out for $20k if I had the time and space to do it. It'd be a killer parts car. But C4 non-S's are not the most desirable of the 993 generation.
