Interesting conversation... I completely agree with the lack of all original, unmolested cars... I searched for an US 86-88 930 (no '89, hydraulic assisted 5 speed not for me.) for a 18 months before I bought a meteor/full lthr '86 930, 38k miles for 40k...But it was interesting how many sellers expected me to pay for there "upgrades" and they didn't even have the original parts. For so many cars I would start adding the price for all the original parts i needed to buy..That's if I could find them..Accidents, no documentation were also turn offs.. It was never worth the asking price for me to search for an original intercool or radio, let alone stock Fuchs 7/9s..Im very happy with the car but it was a lot of work searching for an all original car.. I wasnt looking for a deal i was looking for the right car...My experience during my search is low mileage >50k all original cars *(US 74-89 911/930s) sell at a premium and usually fast..nobody's stupid, excellent examples are hard to find. And in this market only the strong will survive...
