[blau911]

The german era of buying back early 911 cars will end in the next year or two. Why? Because there are only so many germans willing and able to buy an old 911 and pay big money to restore it properly or pay big money to buy one from someone else in germany that has paid big to have it restored. There are 83million germans and 340million americans. The german market just by sheer population is smaller.
BTW, the last two oldtimer car shows I was at here in Munich schocked me a bit. There were a large number of big 50/60's American muscle cars and cruisers (T-Birds, Chevy Belaires, Mustangs, vettes, etc...) all of which people hovered around and worshipped - while the dozen or so early 911's and 356's were only casually glanced at and quickly disregarded.
It's a phase like everything else. It too will pass.
