At the same time I've been looking at 996 prices, and anecdotally, it looks to me like they have ticked up since bottoming out in 2013-2014. I'm not seeing any for sale under $12k, and those without galactic miles are in the high teens to low 20s.
I kept looking all the way through since this thread was new. I actually just bought a 99 986 2 weeks ago.

Anyway, I'm not sure I agree with what you think you are seeing. A lot of inventory disappeared over the winter. Many of the cheap cars got pulled from the market and it tended to settle into nicer higher priced cars, with a lot them at dealers.

I think in another 30-60 days we will see a bunch of cheap rough 986 and 996 vehicles offered again.
