Bravo on your comment Ficke...my 67 912 puts a smile on my face every time I drive it (Ive owned mulltiple 911's, 930/S, 928 etc).
Sometimes the simplicity is the value. Have you looked at the prices of old VW buses lately?

The other thing is condition, You mentioned the 911 option is high mileage, How is the interior and paint compared to the two cars? No it is not as clear cut or simple as it might seem when comparing cars.
