Price wise, like all P cars of that era, had a serious run up, but things seemed to have leveled back down, and quiet a bit higher than where that run up started. Nice old school turbos will always be special. "never all that special" Tool.
Sklet, or Skirt, or whatever your name is, I was being facetious, but they were clearly not perceived as must-have collector icons just evidenced by their pricing alone. Why are all these collectors paying $150k+ for one now (or at least in 2015) and not the fraction of that required before 2013? Hint: the demand wasn't there. Air-cooleds have only recently graduated from being clunky souped-up VWs in the eyes of snotty collectors. But go ahead and try to pretend that collector car guys are immune to trends and herd psychology.


And the less said about 930xx's hilarious market "insight" the better.

And for the record I have virtually no interest in owning a 930.
