And that's not even counting other aircooleds that practically went for pennies. The reason? My apparently *highly* controversial hot-take is that it's because demand was lower. Today's (and 2015's) higher prices are due to new demand from the moneyed collector set, which materialized quickly and IMO was fueled by evolving groupthink.
And turbo owner, your conniption over some nobody on an inconsequential enthusiast forum having a different opinion from you sure says a lot.  |
Two different things a play here, Two different markets.
For NA 911s/S/SC/Carrera
I think it's as simple as these air cooled 911s are the finest, purest, aesthetically perfect, porsche that will ever be.
For the 930
I think the 930 were always going to become highly collectible due to that fact they were elite status in the supercar world.
The original group included ( poster cars )
Lamborghini Countach
Ferrari 512 bbi
De Thomaso Pantera
And later included the Testarossa.
The 930 could out accelerate them all and nearly as high top speed.
I think this original group of super cars are league to themselves.
