Original cars can still have strong value over modified cars even at 100,000 miles.
Modified cars will pull a premium if they are,

Early Special Wishes (these cars will have big upside soon..)
Problem is with modified.. and this is where I upset a lot of pelicans.
Quality let me say this again QUALITY.
These mods are often poorly carried out and misguided.
So when you modify a 930 you leave all kind of questions as to the quality of these modifications..
That's before you take in account a 930 that started out as the ultimate expression of the 911 and now looks like a dogs breakfast..
Painted engines, goofy cheap autozone wheels,gutted interiors, incorrect mirrors,spoilers, wings ect. The list goes on and on.
So good intentions with 99% of 930 modifications (at home engineering) ends in bad results.
These cars were highly technical and had the most supreme build quality the world has ever seen (G body 911). So you can imaging what happens when a at home mechanic starts throwing parts on from a mail order catalog..
I'm restoring a 120 year old victorian house (4000 + sq ft) so I don't have time to attempt even remedial repairs. I leave everything to a pro of 30+ years experience on aircooled 911/930s.
