A few more "driver" 930s that aren't stratosphere-priced:

I never liked this color but if I had the time and space would love to scoop this one up for grins. With a freshly minted DL in 1980 I test drove a brand new Saab 99 turbo and a black 900 turbo when that was released a year or two later.

Oh Yeah!

Unless, a triple black XK with the sport options comes along ;)

I don't think it is a bubble but more of a market correction.

European buyers went away when the Euro got stronger a year or two ago and cars in the USA weren't as much of a bargain. Also, when confidence in the stock market goes down, investors look for other places to invest: gold, art, cars. Lastly, some of the recent classic car buyers realized that the cost of ownership is too high and they aren't enjoying the car since they don't want to risk having the vehicle's value ruined by a distracted driver with a phone in a 10 year old minivan.

I expect there to be some further drop and then leveling off. After that, the values will start going back up at a less insane rate.

Good - I can take my 993 to the track without pissing my pants then. SmileWavy
