What would you pay - 90 964 Coupe 264,000 miles

1990 C4

Car runs well but:

1- Has 264,000 miles
2- leaks oil from valve covers, few drips from oil tank area
3- Could use a repaint (Grand Prix White)
4- there was some rust around front windscreen which was repaired
4- Located in Canada

Good:

- the interior is excellent
- everything works including air conditioning
- new condensor fan, new blower motors, new wind screen
- new abs pump, steering rack in the last 2000 miles
- car still pulls strong

I am the second owner and was told that the motor was rebuilt by the previous owner. I did talk to the Porsche dealership that serviced the 964 but their maintenance history was so long they wouldn't send it to me. IS there a market for this 964 ???? If so what would you pay. (I'll tell you what I paid a little later... )


What's it worth??? I got about ($20,000 Canadian into it)

That's a tough call.

A friend of mine just sold his 1990 C4 for around $18,000 last year.
118,000 miles, excellent condition inside & out and passed both PPI's for two prospective buyers with no problems noted.


Someone else I know sold his white 245,000 mile 87 Carrera coupe with a recent motor overhaul (topenmd and bottom) and transmission rebuild similar condition as your car and after a year on the market for $10k he finally sold it for $8,500 US.

I would Just drive it and enjoy

Maybe ten to low teens? Some more info on the motor would be helpful in selling it... leakdown, etc. There's a racecar in the making, there, I think

In the US, you would not be able to get 5 figures for that car.

I bought it at a time when the Canadian dollar was not as strong as it is today. After exchange, duty and shipping it almost doubled the cost. I drove a friends low mileage 964 and I couldn't tel the difference between the two. When I bought it I knew the mileage would be a real turn off for resale. I am now looking to upgrade to a 993 ..... nothing wrong with two Porsche's in the garage..... three if I count my 944 which sucks for resale as well.

Derk,

Time goes quick. It seems like I just read your post on Rennlist about buying this car...but it's 3 years already...

I wouldn't sell it for a nickle less than you paid for it...!
