Value of a 71 911E??

['71 911E Coupe]

Hi everyone,

I was wondering if anyone could help me out the the value of a 1971 911E coupe. The car has 81,900 miles on it and has the original engine and transmission, body work has just been completed on the car (front suspension pan, etc) so there is no rust on the car execpt for mabye a little surface rust here and there. I'll get some pictures up here. Any help is appericated. Thanks!

Depending upon a multitude of unknown variables... $15K - $25K.

Post every detail that you know about history and current status of the car and I am sure someone here will better ballpark the value.

Thanks!

Well I just recently got the car back on the road after being off the road since the early 80s.

Front suspension pan has been replaced along with other body sections that were rotted out.

Original MFI that has be overhauled, and runs perfectly and pulls strong and all 5 gears. Car shifts great too.

Car came with A/C. All the lines are installed but I do not have the compressor on the car.

The body of the car is straight. The paint is not great but it's good and looks really nice a few feet back. It just has small defects. Front driver's fender, rear decklid and license plate panel have just been repainted.

Currently the car does not have the following:

Carpet, working ignition switch (I have a push start instead temporaily), heater (flapper) boxes which i have new ones of though, or a working radio.

Other than hat everything on the car works great, has new brighter headlights, new air cleaner housing, new air filter, new fuel filter, rebuilt MFI electric fuel pump, Sealed gas tank that was cut in half, sandblasted, welded back together and then sealed.

Has 4 New tires, Brand new shocks in the rear and updated Struts in the front (from the old self leveling struts although I have them).

I have a RS front bumper not istalled on the car, new MFI air stacks, and 69 911E MFI pump along with probably about 30 other parts I would be selling with the car.

Sorry if this explaniation is all over the place, I'm just typing these up off the top of my head. Again any help with value of the car is appericated. I was thinking with all the spare parts I have to go along with the car ( the MFI stuff can be worth a few thousand alone) would around $28,000 be too high???

Thanks again!

By the way, these pictures aren't the greatest, I wish I had a good camera, I'll have to get some pictures of it in the sun. Thanks!

Hello Antony,

nice car, what color is it? I would go back to polished Fuchs horns - same as your spare wheel. It suits the car much better than the black ones. Also original fog lights could raise some additional bucks.

how much do you expect for the car?

Appreciation Rating:

***** Value likely to increase much more than the market at large, perhaps as much as 25% in the next 12 months. **** Will outperform the market at large; perhaps 10% gain in 12 months. *** Fully priced at the current time. Will appreciate or depreciate along with the market at large. ** Somewhat overpriced today, or a car that is slightly out of favor. May represent a good buying opportunity if you think the market’s opinion of the car will change. * Often a recent production car that is still depreciating heavily, or a vintage car whose maintenance costs far outweigh its market value and appeal. These collector cars are only good buys if you can do work yourself and love orphans.


Investment Grade:
Note: This is not a value appreciation guide. Rather, it is an overall ranking of the desirability of the car, regardless of current market conditions

A Grade Cars that will always have a following and will always bring strong money when they are offered for sale. They embody the attributes of style, performance, historical significance, rarity and competition history that often typify first-rank collectibles. Examples are the Ferrari SWB, the Mercedes-Benz 300Sc Roadster and the Alfa Romeo 8C 2300 Monza. B Grade Cars that have something special about them, often technical innovation, style or competition provenance, but normally not all three. They were generally produced in far larger numbers than the A-tier cars. Examples are the Austin-Healey 100/4, the Ferrari 512 BB Boxer and the Lotus 7. C Grade Cars that have some inherent interest, but had few special or desirable characteristics. Examples are the Porsche 914, the Saab Sonett II and the Triumph TR4. D Grade Cars that had the potential to be interesting but failed to be successful in the collector car marketplace, often due to design, engineering or styling flaws. Examples include the Ferrari 400 2+2, the Acura NSX and the Alfa 2600 Sprint. F Grade Cars with few if any redeeming characteristics, that are consequently hopeless in nearly every way. Examples include the Alfa Romeo Alfetta sedan, the Iso Lele and the Lotus Eclat.

Thanks! If I remember correctly the color is Blutt Orange. It really fits the car nice. I'm still debating on wheter to sell it or not, I think the value of the car will go up if the economy ever turns around and then I would kick myself in the butt. Plus I haven't even gotten to really enjoy the car yet. Thanks for all the help!

In current condition I think Evergreeen is dead on.

It really is a cool car that needs very little to enjoy. It is not what I would call a financial investment. It is an investment in happiness. Why don't you keep it and tinker with it and drive it? That way, it will be more saleable, the market will increase some, and you will get to enjoy it?

Personally, I would kill for an early E. And yours is just about the condition I prefer.

Well said. My thoughts exactly. This looks like a really fun car to drive around in and just enjoy. To me the 2.2Es are the ultimate. If only it were a Targa...
