How does geographic location affect the price/value of a decent 911?
I live in the center of the US and most cars I see for sale here and e-bay are on either coast. Add the cost of shipping and the problems associated with no being able to see, touch, smell or drive a car make most of them unaffordable. |

Take your time a car will pop up local to you.

Macroni, Thanks for you input. Time is the only commodity I have plenty of.
The question still remains. Are 911s on either coast worth less because there are more of them or more because the demand is higher. I'm not an economist but the supply and demand thing must play a part. Last edited by 3stewartS; 02-28-2011 at 10:02 AM.. Reason: spelling |

80% of the US population lives within 100 miles of the coast. It stands to reason that there will be more cars for sale where there are more people.

I think there probably is a supply and demand attribute but it might be inverse to logic... More buyers....... higher prices.....

That makes perfect sense to me. But I've always been a little "inverse to logic"!

Yep, vintage Porsches are in low supply and low demand in KC. We have the rust buckets to weed through also.
I agree with Macroni. Keep searching and with patience, you'll find one. I just registered/tagged my newly aquired 912E downtown today. Local find. Jackson County's computer system doesn't recognize the MY76 912E. The lady asks "Are you sure it isn't a 914 or 911?" I guess I've got the only one in town. ![]()
