964 C2 Coupe 5-speed value?

[mike9186]

I'm the happy owner of a black/linen 1991 C2 coupe with a 5-speed (101k on the ODO) and am wondering about the current value. There are zero for sale on Ebay in the US. The latest issue of Panorama had zero of them in the back classifieds. Autotrader and Cars.com do not have any. There are plenty of cabs, C4's, Targas and Tips around.

Thanks

Is it original and do you have pics?

[mike9186]

It is original and very well cared for. I've since added Cup I replica wheels.

$31-32K if it is a later 91 with the head gasket or if the head gasket fix is documented. Less if you keep the replica wheels on it.

[christiandk]

Between 30 and and high 30s depending on the condition and original accessories like books, tools etc. Just my opinion of course.

10. Front Splitter added last summer. Front fascia 'Smile' straightened

Are those cup 2 replicas ?? Different.
Appears you have have kept up well with repairs & maintenance.

No too many cars on the market like yours!
I'd price it @ 35-40, sell it to a euro at 40.
Or keep it and sell it later for more.

Everyone marvels at the early 911 market, or SC/Carrera....but 964 market is off the chart.

Good eye Type 911. That pic is from a few years ago (it's what I had handy when I wrote the post) and those are 996/Boxster wheels. They do look like Cup 2's and I actually think they suit the car but I wanted period correct so I got the Cup I replica's. Here is a photo from a few months ago with those wheels installed. It is not as glamorous but you can get the idea.

Original plate wheels will be good to put on the car.

Every 964 C2 I see around here is 125-150k mi and $20-25k. Clearly this car outclasses those.

I think 964's with Fuchs look great.

^^^this

When I was shopping, SCs and 964s were on par, from a price standpoint. Now 964s are pacing 3.2s, and going beyond. Other than longhoods, 964s seem to have had the biggest lift.

That makes sense!

I've had these cars for 20 years, studied them daily, and I never even saw one. PML how can your brain absorb all that info so fast? Or are you just putting random words together? Do you really know what Fuchs is or 964?

Fuchs will not mount on a 964. Other than that, you've got a point.

Mind-blowing what is going on in certain segments of the used 911 market if the estimates here are true.

Trying to remember exactly when, (sometime last decade), but I passed on almost the exact car for $12k. Black/black, just over 100k miles and c2 manual. Friend of friend was trading it in and that's what they were giving him. Offered to me for same. Dang it.

prices are going only one direction that is up
keep it as long as you can and if you have to sell it don't settle for less

Second this absolutely. Unless you have your heart set on another model and need to sell this one to finance that purchase, I wouldn't let go of it.

In three years, I have seen the prices sky rocket on these cars. I did PPIs on two different '91 C4s in 2011 either of which I could have purchased for under $20K. Both had under 100K miles and were in good shape with no head gasket leaks. It's difficult - if not impossible - to find 964s at this price anymore in similar condition. This includes 89s which tended to linger on the market then for six months or more, no matter what the condition. Today, even these cars sell fast.

Black can be a tough sell.
You never know.
