I sold my cousin's collector quality '66 912 about 7 years ago for $7500 on ebay. A guy in Spain bought it. I could have had it for $6k, still kicking myself over it. It would be in the top 2% of all early cars for sale in the world- zero rust or accidents, mint paint/chrome/interior/etc.

There are pics of it elsewhere on this site, I'll try to dig them up just for crying sake.

Except this one:

Porsche 969/965 Story, Prototypes and Styling Exercises

I'll confirm that $7500 was roughly the going rate for a 912 back in 2007. Here's my old car with a Harry Pellow engine. It sold in a day so I probably left a little money on the table....

If anyone knows the current owner (last seen in California), I recently found a stack of receipts for this car after moving this past year. Includes the original engine rebuild at The Maestro's shop in 1989....keep the 912 faith!!! I'd like this history to be reunited with the car.

That was a nice 912. People kill for those prices these days...just seam like yesterday. What the hell happen!!!

I hear ya Matt. Me either.

Ad says cheapest 993 Turbo S around - really? Crazy!

Right, the 965 project to develop the 969, which was never released. Instead they made the 964 Turbo. Guys use the 965 designation like it's the evolution of the 930. It's not.

Or maybe I should just start referring to the 917 as the 912, since that was its project number and many 917 parts start with 912...;)

I think they are already near 100k and have been for a while for a very nice example.


If you know of a nice original 993tt for 65k, I say jump on it.

IT seems like 3.3l 964T have always held a moderate to slight premium over 930s. The differential seems to be decreasing with 930 escalation. If a minty 930 is a 100k car I dont know why a similar condition 964t wouldent be.

The ultimate turbo is the 3.6L 964t of course. Ive been saying this for 10+ years and it took the market a while to wise up :D

If I want a fast turbocharched AWD car, I'll buy a subaru (ok another one)

OK, here it is.
 

This is the 912 I sold for $7500 in 2007. I could have had it for $6500 for sure, maybe less. It was my cousin's, he bought it on eBay on a whim and then never drove it or got it sorted-out, ie. brakes/tuning/etc. It was a mechanically great car, just needed a weekend's worth of DIY love.

The guy in Europe who bought it must be laughing about now. :cool:

I've owned 911s constantly for 25 years now, driven them like crazy, studied them, taken them apart and put them back together.

So, obviously, I love them.

But I wouldn't even think about paying these crazy prices for one. They are IMO the best overall car ever made, but they are still just cars.

I agree, Mclovin.

I have to admit that I have spent more time working on my P-cars than driving them. But when you finish a job well done and look at those big round smiling greatfull 911 eyes......there really is no substitute!

People are just catching on to what we've known for years…and paying through the nose for it.
A rising tide lifts all boats fellas. Woo hoo!

Six figure 912, and not Chris' Polo powered one that's been for sale for a year...

For the record, I agree with Mclovin and the others. I've been effectively priced out of the market on interesting old Porsches like an early S or a 930, but I don't care. I love the ones I've got. I'll enjoy them and drive them and not worry about the fact that I might be degrading some museum piece. They are too much fun to just park and polish...

Hi
 

European Collectables in Cost Mesa, CA, has a 1969 912 in Leaf Green for $69,000.
I seen it last March 2, at their open house.

Most I ever seen for a 912.
