A very good but not great car. The price was buoyed a little by a couple of factors:

- Long term ownership
- documented 53k miles

Balanced against the replacement body panels (from deer incident), modern stereo, inop A/C, and almost no information on maintenance. For a couple grand, an owner/mechanic can do an engine-out service to fix all the deferred, age-related things that probably need "done" (fuel lines, brake lines, vacuum hoses, rpm & crank sensors, O2 sensor, valve adjustment, etc.

You can't "fix" low mileage.

The same car with 100k miles is probably $4-6k less.

Well bought. That modded 2002 went for stupid money right before this Cab.

This '95 993 Cab went really cheap, IMO at $34k:

The seller didn't post once in the auction, and probably hurt his price by several grand in the process.

Right on the money. I thought this 97 went cheap also.

but quickly realizing that the market for higher mileage/driver condition 993 cabs are in the lower/mid $30k range these days.

Which is about where they were in 2008 when I was looking at them.

993s have seen the least benefit from the run-up in prices, and I think G50 Carreras have matched if not jumped them. At least the Cabriolets have.
