RNM at $163k. Seems like a good price for a 993 Turbo these days. I wonder how far off of the reserve it was.
As much as I love Porsche...that's not a $160k car to me.
Could better spend that (imaginary) money elsewhere.
Agreed. I've driven a very good client's Arena Red '96 Turbo extensively. Original owner, 90,000km, absolutely perfect condition. Great car, but heck, air cooled Porsches are a $50-80,000 driving experience AT BEST. They're timeless icons but the thought of spending $200-300k on one of these astounds me.
Don't get me wrong, I think my 964 is one of the best driving, most engaging cars I have ever had the pleasure of driving, but in the condition mine is in it's worth $150k CAD. A very good friend had a similar '91 non-turbocharged car with double the mileage, some mods and no history, walked into Pfaff Reserve and they gave him $147.5k, and flipped it for $179,995 in a week. There is ZERO chance I would ever fathom paying that kind of money for one of these.
