symsy Posted 12September, 2017 Report Share Posted 12September, 2017 Yes this is a concrete test of the HotRod market. As I have a new widebody G series exrace project, I am watching closely.Interesting to see how much defanging is needed to make a semi-civilised road car out of a trackrat. I notice the Carsales add has it listed as a 4 speed gearbox - could this be a Turbo 915 box. or a typo? That little motor looks like it would spit & snarl in stop/go traffic until it warmed up & then Zoom (ahhh to be young again!!!)I have video of that car slightly diffrent spec.. but that motor definately growls Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did snorkels remain on SC's later?If you are referring to the washer snorkels, I think '79 was the last year for them, then they went to the flush mounted ones ...Rare as hens teeth and just as expensive (if you can find any) ....

TrevMcRev Posted 12September, 2017 Report Share Posted 12September, 2017 Seeing as it's the YOTC, I've noticed a couple of 996.1s have slipped under the $30k mark. If you take on the Boxrod mentality, it makes it an interesting proposition. One is even priced at less than a 944 auto:Boxrod. It's officially a thing now.Its the new Outlaw. And that black one would do mrsmcrev, got back seats for the kids and all! Mike-S and symsy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also reckon from a smile on the dial perspective, taking that 964TT on a Vic PFA SMT would not beat the experience of rocking up with all of the three alternate turbo's mentioned with two of your good mates and planning out a few strategic pitstops along the run for some key swapping all whilst having total disregard for seeing or watching the odometer ticking over.

The red Sydney 'ST homage maybe the slowest, but that was more to do with the sales mechanism.. but it was still sold within a few weeks , though only 2 real buyers there's a few other hotties dressed in IROC splendour though they are all nth of 200k and likely stay unsold.

I don't know how that price stacks up, but a 964t to me is the ultimate of the non-race 911's. 993t would be a great second. The 996 and 997 are not even in the same category, great cars (undoubtably better cars), but I think a 964t buyer wouldn't even consider them.

Much rarer (5 Aussie cars I think). Agree no comparison to the other water cooled turbos - they made buckets of those MFX 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SimonN Posted 13September, 2017 Report Share Posted 13September, 2017 Anyone had a look at this one or have any details? Asking for a mate.https://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/Porsche-911-1979/SSE-AD-4954940/?Cr=1My gut feel is that it isn't cheap even though I suspect it is a good car. It's a UK car, however long it has been over here. I would suggest that it is not far off the money for a coupe, rather than a targa. I don't see it above $60K and maybe its less than that. Fresh meathttps://carsales.mobi/cars/details/Porsche-911-1982/OAG-AD-13862276 I sure hope that is the correct price for an SC Targa, but that looks like coupe money to me. micknine01 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScottyP Posted 13September, 2017 Report Share Posted 13September, 2017 Although I don't really follow Cayman asking prices, I was surprised to see a couple of manuals for well less than $40k asking. One at a smidge less than $35 even. Gotta be good buying there to get into the P-car world.
