Thommo66 Posted 2August, 2018 Report Share Posted 2August, 2018 Anybody know anything about this 1977 911 SC thats been restored in Melbourne ? Looks like a pretty good job. Hard to price FMV though assuming PPI checks out well. https://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/Porsche-911-1977/SSE-AD-5497665 Any thoughts ?

If you want originality then this isn't quite it .... If you want a car that has all the work done and looks great, then this could be it. There's a couple of things that pose questions .... It used to have air but now it doesn't ... The speedo is not the right one for this car ... so not sure why it was sent to the UK to be refurbished. The door trims are wrong but he has said they are new lightweight ones. The engine has been "worked" in order to have so much HP ... I would also ask others who know more about the wheels ... I would have thought that 9 inch wheels on the rear would need the guards rolled in order to fit / look right ... You would need to see it in person to gauge it yourself ...

Doesn’t have chrono and no sports exhaust. With those sort of k’s that’s coupe pricing, cabs always seem to have less of a price premium on them. I know it’s odd but the thing that sticks out to me is the chrome exhaust tips are filthy over time which then tells me how fastidious previous owners were...... (yes I have a problem..) personally in this market I think the buying price should start with a 7 in it I think it’s about $10-$15k over the mark for a cab and the k’s.

Could have an 05 987.1 Boxster S manual for sale soon if that's of interest...... Could be great compromise and much cheaper starting point, and just a nice little step up from the 986.2.....

soarer Posted 6August, 2018 Report Share Posted 6August, 2018 After umming whether to go the GTS or the GT4. I think I will lean towards the GT4 Now there are 12 for sale on CS so if you guys think of ones which standout over others i'll look into it further. Happy to travel interstate to inspect as well. I'm in Victoria btw. 2 that stand out to me so far are the following. https://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/Porsche-Cayman-2015/SSE-AD-5570163/?gts=SSE-AD-5570163&gtssaleid=SSE-AD-5570163&rankingType=Spotlight (Being Vic based, it's easier to inspect etc) is the owner on this site and this one in NSW. https://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/Porsche-Cayman-2016/SSE-AD-5486047/?Cr=10 (Love the colour and a few nice options) This one also in NSW. https://www.carsales.com.au/dealer/details/Porsche-Cayman-2016/OAG-AD-15763457/?Cr=4 (Carbon ceramic brakes, although looks nice, i wonder if the car has had a hard time on track and also future replacement cost for the brakes themselves) Thoughts anyone?

1q2w3e4r Posted 6August, 2018 Report Share Posted 6August, 2018 They are costly to replace, however only if tracking the car heavily and frequently. They'll last a lifetime of road use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
