The details of this car have been debated to death on FB. It’s most likely Aust delivery, probably via tourist delivery. Another possibility is it’s PNG delivered. The consensus view is that it is at least a factory RHD 68S. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed and can confirm there was a 911 delivered to Bougainville back in the day and more than one oz delivered car sported these lights Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turra Posted 17December, 2020 Report Share Posted 17December, 2020 I actually rang him when he first had it listed (by his employee) and told him the description was quite wrong. He has since changed it but is simply fishing. It was sold last year (to him) at $220k and he has been selling a few of his cars at above market price. A W427 HSV for ~$200k? Or something. Just fishing and not worth oxygen here. luzzo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turra Posted 28December, 2020 Report Share Posted 28December, 2020 Engine has been fully rebuilt. The car is perfect. $220k was reasonable I reckon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice that it is seen as being worth that, as my engine is much more special and would annihilate a fresh rebuilt 3.2 (it also cost a lot more than a rebuilt 3.2 though). My car is very well sorted, not that I intend to sell, and mine is a converted car that is obviously for a more individual taste. I am sure most of us want to consider what our cars are worth, I know I am interested in what value I have built into mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

generalsmirnov Posted 29December, 2020 Report Share Posted 29December, 2020 Thoughts on any credibility to this? Any originality looks to be very deeply buried: https://www.carsales.com.au/cars/details/1973-porsche-911-carrera-manual/SSE-AD-6976311 I remember it last sold maybe 3 years ago?

911 Posted 29December, 2020 Report Share Posted 29December, 2020 Hi all, Just after some feedback. I've been offered a original Australian delivered coupe - 1988 Venetian Blue 911 3.2. The car has 203,000kms. The engine was rebuilt less than 10,000kms ago with receipts and the gearbox was rebuilt 35,000kms ago. I inspected the car today and I'm very happy with it. I'm still considering the purchase and am going to get a PPI done tomorrow, if all goes well. The owner is chasing $115,000. This is the top end of what I wanted to spend and ideally I was after an earlier model with the higher output motor, as I've previously owned one, but I do like the colour alot. I'm expecting the PPI to come back with a few things as they normally do, but providing there are no oil leaks or major problems is that a reasonable price to pay? Also the car does feel quite a bit sluggish compared to my previous 915 car. Is that something that is common with the later model cars?

LeeM Posted 29December, 2020 Report Share Posted 29December, 2020 Advertised as a '73, but is a forward dated '68 with unidentifiable chassis numbers? That's an interesting scenario to be faced with as a buyer 22 minutes ago, generalsmirnov said: Thoughts on any credibility to this?

No expert at all, and I've only driven two 3.2's, yet I've found the 3.2 to be more top endy and lack the bottom end grunt my '78 3.0 has. If its in good nick and checks out, then it's probably on the money KeyboardWarrior77 and tk111 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think in 87 they got the G50 gear box and the power output was reduced from what I've read. Just feels as though, it's not as responsive. Trying to understand if it's the car itself or the model. The car feels very tight and is tidy, just not as responsive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s quite noticeable. $115k for a Australian delivered G50coupe is ok value in current market of high demand and low supply Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turra Posted 29December, 2020 Report Share Posted 29December, 2020 @Wangan I will be very interested to hear what others here say. An '88 Oz delivered with receipts for gearbox and engine rebuild for $115k seems very reasonable. Be prepared to pay another $20k for other things that might be required and if thats within your budget, you'd best get your wallet out. If I saw an '88 that drives well and has history for $115k it would be in my garage. The G50 might make it feel different but others here would be better placed to answer the sluggish issue. I have a Steve Wong chip that might fit straight into it for $500 if you want it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
