sleazius Posted 11November, 2021 Report Share Posted 11November, 2021 28 minutes ago, Schnell said: Yeah, which is about half what I would expect a 3.2 G50 in guards red to sell for. Import -30% minimum. Targa -20%. Not a hugely desirable body style and import cars are generally seen as a risk, especially UK cars due to all the salt. That said, if you like targas, and view the car and find it has no rust, why not? Cheaper point of entry, just don't ever think that you'll get top dollar for the car on resale because you won't, it will always be discounted compared to coupe/aussie delivered cars. 43 minutes ago, 911virgin said: https://autohaushamilton.com.au/porsche-sales/porsches-for-sale anyone after a 993 turbo?

Schnell Posted 11November, 2021 Report Share Posted 11November, 2021 I agree with what you’re saying but I’ve been in the market for nearly a year and that’s the kind of price people are asking for RHD conversion, 2.7 non matching numbers with no history. I am actually quite partial to a targa but finding anything that’s not a Frankenstein for that money has proven near impossible. if anyone has something similar to that car for a similar price. I’d love to talk! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I think you are right. The sharply priced ones seem to go overnight but anything presenting as say 10-15% above the going just sit and sit. Having seen those two Aus delivered Targas (a '76 and ?80something) go up for $95k within the last couple of months gives me good leeway when dealing with people that want $110k for a no history UK delivered car.

It's a 1977 model. Is it worth more saying It is a 1976. No. 1976 Build and Complied. But 77MY... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reedminor Posted 11November, 2021 Report Share Posted 11November, 2021 me too - and the central ac vents on the dask , and rotary knobs for door lock on the door ( except not present on this one owing to RS style doorcards). Don't know about compliance plates and reasons for dates - but both of my (77MY) c3's have had December 76 compliance plates. Presumably a few c3's ended up as Christmas presents in 1976?

on_booost Posted 11November, 2021 Report Share Posted 11November, 2021 https://collectingcars.com/for-sale/2001-porsche-911-996-carrera-1 OMFG!!! That interior hurts even my eyes...... That red Targa at these $$ if it was a non rusty hump would be a good entry point into AC ownership i would have thought.... BUT..... With the "undesirability" of the Targa (justified or otherwise) and the UK import status always hurting resale - it might be on the money??? Looks nice anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, I've returned to view it a bunch of times on the Alex H website....if I could convince my wife to spend the money, I'd have got close if not having it in the shed. I love the lapis blue and I think this internal treatment is in keeping with the external colour and both are different to the boring normality of black on black.....

Lorbek’s started at POA, then went to $1M, then to $900k, then to $800k. Tough car to value - as the one bit that makes it unique (ie. the slant nose) is disliked by most (nearly all?) of the market.
