Whats for sale (in Australia ) and interesting Thread


Recommended Posts

Seems to have been on and off the market for a while, I know it has been previously discussed on typ 901 before. Nice looking car, dig the colour.

Been centre stage here before a great car, with a bonafide and diligent owner. Bit like the orange 912/6... they've got a whiff of not been pucka (maybe other?) ...though i reckon the market has almost caught up with listed $

Hey guys, I dunno where exactly to post this, but...

Looking for some nice 911 SC Coupe with 3.0-3.2 engine up to 30000$. Should be my first Porsche so I`m trying to find something not super rare or perfectly restored but ready to drive car.

And that`s what I`ve found:

http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/robertson/cars-vans-utes/porsche-911-sc-34000/1056389827

A bit more than I looking for, but...

and this:

http://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/Porsche-911-1979/SSE-AD-1148831/?Cr=2&sdmvc=1

From Queensland to Victoria - so, need road worthy... And engine upgrade and ICE (like 5 grand)...

What do you guys think?

p.s. I`m sorry, if this is really wrong thread.

The blue SC is very nice, I had a look at it few times and had a drive. Very clean and straight body, good interior and nice sounding engine. If the Carrera 3.2 from Perth did not work out, I was going to do a PPI and make an offer on the blue SC.

 

Good luck with the search, I found a 1986 911 Carrera 3.2 US import RHD converted in Perth close to your price range. The car needs few things done to make it right, but is a great driver with a good motor, gearbox and running gear and no rust. And as AC79 pointed out, have a budget to get things sorted out, regardless what you get. 

 

Over the next few months I will get things done (mostly cosmetic; carpets, rubbers, paint, etc), but will enjoy driving it as the work gets done.

Thanx for cheering up, I'll put an eye on blue one :)

I'm not in rush, willing to work with a car slowly, doing one thing at a time. Good luck with yours mate :)

It's kinda fun to plug some figures into the above

Bargain price cf. new , if you can live with it's appearance and the ongoing plummeting value (most people have neighbours)

Bah.  When Panameras are $40k for a 100km example, then I'll start looking.  The first guy paid 160k in deprecation.  The next guy will pay 80k.  The guy after that is the one to be - even if you pay $20k in deprecation (which you will...) and you pick a good example, you'll have a much nicer life.

 

Buying new Porsches in Australia - sport of Kings!  Thank you to all who selflessly participate (and please keep the service receipts)

$280k when sold new and now $130k for a 2011 model. Now that's huge depreciation.

 

Well, it's like buying a 993 Turbo, driving it for not-quite-three years, then tearing up your insurance and pushing it off a bridge.  Like I said, a sport of Kings.

 

If you think that is bad, you should see the hit taken on big Benz coupes.
