D-banger Posted 29June, 2015 Report Share Posted 29June, 2015 I thought it was too good to be true to be a genuine one (not that I could come anywhere near affording it). 904-026 sold for €1.428m earlier this year.http://rmauctions.com/pa15/paris/lots/1964-porsche-904-carrera-gts/1072306amazing that they had only 180bhp MFX 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be fantastic to be able to race one in some of the classic race series they do in Europe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike-S Posted 29June, 2015 Report Share Posted 29June, 2015 Is the RS $1.3mAUD or $1.3mUS? I can see it heading to Europe at that price, an old acquaintance of mine sold his RS 2 years ago for £750k so at $1.3mAUD it's relatively cheap....To think, in 2008/9 when I worked at LaingORourke right by CTS, they had a gulf blue 3.0 Carrera in the showroom for 6 months with a $70k price tag on it. Had we won the contract I was there to work on, I promised myself (and them) I'd buy it, but we didn't so I went back to the UK and missed my lunches and coffees there with a passion. It took another 6 months for it to disappear off their website, not that I watched it or anything Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michel Posted 29June, 2015 Report Share Posted 29June, 2015 I sat in the 904 and went beep beep- very cool thing - was for sale at Duttons for 170k +this is only 1of 2 legit road registered replicas in oz out of approx 6??known to be here.Martin & Walker build these in the UK. It's petite dainty petite. and by all accounts poised and bloody quick As close as anyone's going to get to owning a pukka 904 and not worry when they drive it to their local IGA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It took another 6 months for it to disappear off their website, not that I watched it or anything I lusted after that Gulf blue Carrera3.o, too, and enquired after it. Beautiful thing with Cibies on the bonnet. At the time it was $30K more expensive than any other Carrera3.o out there. Haven't seen head not tail of it for years, obviously a coveted part of someone's collection. Mike-S 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tazzieman Posted 29June, 2015 Report Share Posted 29June, 2015 964 now extinct. Last one on carsales goneIt reminds me of fishing the lakes. All these geared up fishos with baited breath and rods...but no fish!Just give it a break over winter and they'll be back swimming around in spring. Though that might be spring of 2018 when the housing bubble has popped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

9er Posted 30June, 2015 Report Share Posted 30June, 2015 Apparently it has a cracked case. You're doing well to crack a case on these things in standard form. Obviously has been either:A: neglected mechanically (what else is neglected on it?)B: thrashed within - no, beyond an inch of its lifeC: All of the aboveI pick C.I think this car is definitely a case of 'good from far'... I have a spare case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MFX Posted 30June, 2015 Report Share Posted 30June, 2015 I have a spare roofI am seriously considering that. With the cheap entry price of say a 964 cab, and I would want to make it into a backdate hot rod anyway. I could do the panel and paint work, it is just the cost and availability of the roof.

t888 Posted 30June, 2015 Report Share Posted 30June, 2015 996 cab, $19.5k . No idea about condition - at this price it could be a bomb or maybe the owner thinks it's a boxster VIN decodes to a C4 cab. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/1999-Porsche-911-996-carrera-convertible-/271916073946 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope not and it all checks out and turns out to be a great deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
