sandy468 Posted 22December, 2015 Report Share Posted 22December, 2015 Looks more like a Porsche 944 . some people must smoke a lot of things Hahha my thoughts exactly "what's he smokin? It is a sensitive point amongst people who paid the local tax Best not discuss around here The local tax? Meaning buying Aust delivered and paying our pumped up new car prices re taxes? bargain! You could get the import and a spare 996 tip for when it is in the shop.Makes sense to do that Coastr, and yeah when did buying Aust cars vs O/S cars and paying a premium make sense (except for rust)? But still doesn't stop nearly everyone preferring an Aust car over an import and paying the extra in reality ...I guess you pay 30 less for an import and get 30 less back at the other end...or 60 less backif its doubled over 5 years - Ah it's a Porsche! Sorry doubled next year!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeeM Posted 22December, 2015 Report Share Posted 22December, 2015 Seems like the 66 and not so original 912 at Autohaus has a deposit taken for $115k. So it actually sold for $115k or? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've put up wanted ads:) I'm looking for something I'll be keeping. So must love what I see. I personally think if you're not going to buy something that's for sale, but it's not advertised, pass it onto the forum. symsy, Mike D'Silva and AMG 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have a Minerva Blue 930 and purchased around the same time that one was up on carsales. I think the dealer at the time was asking 79k? This was September 2014.Edit: I read the description...doh!

This was September 2014.Edit: I read the description...doh!The car in the link is im pretty sure the one im talking about …..was at Oldtimer also and yes has the writeup as per the advert but lots and I say lots of other stories..I do know where it is , well at least i did till a couple fo months ago and im pretty sure its still there ..maybe theres a slim chance the owner flicked it as I know hes an overseas worker and comes back on holidays and its that season.Some fuel , alternator and possible other niggles . Anyway , just beware ..know what your getting…….. probably two different cars ..but maybe not if thats the ownership story , I cant be sure , I know it was QLD import and I believe that it has never been registered here and maybe not had all monies paid for that to happen.All felt complicated to me ..so as not to bitch about a car that I cant be sure of , I would say this , I would have bought if it, were there were some fact, but with the lack of clarity and few answers. I would have also dealt with the rust and issues at the right price.. the right price and circumstances never seem to eventuateI think the other 930 tasty imports discussed and I have seen sold have represented probably better value ..the Adelaide silver car and the Melbourne 930 snapped up ...

Car is being moved after Christmas.I also did a bad bad thing, I bought a 996 C4S last night.996 c4s is a good looking car. Good to know what the market is really saying about 964 values. Everything seems to be going through a bit of a correction right now. $70k+ seems a little on the low side. I would have thought we would at least have an 8 Infront.

reggiegums Posted 23December, 2015 Report Share Posted 23December, 2015 996 c4s is a good looking car. Good to know what the market is really saying about 964 values. Everything seems to be going through a bit of a correction right now. $70k+ seems a little on the low side. I would have thought we would at least have an 8 Infront. Thats what I thought. But I have to admit that my car is a little rough cosmetically. The motor is noisy so I'll get RJP in Perth to have a look at it. You would agree that the 964 pulls differently though the rev, unlike the varioram 993 that has torque all though the rev range. 964s lurch on the higher rev.What are your thoughts on a respray in the original colour? Does a respray affect the value? Is there a certain brand that I have to use to maintain originality? Do I have to take it back to bare metal?Always liked the wide body of the c4s and the smoothness. People hate the all wheel drive but after driving the 964c4, I like the slightly heavier front steering feel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
