Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

2 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Watching "what's my car worth" this evening on Velocity. A '96 993 Turbo with just over 30k miles "did not sell (meet the reserve price)" at $160,000. The car was truly perfect. As new. But at $170k or so, that car would not be used daily. Simply too expensive. So that makes me think that 996's and 997.1's will start to hold their values and even rise a bit. It seems to me people are forcing up the prices of air-cooled cars simply because they want a Porsche, and there are no more "new" ones. But first and foremost they are buying a Porsche. As knowledge gets around that our generation cars are actually better cars than the 993 or 964, they will catch on.

POST 2Original post

Saw the same episode. They did mention because Air Cooled Turbo's have been on an up-ward trend, that many turbo's have come to market trying to ride the trend. Not sure about NA 996 & 997's, but agree that turbo models might start to hold their values, or even gain some.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
