993 pricing really took off the past 12-18 months. A quality, documented, no-stories widebody (C2S or C4S) with low miles (<20) is easy +$60. Mid mileage cars are +$45,000 all day long.

I owned a 1997 993 Turbo for 4 years and drove it 40,000 miles. Maintenance and tires costed me about $7,000 per year. I sold it this summer for +$35,000 MORE than I paid for it. So, I drove one of the greatest air cooled cars for 4 years and 40,000 miles for free!!:dance:

The 993 market is very-very hot.
