deliriousga, would the rarity of this car justify the $35k premium ?

KBB is rarely correct when it comes to older cars. When I bought mine, the 5-speed '87s I found were all listed between $13K-17K, but KBB said it was worth $7K. Everyone on the 928 boards thought I got a steal at $10K for a 5-speed with 90K miles on it.

Since it's the last production year of the car, only ~250 were built and ~10% of those were 5-speeds it will command a premium. They may not get the full $69K, but it will sell for $60K+.

Edit: I confused years...in the last year of production only 90 were made and ~25% of them were 5-speeds. Got my Excellence mag today and the avg. price for the '95 year is $41K+. In the older models, the premium for a 5-speed is about 30-40% depending on condition.
