It would be interesting to see their sourcing. While I love my 99 with 77k miles, I don’t see it selling over about $8k at best. They don’t breach ten thousand on the auction sites I’ve seen, and frequently the ask is just over ten on FB Marketplace in the area, and I’m sure they aren’t getting that.

I keep getting notes from Car Fax and Carvana telling me that my 98' w/100,000 (non-S) is worth about $4,000....and I pretty much agree.

To me, it's worth much more, not in dollars but in enjoyment each summer.

Where do you get the data shown in these charts?
Auction sales listings on CLASSIC.COM are from publicly available data by major collector car auctions around the world.

85 data points over 5 years is statistically insignificant for the 986, I would suggest. Sales at collector auctions means little to nothing in the real world, unless you are interested in a collector grade Boxster.

The data is skewed because of the 2021 & 2022 values - note most of the data pts are above the ave line during those yrs. Those were COVID yrs when money was burning holes in pockets and car values appreciated. Throw those 2 yrs out and the ave line drops $2K. Today's values are prob still high as values settle back to reality.

Interesting data, but context is important. Certainly can't make any judgements w/o understanding what was going on. We may never see a period in time where all cars appreciate like they did from 20-22.
