Sounds like the real estate market back in early 2008. The sellers think that supply is a lot more limited than it actually is and prices are in the nosebleeds.
Unfortunately for car sellers these days, this thing called the internet can enable a motivated buyer to find a car in a day.
If you can buy the car you want in a day with a specific set of requirements checked, as I read in the most recent Excellence Porsche Buyer's Guide about the pre-964 Carreras,
then the perception of supply is not really in line with the reality.

And when it comes to water-cooled Porsches, all of them except maybe the manual GT3's, there's plenty of supply.
Maybe not easy to find but they're out there waiting for a good offer.
