996 getting close to 986 prices ?
My assumption is that while fairly stagnate, the Boxster has already bottomed out and people are asking for a little bit more than they did a year or two ago, while 996s are just now bottoming out.
With word of turbos, 4 cylinders, and electric drive in the future, water cooled 6 cylinder porsches are about to be the second chapter for porsche with the first pages of the third chapter already visible in the e hybrids and now turbo GTS cayanne as well as the 919, if history repeats itself porsches latest and greatest is usually off of last years race car. Notice the comparison of the 996 gt3 and gt2 with the gt1 racecar.
Of course many of these watercooled porsches were mass produced so they are are not big collectables, but the watercooled era particularly the fore runners can likely expect to stop dropping in price at the least, the 996 is essentially bottomed out or at least will be soon, so if you want one, by my inept 17 year old analysis, now would be the time to buy.a
