Not to get too geeky about it, but it's pretty obvious that MPower used yesterday's spot rate of 1.33 because 3000 Euros is almost exactly $4000 dollars. But my comment about the soft market for 18" 987S wasn't based on currency conversion.
1. There's fitment issues for 986 owners
2. Obviously 987 S owners have them or "better"
3. The market is restricted to 05-06 model year base owners as they're not fitted for TPMS, but many of these owners have upgraded rims
4. Track users aren't going to pay $4000 for limited use wheels
4. The market is not only soft but declining. For example, in 2005 Wheel enhancements were selling the rims-only for $2,500 but they're now offered at $1500. Obviously, used tires aren't worth $2500.
