I think I can pretty much blame Tavarish for most of my problems nowadays. Considering most of my problems are “ugh why is _____ getting so expensive!!!”

Never mind the fact that I can’t afford any of the cars I look at really anyways, but that’s not important lol.

I’m just hoping that they will drag up the prices on 924s as well. If they start going up, mine is going to get a restoration instead of the rally car treatment.

Porsches are returning to their native state, just as when they were new.

The 911 is too expensive, and 944 Turbo is only just expensive.

I keep wondering what will happen next with these prices and how long it will take for them to go back down.

Granted, that is a good looking 944, and a Turbo, but $30K?! Damn, is right.

And to think, I paid $750 for mine out of a barn 4 years ago, and had it running and on the road for under $500. Maybe I will hang on to it after all...

It’s great news for those of us who bought one at rusty-beater-pickup-truck prices and then dumped more than the purchase price back into repairs, though!

...wait, what do you mean its only the Turbos that are appreciating?

Damn that’s a good catch! I’d wait at least a few more years and see where prices go, tbh I didn’t ever imagine them going for this high in the first place but the used car market caan be a weird place, who knows....

Well the turbo are going to be the ones with the highest price going for them, but no doubt it’s going to bring up the others too.

While the Turbo/S/S2 are far more valuable than the NAs, I’ve considered holding on to my early car purely because the early 944s are getting really hard to find. Most people thought the later cars would hold their value better because of the more modern interior, modern electrical system, and it’s cast aluminum suspension components. But the earlier cars have since proved to be more rugged (all pressed steel suspension components) and easier to prep for racing. Thus the number of “stock” early cars is shrinking at an alarming rate. But finding early parts is a huge pain.

It’s going good! I’ve been really pre-occupied with work, and I foolishly bought a supercharged Nissan Xterra as a daily, so I spend most of my time catering to that things mechanical needs. But I’m still slowly working on the old 944, it’s not leaving me anytime soon.

How about you? Hope the Porsche world is treating you well!
