I may be wrong but having previously used both back to back over a few years the switchgear and quality of plastics, materials etc feels a notch above in the 964 but that may just be an illusion who knows (i've never made a conscious effort to ever look it just feels that way). As others have said both cars were made at the zenith of a period where quality was very important. Just look at the way the Mercedes were made from that period especially the R107 SL, SEL and SEC. Current mainstream higher end cars are a bit of an embarrassment by comparison IMO. I know there was a massive price hike when the 964 C2 was released and Porsche claimed that 87% of the components of the car were completely different or re engineered - perhaps this was BS to justify the huge price hike. On the 964 oil leak issues as pointed out a fair few were caused by using the wrong oil!

Might be good - but, when selling a car, why do so many people struggle to take decent photographs rolleyes
What I'm struggling with is the description. Part of which says:

'The car has an exceptionally low, genuine mileage of 58k and has been kept in amazing condition. Fully dry, never had any oil leaks'

If that's the case it'll be just about the first H reg 964 that doesn't have any leaks/weeps. Those of us with the early cars either live with the annoyance of the leaks or get the engine rebuilt and have the heads modified to the later style that came with gaskets. To state that it has no leaks is quite a claim! I'll bet removing the engine undertray might reveal a different story.
Sold in a flash as expected. Anyone on here bought it?

Link still looks live to me. Looks overpriced!
Nope the 58k mile 964 C2 is defo sold in a flash privately - it was lovely with a good spec.

The Hairpin 33k mile manual 964 C2 sold for £60k.

Hexagon sold a very low miles Jap import tiptronic 964 C2 for £60k a few days ago too - car was stunning.

Interesting thread for me... I'm thinking of selling my RHD Black on Black Manual C2 and I guess these ads help me price it...I'm lucky as it's blessed with a bullet proof service history, engine rebuild at 90k and lots of tlc (and money!!) from me to make it good quality with original parts and cup wheels etc etc.... its done 122k but i still guess the £49.5k mark from the above ads. But will it keep going up?............

Regret in yrs to come is my biggest fear if I list it
The Hexagon car had only done 18,000 miles and sold for £60k as a tiptronic. I do not see a big gap between RHD and LHD values as these cars are in strong demand throughout Europe. Rightly or wrongly mileage is a massive factor and at 122,000 miles if you want to sell your car rather than it sitting in the classified I'd say £35k is its money. Very nice buy for someone though with engine rebuild etc. In your shoes I'd put another 80,000 miles on it and enjoy it in the knowledge its virtually free motoring.

18s have no place on a 964.

I think I would rather have a battered real RS and use as intended, than a mint replica... what do they go for now?
Not sure u'll have to ask the racers like Rance re 18s. Can't see u getting even a battered RS for less than £150k so JZM car seems decent value at least on the face of it.

They do if it has big reds. 17's won't fit! Don't be too precious about authenticity
The big red conversion works extremely well on the 964 as do many other upgrades. It's modern underpinnings allow truly wonderful opportunities without the need for Carlos fandango and his merry men

Forgot to mention I'm not sure an RS would see which way the JZM Rep went on track i.e. 320bhp 3.8 in a very light 1000-1200kg car with stiffened shell = rapid. Super RSR spec!

Emphasis on the word 'once'. What's it worth now? smile
Had a look for a laugh £725k for a 3 bed flat nr Willesden - unbelievable. I'd hate to think how much the big houses across the other side of South Hampstead cricket club are now which is right opposite to this flat. They were £1m in those days so must £3m-£4m + now in an area where you'll most likely get mugged and stabbed if you look a bit out of place.

I don't disagree with much of what you say. I think the low miler garage queens have skewed the market so that everyone thinks their 964 is worth £40K+. Yet the ever increasing number in the classifieds indicates that they're not selling. Hence why I mentioned my own experience of pitching a well maintained, honest high miler well below the top asking prices had attracted little interest. So, with signs of the soggy winter ending I think it's time to bring it out of hibernation, orders some new track tyres and make some bookings. biggrin
Maybe provide link on this thread?
