Well, it's official, mine is now advertised. I updated my excel sheet and priced mine a little below the competition. Will see if I get any interest. If not, I will enjoy her for another year !
Thanks for all your input everyone.

£48k. Was that based on current asking prices or selling prices? Thanks for all your input everyone.

When the bubble does pop i wouldn't fancy having 45-50k in a 964 C2, ouch!!! great car at 25-30k but lets face it, its not 50k worth, the only reason people are paying it is because there is the belief that it is safe money or an investment not because it drives like 50k worth of car. As soon as confidence in being safe money goes it's back to just being an old 911 again.

fwiw the red c2 at svp has sold already, i would assume at 45k
That's interesting and a good sign. I will see what offers I get. I will also approach a few dealers to see what trade-in I can get as saves a great deal of hassle.pete a said:

I don't see them dropping too much if at all really. Not beyond the normal cycles of the classic car market at least. There isn't going to be any more made after all and well maintained examples are rare.

Straight question then and be honest, how much did you pay for it, 20k? 15K? It's the same car and they weren't making them anymore when you bought it either i expect.
True, but it was under valued then ;-) But you can't blame anyone for selling high, if the market will buy at that price and your car does look like a nice example.
Your advert could do with some interior shots BTW!

Agree I do think they were undervalued at £15-20k, but still don't think they're £50k.

Just to clarify, it was not a dig at your car, it looks really nice, i love 964's and it's in line with what others are asking, but as someone who is in the market for a new car with a budget of anything up to 60k i wouldn't be buying yours or any of the other at that price.But you can't blame anyone for selling high, if the market will buy at that price and your car does look like a nice example.

It's early days so I'll see how the interest goes. Good call on the interior shots though, I'll get some up as soon as I get chance.

What car 'drives like 50k worth of car'?mollytherocker said:

A Cayman GTS, 996 0r 997 GT3, mercedes s class, F type jag, .......Lots of cars and maybe it wasn't the best phrase to use so to keep things on topic i apologize for my choice of phrase.
What i was trying to get at is that we see a lovely 964 through rose tinted lenses, coupled to the fact that at the moment we all convince ourselves that it's safe money or an investment even, the average bloke in the street would piss himself if you pulled up in a 1990 964 and proudly told him you just paid £48 large for it.

No you cant get on for £50k anymore but they do drive like £50 grands worth of motor, they are overpriced as well now, f
k it they are all overpriced at the moment.
Overpriced in your view, you mean?k it they are all overpriced at the moment.Don't get me wrong, I wish they were half the price they are, but they aren't are they!
