Really ?

Could understand if it was RHD and/or a clubsport but its not either.

Examples at T Schmitz just a few months ago for 150-190k Euro.

Is this the nail in the coffin ? Has the bubble finally gone completely silly ?

There are still examples around on the continent in that price range. There are also other 993 and 964 RS advertised for as much as 300k Euros.

Ask Amari lol, not the best pedigree for a SOR, so many better outlets with contacts so can only assume the owner fell for the "I've got a buyer lined up for £100k more, honest" lol

Whatever happened to the 993 turbo he could not shift last year and he kept moving the price £10's of k every week, mmmmmm

The blue 993 Turbo sold for quite a bit, it took a while though.

And the RS isn't SOR, it was purchased last week along with a few others from the same collection.

Pretty much where I suggested in my post.
Said without malice, you need to do your homework chap smile
Start by establishing what the Riviera blue car went for earlier this year, I think you'll find that would be a good indicator.

Really don't see why RHD command a premium, they were designed as LHD.
Another dealers' idiocy

agree they were designed and drive better LHD ..... but RHD are often a lot rarer and most people prefer RHD in the uk. the one thing that I wish my RS was is LHD instead of RHD, but that is not a complaint smile

RHD cars are for girls, I thought everyone knew that tongue out

As for why RHD cars command bigger prices, it's very simple, it's a numbers game.

Given the mainland chinese market is LHD, given the potential numbers involved purely as a % of population, once that one opens up with regards to import rules the pricing discrepancy between RHD/LHD will be far reduced?

In the later cars 964/993 RHD used to be more here in the home market but I thought they were about the same these days? Just buy the best availble either LHD or RHD?

I prefer RHD but that's becauSe I live in the UK

Always preferred the shape of a 964 to the 993 RS personally
