What’s the most valuable 911 you can buy?

[t1grm]

Just out of curiosity really. Looking at all the 911 variants that have been made over the past 40 odd years which one would be the most expensive to buy today bearing in mind the following qualifiers:

911 GT1 not included
No special history (e.g. famous owner)
More or less factory spec (no Gembellea, RUF or converted race cars)
Average miles and good condition for age

Would it be a 993 GT2, a 996 GT2, a brand new fully specced turbo or a rare 60’s model?

[verysideways]

I reckon it's gotta be a 73 RS of some description (or maybe the 74 RSR?), or a RHD 993 GT2 (as was discussed just last week).

Just IMHO of course.

VS
993 C2

2:7RS is a beaut but i doubt it would be more than a speced up 996TT or GT2

959 ?

That's not a 911. Besides I think you can pick up 959's for 100K now which is less that a fully loaded turbo or RHD 993 GT2.

top recent price for a lightweight RHD 73 RS was £125K, so not far adrift.

Competition 911`s go higher i.e 2.8 RSR, ST etc

150K for an exceptional 2.7RS?

The 74 3.0 RS is beginning to fetch some serious money.

I think they are rarer than the 2.7RS, and only now becoming more popular.

I have not seen one under £125,000, and the red one below is more than £150,000.

Sob Sob Sob...........I could have had a lovely 2.7 RS white and blue for £35K in 1993...........I am allways destined for poverty!

No doubt an original 911R circa 1967 is the most valuable car to bear the 911 monica it was the daddy to the whole ST RS breed but a le Mans winning 911 variant must be up there

[vic cohen]

3 0 RS sold in last 2 months ,better than red one !£130k.....private sale .

Egon Evertz,orange car ,as raced 3 0 rsr at auction last month £270k [inc premium]

[Marki]

I knew these were expensive but i had no clue they were worth so much

[iguana]

Think 911R is still the daddy price wise, so few of them Im not even sure what is a fair market price is maybe £200k? certainly in excess of a mint RHD '73 RS (LWT)anyway, & as Melv says they can get £150k -yet was a chap tracking a real RHD LWT at Brands the other day! good lad

I mean cripes even the much more common RHD tourings have £80-90k price tags nowdays even LHD STs (with race history) etc have commanded over £100k.

The much bigger money in older cars is in things like 904s & 906s etc £250k-400k.

[lightweight]

Karen at autofarm will find you a pukka ST for £200K or a 911R for double that!

[vic cohen]

Well if ur now going this route 2.8 rsr if u can find one ...........

904 sold as production road going .............

Highest in last year for 2.7 rs i ve seen £128k ,virtual one owner car from Germany sold here has anyone seen one done at higher??

I met a lucky so & so who paid sub £30k for a real touring from some fella who really didnt know what he had, was just an old poker to him! it was a really nice geniuine car too needing no work, thats one of the best automotive deals ive heard of in quite a long while.

[dds1]

were there any road legal 935's? if so they must fetch a pretty packet?

Its got great provenace too coz ive driven it, which can surely only increse the value


Unfortunatly though so too has el badger murderer Domster, which I'm afraid CS with that sort of downer on the car means its now worth £2.57 and a curlywirly, so I'll be generous & give you a fiver for it
