I had an offer for a perfect 964 RS a couple of years ago, car was a collector's car but he needed the money (2008) and there was no real market for it in winter time, so he offered me the car, with only 22000 km and in grade 1 condition (original paint, no accidents, just perfect, german car, no racing) for 50k EUR flat. I actually wanted it but my wife said I am crazy and after some thinking, especially after not knowing what the future will bring (financially), I declined the very good offer. He sold the car to somebody else and now that same person sells the very same car, with some work (seats and paint) done on it but only 25000 km for....hold your breath...100k EUR. Ouch.
I would have driven it, not collected it but it is amazing how many people are looking for used 964 and 993 over here in Germany, you barely find a car in a good condition, the prices are high and most "good" cars are actually imported from the US. Somebody I know flies over twice a year to buy used 964 and 993, to bring them to Germany. In the past German buyers actually avoided US cars as much as possible but now there is a huge market and there aren't enough cars...so go figure.
Maybe the Spyder will gain value too at some point, unless Porsche decides to build a 981 Spyder, which isn't necessarily excluded.
