Only got to ride in it a couple times though... I think he only put about 800 miles on it before he sold it.

I realize old 911's have been appreciating to high values for a while now...
That is something I am painfully aware of - LOL - as back in 1983 I bought my BMW 2002 over a 1968 911. Both the 2002 and 911 that I was looking at in 1983 were ~ $6,000. While I do admit, the 2002 was the better car for me and what I needed at the time, the values of the old original 911's just kept going north whereas my 2002 was (more or less) stagnant... I should have bought the 911... LOL Still - That is an exceptional car and unique configuration - but JEEZZEE.... I had flashbacks when I saw that car in the link - the color of the 911 I looked at was the same. LOL

I saw that auction and last weekend I saw what must be that cars twin in Vienna, VA; green, soft window targa. Similar condition. I actually thought it was the same car at first but the wheels were different.
Anyhoo, it was being driven by a young couple, parked on the street, and being used to transport a large dog. I wanted to ask if they’d seen the BaT auction. |

Bringing this thread around to the beginning, here's a preserved 1993 Fox body GT that is already doing numbers.
Might be the new high water mark for non-Cobra Fox bodies? Anyway, I had a Reef Blue GT back in the day and it's a really cool color. https://bringatrailer.com/listing/19...ang-gt-5-0-10/ |

I always liked that color, but was not a fan of the two-tone GTs with the lower cladding.

It would be cheaper to just buy a mid-2000s V8 Silverado or F-150 and swap it to a 5-speed. The driving experience would be roughly the same as a Fox body, except the braking would be vastly better.
