Completely screams 80's bad guy douche mobile but these air cooled cars are highly collectable. Unlike my CDG jacket I have in the classifieds, this will slowly rise in value while I enjoy driving this with my popped Raf polo collar. Got really lucky and found a seller with too much money so got this for a steal.
I already lived up to the D-Bag factor by posting the car up in a fashion forum, so I will stay "true to size" and leave it red, but yes, a repaint would really kill the value. Normally I shy away from red, but always liked it on Porsches. Going to probably remove the whale tail, but it is slowly growing on me.
MrB, I have been looking for almost a year and was getting outbid by people on your side of the pond (mostly by German collectors who salivate over California cars). Targa's are DOPE (love the profile with the top out) and was actually looking for that or a Cab, but this coupe popped up nearby and I jumped on it. Are you looking at air cooled or the 991 (which I think is just incredible)?
Congrats on finding one! Looks to be in great condition as well.... Love those air cooled Porsches since you can tinker on them too if you are so inclined. The older you go, the closer the parallel to the VW engine and the easier it is to work on.
about a year ago I almost bought a 1967 Volkswagen kit car to refurbish as a project, but sanity took over and i left it alone since i dont have a garage to store it.
are you planning on doing any kind of modifications to it or are you gonna keep in its original condition?

Gorgeous.
I have my eye on a targa at the moment.
And they will rise fast rather than slowy in value.
which one of the targa's are you looking at?
We should have a car thread here on SZ...........
