The 67S had no drain holes in the c pillar, incorrect wheels, wrong bumper overriders, and there was something going on with the back panel area. Otherwise it was a star....

Now that I look very closely at the far-away photos, I notice the back right rear looks out of whack. Shame as I really think it's a interesting color combo.

Apples and oranges but if you are running a circus/sideshow it's not hard to find "marks". Fast money and big egos often go hand in hand and the dick measuring contests come next.

Nice cars are still selling for top dollar. I believe many of the low "sold" figures that you're seeing now are for bad cars or from buyers who have to sell.
This was a litmus test for me two weeks ago at Russo & Steel: An early 72 S coupe (9112300020), sport seats, fac A/C, 2.7 on orig case. The car was solid with no evidence of crash damage or rust but needed a complete resto. Bid up to 170 with no sale. (Call it 190 after fees and shipping.) Here's the significance: More than likely an enthusiast with 190k laying around (doubtful) or "spec" buyers bid it up (more likely). Either way, more than one buyer thought spending 190k and then at least another 60k to restore it was a decent investment. It tells me that there are still plenty of people out there who believe we still haven't reached the ceiling. In this case the seller and the bidders.
A car like this typically attracts a "wholesale" buyer, not an impatient, nouveau collector who throws money away. This one car spoke volumes to me about the current market.
Maybe, but you're old and your hearing's not so good these days.

March results in Sports Car Market from Silverstone: "50 Years of 911" hot rod base on a '77, powered by a tweaked 993 engine selling for $267,000!
I didn't "get it" but the sale provided more proof that some Porsche 911 buyers will spend money regardless of the "provenance".
