When looking for '69-73 911s, I quickly realized that S models were out of range, and I was relegated to T and E models. I bought an E for about the same price comparable Ts were going for.

I looked up the specs, and E models outperform S models from 0-100 (!), and they are even rarer than the S! Yet the S sells for twice the price of the E, which is about the same price as a T.

Am I missing something, or is the advantage of the S only apparent at extremely flat-out race tracks? For this they cost twice as much? What is your explanation for today's values? S owners...why did you pass on the E?
