I've obviously been living in a hole because I've only just noticed what's been happening to classic car prices - specifically my beloved 911.
For the first time in ages I've been looking at specialist Porsche prices. 3 years ago I was a whisker away from buying a 911 (996) GT3, 2005, 27k miles for £34k. Decided against it stupidly. I've just spotted the same motor with 34k miles for £74k.
This ones even more gutting - 911 (996) GT2. They were available when I was looking back then for £40k. Well £40-50k I guess but I had a peach lined up for the lower figure. What's happened now...

Needless to say this news has not brightened my day.
My question is what niche Porsche models are still good value and haven't gone insane? And/or is there room for even the inflated models to grow considerable further?
Give me hope I can/should still get involved at some point...
