Pretty much, a lot of new cars don't show up there and more importantly there are not as many Porsches out there and collectors don't part with them much. Sure a Chevelle will command big money at an auction, but, there are tons of them out there in various states of restoration. Once again, to put it in perspective...there are more Corvettes alone than all Porsches combined since day one. Ford builds more cars in one day than Porsche builds in 3 months. So logic would have itthat a collectible Porsche would not show up as much as an old muscle car or regular production Ferrari.

The few foreign cars that have appeared don't do well. The audience is mostly baby-boomers looking for American muscle cars or pre-WWII era cars for the older crowd. These guys aren't looking for old Alfas, Porsches, Healeys or Ferraris. Of course, vintage Porsches are experiencing the same bump overseas - the Boomers over there are snatching them up. With the weak dollar, it's well worth the trouble of shipping a nice pre-73 Porsche over there to sell. -- 2003 BMW 325i Black/Black 2003 BMW Z4 Black/Black >> Stay informed about: Barret-Jackson

The 1969-1973 cars are considered by most to be the classic, early 911s. They've been climbing in value for the last few years, especially the versions with MFI (mechanical fuel injection). epbrown -- 2003 BMW 325i Black/Black 2003 BMW Z4 Black/Black >> Stay informed about: Barret-Jackson

Would a well maintained one be an wise (or not) candidate for daily driving? If the vintage becomes 'famous' as ebrown suggests (I hope I hope), then it'd be a bad idea to use one as a daily driver. One of the reasons it's hard to find good 69-73s is that they immediately predated decent rust protection. Any that got driven in salt are back to iron ore by now.
