Market commentary
Porsche 356s of all stripes have seen a consistent rise in values for the last several years due to any number of factors including strong performance, the continued success of Porsche on and off the track, and an active and supportive community. That, and theyre nice to look at. This last bit was particularly true of this 59 356A which was very nicely restored and sported a flattering color combination. The car was essentially perfect in every respect and the new owner should be very happy with a purchase that could not be reproduced for the $99,000 spent.
