About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Freshly restored with excellent paint, interior and top. Good major chrome but some thin trim rechromed over unfilled pits and some weak interior trim chrome. Immaculate engine compartment. Good panel fits on a generously filled body. Underbody freshly sprayed glossy black over whatever was there. A pretty car, but not as good as it first appears.

Market commentary

This is a pretty Porsche, but one skim-coated with filler and nearly non-magnetic, not that such a condition is so unusual on Porsches of this nature. The bidders bought the appearance and the up-rated S90 spec engine, not the car, and paid well more that they should.
