Market commentary

Porsche Turbos offered explosive performance for the period and their reputation has powered them to explosive heights in recent years. This isn't nearly as expensive at Turbos were a few months ago and is among the prices brought by five of the other six sold in the Scottsdale auctions, excepting only a generous $264,000 sale at Barrett-Jackson. This would seem to be the new normal.
