Porsche People. Whats This Porsche Worth? I need Help 1980 911sc

[Jeremyrx]

I am A VW Bus guy for starters... I don't know Porsche nor will I pretend to.
Long story short some close Retired friends of mine have had this beautiful Porsche for about 15 years.. They bought it in 2005 with 42,000 miles on it for 25,000$ They called me the other day and said we want to sell the Porsche but don't know what its worth and I said I'll try to help so that lead me to the Samba.. The Car now has 46,0000 miles on it. Which is extremely low for the year. Its dusty but beautiful, and it literally sits in a garage under a car cover. The seats, carpet , headliner, door panels door jambs or anything that you think would have wear is beautiful and unworn.
The problem that I am having is I look on Ebay and on here and I see these priced anywhere from 20,000 for a beater to 50,000 for a really clean one. I really want to get them a fair price for their car. Im not really looking for someone that wants to flip it and make money I'd like to find someone that will take care of it but also drive it, and hopefully keep it for a long time.
Anyhow if any of you enthusiasts can help put a price on it , that would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!!!

Geeze an 85 MPH Speedo and 55 MPH marked in red! One big factor is, was it serviced during all those years and are there records for this.

NADA says low $28,800, avg $37,500, and high $63,200. OEM price was $31,950.

I would say a low mile original paint car that is near perfect with all of the books records tool kit and tire inflator is worth 50 thousand. By the way the clutch cable needs adjustment!

As far as services there are some receipts. I drove the car on Monday and it’s nice. It’s tight and it’s got some pep to it. I checked the oil and it is clean as new but I would also assume it could use a service. I will confirm but I don’t think it has seen daylight in 5 years. The owner kept the battery disconnected and would start it every so often to keep everything moving. One issue is when you’d turn the air conditioning on it works but it kind of made a whistle noise. Sounds like something needed lubed. Also the radio you can turn it on and it works but cuts out periodically probably a ground wire or something I did not investigate it.
As far as the 85 mph speedometer and the 55 in red does that mean anything good or bad or is that just how they did it on those years?

The comment about the 85 mph was just a jab at the gov't thinking that would save gas by limiting how high the speedo registered - a sign of the day back then.

Providing the car has all original paint and maintenance receipts I have to concur with one of dr914 - should be in $45-50K range. That's an awesome color, it's a coupe and it has low miles. A winning combo. If I didn't already own 3 aircooled cars I'd be all over it.

Just have them put it on Bringatrailer. Season is starting, should be able to get most money for it right now!
