An opportunity has come up on a 1996 993TT Arena Red with supple leather Grey interior.
Some facts are...
1. 2 owners
2. Serviced at original selling dealer for entire life
3. Orig MSRP 119k plus
4. Clean Carfax
5. Very nice driver condition exterior (chips in front and on hood)
6. Interior excellent
7. 120,000 miles
8. Interior has the wood grain trim (9000. option)
The car is not on the market but being offered to me personally. Any thoughts or input on this car and its value would be very much appreciated.

i would say
$90k- 100K
there are very few in that price range. And a C-4S is almost there (which is a Turbo wannabe
the milage is the only issue. But car looks great.

I bought one in May, arena red over black leather. based on the digging I did at the time, a large range would be 75-100. Just one ignorant Porsche consumer's opinion. Also, my experience with the fancy options is that it adds $0 to value, with very few exceptions. That dash may qualify as an exception, tho I have no idea.
OP, based on your sig you seem to be well versed on air cooled P cars if she has no leak or squeak $70s (if you're buying it as an investment piece) is a good price due to high mileage. Foremost I'll do a compression leak test and a thorough PPI.

Are you following the market? Is that a realistic price? I checked out of the air-cooled world back in 2015 or so (height of the mania) but if quality high-ish mileage 993 or 964 Turbos are down under $80k again maybe I'll unload the 997TT...
That interior is going to be polarizing on resale. We had a 1996 new, black on beige. I'm not a collector or Porsche snob. It's 25 year old technology with 120,000 miles on it. In my eyes, it should have a four in front of it, but I'm not nostalgic.
120k miles overdue for a complete rebuild internals wears out regardless of early oil changes just can't stop the wear and tear. Best is post this on Rennlist that's how I decided to buy a 964 Carrera Cup Car USA 1 of 45 ever made in 1992. The folks over there might be brutal but can give you more realistic opinion. Good luck!
