Just bought this on eBay, so I thought I would share it with you:

1989 Porsche Price List - All Models:
https://www.porscheclubgb.com/legacy/clientftp/Register/996/misc/1989_Price_List.pdf

And from a previous post, this is the 1989 911 Brochure:

Thanks for that Richard. Makes for fascinating reading. If anyone is after a price comparitor, the point was made on another forum that the average price of a house in the UK in 1988 was £44,000!
These were cars for the very well heeled!
 
I was a bit surprised at the price of the 911 Club Sport. I always thought that it was a Porsche "less is more" thing, but it seems like less was indeed less in this case.
 
Great read. I have a SSE and judging by the new price compared to a Turbo, it's no wonder they are so rare! Only about 7k less! But 10k more than a standard 3.2.

 
Two points of interest to me,
- no mention of the 964's which were available in 1989
- and that the Turbo's even in 1989 were around £100k, which is roughly where they always have been over the the last 25 years (giver or take the odd £10k)
 
It was the slant nose that cost £100K, the standard turbo was only £57K. So the price of a house just for a little more power and some different wings/headlights.

I don't have it anymore but I did have a photocopy of adverts from the Sunday Times from the late 80s with adverts for second hand turbos at £160K!
 
Wow, cheers, mine is a 91 S2 cab, always reckoned they were about 30 grand new, must have been nearer 40, christ, allowing for inflation that would be almost 80 grand now, more expensive than a Boxster is and creeping into lower end 911 prices, the original owner must have been minted. We got a new Golf GTI the same year, MK2 8 valve (I won it) and that was £10,435 on the road, so a 944 was three times the price even for the cheaper coupe, the cab was five grand dearer, madness !
 
So, if you do a bit of extrapolation that makes a 1991 944 Turbo cab at least £47,000 list, so that one for sale at Maltons is now put into perspective. A car with less that three years of average mileage for just about 50% off. I am that soldier, my 944 had 27,000 miles when I bought it in Dec 2005, but it has been used and now has 45,000 miles; the vendor gradually dropped the £17,000 asking price to £12,500.
 
I think the slant nose was built in the 10,s not 100,s not to my liking,also my3.2sport targa has a semi solid spare wheel ,suspension lowered and hard as hell which is all part of aM30 race pack fitted when built in Germany
