    $200K isn't much of a reach... although if I understand the listing the Speedster was apparently restored before 1982 (when they weren't worth much) and has been sitting around since then. A real barn find is one that hasn't been "improved" since it left the Porsche factory in the '50s.

    There were only ~140 black ones, so if that's original it's a neat car.

    I think the seller is optimistic about how it "wouldn't take much" to get them back to new condition. There may only be 8750 miles on the 930, but after 30 years I don't think anyone's going to add oil and gas and drive off.

    Great cars... lots of work.
