Welcome to the March 2026 Porsche Market Update. The spring auction season kicked into high gear this month, headlined by the massive sales at Amelia Island.

Whether you're shopping for a multi-million dollar hypercar or a $10k weekend toy, the Porsche market remains incredibly dynamic.
Let's dive into the data and look at the high and low sales across all 16 major Porsche model families for March 2026.
1. 356 (1948-1965)
The 356 market remained strong in March 2026, with exceptional examples commanding premium prices at Amelia Island auctions. While the entry point has crept up, dedicated enthusiasts can still find honest driver-quality cars if they're willing to put in some elbow grease.
HIGH PRICE: $179,200 — 1965 Porsche 356 C Cabriolet
Sold at Gooding & Company's Amelia Island auction, this Dolphin Grey 356 C Cabriolet from the Tommy Trabue Collection represents the pinnacle of the model's final year. As one of just 588 built for 1965 and retaining its matching-numbers engine, it's a blue-chip collectible that brought serious money.
BARGAIN PRICE: $42,900 — 1964 Porsche 356 SC Coupe
A remarkable find at Mecum Glendale, this White over Black 356 SC Coupe sold for a very approachable price. Featuring the desirable 1.6L flat-four, a 4-speed manual, and a rare factory sunroof, it's an excellent driver-quality example that proves you can still get into a genuine 356 without breaking the bank.
2. 914 (1970-1976)
The mid-engine 914 continues to offer one of the most engaging driving experiences per dollar in the vintage Porsche world. March saw strong results for well-preserved 2.0L models, while modified examples offered great value for those prioritizing smiles over matching numbers.
HIGH PRICE: $35,250 — 1976 Porsche 914 2.0L
This final-year Light Ivory 914 commanded top dollar on Bring a Trailer. Showing just 49,000 miles and equipped with both Appearance and Performance groups, plus classic 15" Fuchs wheels, it's a benchmark example of Porsche's collaborative sports car.
BARGAIN PRICE: $16,000 — V8-Powered 1975 Porsche 914
Purists might look away, but this Electric Blue Pearlcoat 914 offers serious performance for the price of a used Honda Civic. With a V8 swap mated to a 5-speed manual, this is a purpose-built canyon carver that traded hands for an absolute steal.
3. 924 (1976-1988)
Transaxle Porsches are finally getting their due, and the 924 market is showing distinct stratification between significant historical examples and accessible track toys.
HIGH PRICE: $75,600 — 1978 Porsche 924 Turbo ex-Monte-Carlo/Safari Rally

4. 928 (1978-1995)
Porsche's V8 grand tourer remains a polarizing but beloved model. Low-mileage S4 and GTS variants continue to pull strong numbers, while higher-mileage examples present some of the best grand touring value on the market today.
HIGH PRICE: $48,500 — 1988 Porsche 928 S4
This stunning Guards Red S4 showed just 30,000 miles from new. The combination of pristine condition, iconic 16" forged aluminum wheels, and that legendary 5.0-liter DOHC V8 proved irresistible to bidders on Bring a Trailer.
BARGAIN PRICE: $17,580 — 1988 Porsche 928 S4
Also in Guards Red but with 137,000 miles, this S4 demonstrates the massive price delta mileage creates in the 928 market. For under $18k, the new owner got a mechanically sound V8 autobahn cruiser.
5. 944 (1982-1991)
The 944 Turbo (951) remains the sweet spot of the transaxle era. March results showed that while pristine examples command a premium, there are still deals to be had for those willing to take on higher mileage.
HIGH PRICE: $31,900 — 1988 Porsche 944 Turbo
Offered from the Magnus Walker Collection at RM Sotheby's, this Almond Beige Metallic Turbo brought strong money despite showing 131,913 miles, proving that celebrity provenance and exceptional maintenance records add significant value.

6. F-Model / Longhood 911 (1964-1973)

BARGAIN PRICE: $91,000 — 1973.5 Porsche 911T Coupe
Finding a longhood under six figures is getting difficult, making this $91k sale noteworthy. This late-1973 "1973.5" model features the desirable Bosch K-Jetronic CIS injection and sold as a charming Sepia Brown survivor with a California history.
7. G-Model / Impact Bumper 911 (1974-1989)

HIGH PRICE: $240,800 — 1987 Porsche 911 Turbo Coupe

8. 964 (1989-1994)
The 964 market has stabilized after years of meteoric rise, but exceptional examples and Turbos still command massive premiums. The blend of classic styling with modern amenities (like power steering and ABS) keeps demand high.
HIGH PRICE: $405,000 — 1991 Porsche 911 Turbo

BARGAIN PRICE: $110,000 — 1990 Porsche 964 Carrera 2 Coupe
A "bargain" 964 is relative these days. This Black C2 sold on PCARMARKET features an extensive RS-style transformation including Recaro Pole Position seats and Euro bumpers. For $110k, the buyer got the RS look without the $300k+ price tag.
9. 993 (1994-1998)
The last of the air-cooled 911s maintains its legendary status. March 2026 saw massive numbers for modified Turbos, while standard Carreras (especially Cabriolets) offered a more accessible entry point.

HIGH PRICE: $70,000 — 2004 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S Coupe
A staggering result for a non-Turbo 996. This Black C4S commanded $70k thanks to its incredibly low 9,000 miles from new. It's proof that collector-grade 996s are now a reality.
BARGAIN PRICE: $32,000 — 2003 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S Coupe
The flip side of the 996 market: this Seal Grey Metallic C4S with 140,000 miles sold for less than half the price of the low-mileage example above. You still get the widebody stance and 6-speed manual, making this a brilliant driver's buy.
11. 997 (2004-2013)
Often cited as the perfect blend of modern reliability and classic 911 proportions, the 997 market is incredibly strong. Manual Mezger Turbos are highly sought after, while early standard Carreras offer excellent value.

13. 992 (2020-Present)
The current generation 911 market remains robust, with allocations for GT models still incredibly difficult to secure, driving auction prices well above MSRP.
HIGH PRICE: $315,000 — 2026 Porsche 911 GT3 Touring
