Know What Your 993 Is Worth.
I got tired of guessing what 993s are worth, so I started collecting every auction result I could verify. There are 426 of them here now, 257 of them in the 2019–2026 valuation bands that power the calculator below. Every price is a hammer price from Bring a Trailer and Cars & Bids, with PCarMarket and Collecting Cars and Hemmings being added, and the dataset grows every week.
One thing to know: these are auction results. What a car hammers for and what it lists for are different numbers, and this site only tracks the first kind.

What is this 993 worth?
Every car is valued from sales of the same model, body, and transmission. Nothing is averaged across the range.
Pick the car, enter the mileage, and run it. If the band doesn't have enough verified sales yet, the calculator says so instead of guessing.

What the data shows so far
The best-covered car here is the Carrera, with 113 sales in the bands. Across the whole set, the median hammer is $112,000.
92% of the banded sales are manuals, the rest Automatic/Tiptronic. The mix moves as the dataset grows, and the model pages break it down car by car.
This is a young dataset next to the 996's. It launched with the sales above and backfills every week; the bands and medians are computed from the data each time, so what you see is what the sales say today.

Buying a 993?
The free Buyer's Guide covers all-in bidding math, how to read a listing, and the checks that matter on these cars.
How this works
- Every sale here was collected and verified from a public auction result. Asking prices never enter the values.
- Valuations come from sales of the same model, body style, and transmission in the same mileage band. Three or more sales make a median; one or two show their actual prices; none means the calculator says so.
- The 993 years, 1994–1998 are kept apart throughout.
