Don't know if this is a Porsche-ism, but some autos will default to a lower gear, like 3rd, if something goes wrong. That way you can still slowly accelerate from a stop, and still do freeways speeds (albeit at high rpm), to limp home. Maybe the tranny is losing a sensor input or having a computer problem and is going into a "limp home" mode.

Yesterday, I'm driving back from Tooele to Herriman, doing a steady
60, and the car shifts into 4th. I let off the gas a little but it
stays in 4th. I manually shift it back to 5th after a few seconds, it
automatically shifts back to 4th. Next I step on the gas and it
shifts to 3rd. It's like the mapping is off. I then shift into

I've had experience recently with premium jumps. It always works against the insured. My son's nearly new car was T-boned on the driver's side by a woman who ran a red light. There were witnesses. Her company fought it and it went to "subrogation." Eventually they admitted her being at fault and paid up in full. In the mean time, to get my son back on the road, I paid our company's deductible and had my insurance cover the very extensive (car almost totalled, but thanks to today's safety systems son unhurt) repairs.

One other thing you may want to consider is the potential for winning
the battle with your insurance company but ultimately loosing the war.
I had a similar experience with State Farm a number of years ago with
a 914 (small world) that was damaged when I hit 2 deer. They planned
on totalling the car and settling for less that I believed the car was

Stu's link is the best yet! This gives a good idea of FMV.
If Excellence (which tends to be conservative; they don't
over rate) gives it a range of $8418 to $19262, you are, as
they say, in the driver's seat. Selling this to the Ins Co
is another story, but this is looking good.

Great Club effort. Lots of brains.

Carl and Darrell give great advice.

Another place to look is Excellence Magazine. Every month they do a "Market
Report" for used Porsches. November 2009 they did Mid-engine cars. They
break market values down by year, engine type and condition. It is an
excellent series (each month they do a different model) written by Bruce

As far as the condition of the car, anyone that has seen it would say
it is not a show car by any means however as this was my dedicated
autocross car, appearance was secondary and I still have quite a bit
of money and even more time invested in it.

I think at one point or another i have either replaced or upgraded
