Is that the same one that was up at RPM Technic a couple of weeks ago? They had one in the same colour with similar mileage for ~£110k, but it disappeared a few days ago. I'm wondering if it's a motivated seller punting it around on SOR.

Does anyone on here know the history of this car?

Interesting, correcting for cable, that the carrs seem to fetch more in the USA. He mentions the 4.0 can be up to $800k.

My OPC told me that 7.2 GT3s are currently experiencing a major price lift in the US

Hopefully that doesn't follow suit here.

I think it has begun already. 997.2 RS is tracking very similar to a 991.2 RS on price now.

Anyway, they need using. biggrin

I’m a bit puzzled by this though, I thought all Porsche’s sold through OPC had warranty

“ Warranty
Vehicle has no new car or Porsche Approved warranty.”

Forgot about that, I’ve been out of warranty for about 10 years lol. I’m surprised there is no cover at all though, otherwise what’s the benefit for the buyer to purchase from a main dealer at (generally) higher price than say privately. Maybe there’s a nominal 3 months given or something

... not sure taking a picture of a single wheel with a big chunk of the finish missing is smart marketing either. The missing chunk shows a very thick paint finish too.

After studying the pics more closely, it really does look like a ‘zero prep’ car doesn’t it. Maybe a vacuum and quick wash. Straight in straight out, must be a nice margin in that for them

ETA I wonder if non-Clubsport cars have a lower number of owners on average

Shameful standard of preparation from an OPC.

They haven’t even hoovered the Porsche stripes into the carpets!

Decent roll of gorilla tape will fix that.

BTW don’t try this if you’re going to the ‘Ring. Twice I had bits of it trailing when I got back into the pits. I can only think this is the kerbs as Wipperman. Interesting experiment I suppose.

funnily i just had call from swindon opc who sold me mine asking if i might be interested in a gt4 rs as id had a sniff around one last time i was there a few months ago. but given the black one above is similar to mine without ceramics and a few more miles id be surprised if their bid was in the seventies

a few years back that black one would have been pushing 90k

Did they offer you a new gt4rs build slot or were they just trying to sell on a used gt4rs?
