anyone experienced 3rd gear issues on Gt4/spyder?
only seems to be coming up on cars that get tracked a fair bit.apparently afflicts cars made after 11/15 (but mostly because they have not found a car with a blown up 3rd gear before this date of production). Too bad our door jam doesn't even say actual production date unlike cars in the U.S.
Porsche so far has been replacing all broken gearboxes without question.
I'm just wondering if I'm on a ticking time bomb. Only 1 way to find out then........
Hi guys.
Looking for some feedback on this car:

Priced towards the top of the market but spec is pretty much perfect for me.
I have not yet driven a GT4 and not able to drive this one as it is on SOR. So would be a big leap of faith!

Very high spec; you'd be paying for a lot of boxes ticked but if they are requirements by you, then expect to pay quite a lot. I'd say you may be able to achieve a £95k price on it, but maybe not just yet.Looking for some feedback on this car:

Not convinced the GT3 launch will affect the GT4; the price difference will be significant for a similar spec, maybe £30k!

It's a great car but at £100k that's almost new GT3 money and around £20k over list.
Unless you have to have it now I'd wait until the GT3 is released before buying if it was me. If the 991.2 comes with a manual option (likely) it may affect GT4 pricing.
The new GT3 will prob be £105 to 110k plus options and to match that GT4 spec options would be about £18k on top of the base price. PDK GT3 maybe even more !Unless you have to have it now I'd wait until the GT3 is released before buying if it was me. If the 991.2 comes with a manual option (likely) it may affect GT4 pricing.
If you take the base price at £110k plus £18k options that's £128k plus the new £2k 1st year rip off road TAX rules it's going to cost you £130k to get into a good spec new GT3 that's even if you can get one.
A GT4 at £100k is a tad over priced imo, but the one shown is crazy spec and must have been >£85k RRP
I cannot get my head round CS pack with PCCB's mind you, one thing that looks like it should go hand in hand, but CS pack is track spec and PCCB have never liked the track, even race cars inc the CS race car do not use PCCB's.
The oem steels on the GT4 are the same as the 991 RS, the GT4 has zero issue with the steel brake set up.
And as cars without PCCBs can be had £5k cheaper I would be in the steel camp 2nd hand and be after a cheaper car.
A £85k GT4 is a nice buy imo a £100k one less so, also a £100k GT4 will lose more % come resale, atm people are getting the PCCB full amount back it cost, this will not happen later on.
When you look at good well speced £85k GT4 vs a new GT3 at £130k that looks more attractive.

some of us care because of unsprung weight benefit and having the same brakes as 918.
with PCCB, it is also the most over-braked car I know of (currently) for the weight and HP.
I do agree that on a budget, the basic clubsport car is great for predominantly trackday car.
for those that want to go on track for 2 to 3 times a year and is predominantly a street car, I do not see why the clubsport is incompatible with PCCB. ANd , if you are track serious, the standard discs are too heavy and too easily cracked anyway.

From an OPC, expect to pay £80k for poverty spec (just the base car, no ticks), £85k for some options (but possibly less desirable choices like sports seats and no leather), £90k for a well/sensibly spec'd motor (race seats, leather, pcm, phone etc), and £95k for a 'tick everything' spec (race, pccb, clubsport).
Seems to be later build cars and a bad weld on the 3rd gear cog .
But nothing is known fully as it's a bit hush hush as normal.
It would take a few guys like the GT3 boys did to rattle some Porsche cages and make a recall.
But the Engine thing dragged on for 12 months.
It's a full warranty gear box return if it goes.
But it's not a launced gearbox , 3rd gear just pops and you loose it, I guess the cog just spins round the shaft or some thing.

Hi can anyone tell me something.
Would I be class as a car flipper!!!! as I have had my car for a year.
I have another car on order which is a Porsche and waiting for another car which is a Porsche.
Providing it isn't still on delivery mileage, or very low hundreds, then I wouldn't have thought Porsche would consider it as such.Would I be class as a car flipper!!!! as I have had my car for a year.
