How many on here who bought at list would also buy the car at £105k? Not many I suspect.
Will Porsche price the GT4.2 at near £100k? I don't think so - it is a strange market we are in.
If Porsche released just 100 more GT4's ......
they did release a so called another 150 cars !How many on here who bought at list would also buy the car at £105k? Not many I suspect.

but yes I would NOT buy at £105k and I would not Buy the GT4 new at £75k if it were going to drop 40% over 3 years either, I would buy a 2 year old one.
I never buy new cars, it's a mugs game, the GT4 allowed me to own a new car with no loss.

This is doubtful......remember this is a car which toppled the mighty RS in Ecoty......and there are many more buyers with c £105k to spend than c £150k on the GT3. Never ceases to amaze me how many spec a 'cooking' non GT Carrera to over £100k with needless options.Porsche911R said:

I wonder are the Ferrari and Lambourgini forums as argumentative and value driven as ours? I'm very sure we all love cars for the driving pleasure and we all appreciate not all will have the same view on what makes the car special but it would be great if we could just let people buy and sell what they want at what ever price they feel makes sense and concentrate on the driving thrills we all get from our cars! Would love if someone was planning a long road trip if they documented it on here so we could all hear their impressions of the GT4 over a long distance on some interesting roads!

Interesting that the JZM car is now sub £K 100 - club sport , but no leather - I can't see the majority of these cars being > £K 100 very soon.
However , as others had said - sun has been out today - surely someone can chat about the driving instead - I took the opportunity to go out in this today , great fun : small , agile , manual , sounds amazing , with lovely power delivery though out the rev range - just keeps delivering - not a GT4 obviously , but similar in some respects

I see someone's put a deposit down on the £115995 black car at 911 sport!
Still only about 11 cars for sale. Will be interesting to see what happens after 1st March.
JZM car is down to 99k but no leather. This does seem to make a difference to resale.
What are you expecting post March 1st - increase in supply / reduction in prices or increase in prices as season commences or the two things offsetting each other ?Still only about 11 cars for sale. Will be interesting to see what happens after 1st March.

Oh heck , accidentally posted another gratuitous shot - sorry !
what would you rather have a 991.1s or a gt4 at same price point?
personally I would not have paid over £80k for a gt4 or any car as a matter of fact as way to expensive for my taste but i was lucky to secure at list but i can fully understand why someone would pay £100k as said above nothing else at that price point.
personally i think the gt4 is should have been more £80k base ie midway between 991.1 and 991.1gts.
Imo i think the gt4 second hand prices will always be better than a 991.1s maybe on par with a 991.1gts or slightly better but then who really knows but in the meantime i am enjoying a great value car but then gt cars have always been a good package and great value

Update on this topic 26 GT4's have now been listed on Pistonheads (some more than once through multiple dealers) and 11 appear to have been sold. Club sport with Full Carbon Buckets seem to have sold quickest for highest prices.

Currently 12 GT4's for sale on Piston Heads with 4 being added today!
To date only one looks to have sold via JZM, the other seem to be hanging around. Is this a sign that people aren't willing to pay the over inflated prices on these cars or people are just biding their time to see where the market goes when all of the cars have been delivered?
Also this has to be an eye opener to Porsche that a good number of the early cars that have been delivered to their favored customers are straight to re-sale? I'm surprised the 20-30k increase in price on these cars is enough to make people sell these cars especially given how rare they are and how good they seem to be!

Gratuitous pics welcome! Yes I was just wondering what might happen as my local dealer has about 2 or 3 in waiting to go out on 1st March. Some have been sitting there since end Dec. I guess we'll see a couple more for sale but not expecting prices to fall. Well spec'd cars will command good prices. Those that are less well spec'd will languish a while. Same old situation. I have a bit of a desire for a 997.2 gt3 CS at some point so I'll see what the 4 is like and may look at one later this year. The 4 might be that good though that I don't want to chop it in. Time will tell. Oh heck , accidentally posted another gratuitous shot - sorry !
Does anyone own both / driven both to offer a comparison? I expect the 7.2 is a much more hardcore experience that the gt4?
