I've been watching these & I think they've gone down gradually and there's a lot of stock that hasn't moved, which may be a reflection on those vehicles. There's a Red modified vehicle that's now at 42k, a few standard ones in the same ball park.

There's still a huge gap to 7GT2's as well.

As to the future, it's a gamble to buy a volume production vehicle IMHO as any kind of investment, especially if you want to use it for the purspose intended.

Think you can be patient a few years, could be another 6 - 8k dropping off... Your challenge will be to find a good one, they tend to be either run out/down or really good.

PM me I may be selling mine.

I agree and have been watching for some years. Prices have drifted down and seem to range from late £30k's up to high £40k. Previously (couple of year ago) there were many in the £50k's and none in the high £30k's. Now most seem to be priced mid to low £40k's. Comfort models more widely available and M003 clubsport versions much rarer but dont seem to command much of a premium when they do pop up. Good luck with your search - get an independent inspection done too.

thinking for the future.............dangerous I know...........especially thinking

I may be completely wrong but I cannot see these cars significantly increasing in value in the years to come. The 997 GT2 will soon find its way in the second hand market (there are already quite a few) and as result the price for the 996 GT2 will be depressed.

hello frank how are you? so you sell you 6tt to buy an escos and within weeks are talking about a new 911? cant let it go fella?

what are you like mate

Out of interest is this just a finger in the air opinion or informed by real world insight from the trade/ownership/classic car auction and valuations?

Here's my thoughts as an owner who went through the purchasing process of one of these great cars earlier this year, I ended up buying the Castello car, and someone who thought a GT2 would always remain out of my reach financially so please don't flame me just my opinion.

Depreciation for most of us is a good thing as it gets us into the cars of our dreams, but we have to jump on board at some point when we make a purchase of that "dream car" and therefore want to damage control the depreciation if we can, so I totally get that. Always difficult to have your cake and eat it, so the thing that makes the car purchase possible in the first place sometimes can end up being your worst enemy ;-) if it continues to erode at the purchase price.

996 GT2 and 997 GT2 are very different cars, like wise a 993 GT2 and 996 GT2 are different. They are limited in numbers, that we all agree on so that helps with residuals, the thing that drives the market value on cars like these is demand and the cause for demand. Think back to the 993 RS and 964 RS models they were available for sub £30k many years ago and for some time also when they were unloved models, then over a period of time they are discovered as "drivers cars" featuring an analogue driving experience with no driver aids etc etc, we have all read about them and also watched the prices rise steadily.

The 996 GT2 has some of these "magic" ingredients so only time will tell, but in the meantime I get to drive and look at an amazing car that I grow to appreciate every time I drive it, if it goes up in value that is a bonus, if it goes down in value then so be it but it doesn't distract from what a great car it is and the enjoyment that I get from owning and driving one.

Hope this helps any GT2 lurkers in the purchase process.
