If this is a no stories car, then it surely tells us that

a) its very hard to sell right now
b) part ex prices are crazy low right now


Someone could get a really good buy there. The same car , same year but with more miles is up for as much as 86k at certain dealers. Apart from anything else, its barely been used. Best gen2 colour as well imo.

Red has limited appeal.

I have spoken to the seller. He's selling to fund a house, sop maybe the entry / completion date is nearing.

He did have a firm offer from an OPC which turned out to be "not as good as first thought".

Not many cars at OPC's atm though. 1 RS, and 10 non-RS's. I think with all the hype etc of the 991, prices may stay strong 'this' Winter?
The one I bought last year had been discounted by a total of £15k from it's original asking price before I moved on it. It was too high initially and they were too late in cutting it (initially by 10k, then they took an extra 5 out). Might it be possible that this may be a reason why OPCs don't want to stock GT3s into winter... As they have to sell cheap or sit on them in stock until spring... whistle

I have a 997 GT3 gen 2 , bought it new for approx £92K in December 2012 .

I find these threads amusing . Its a car , they depreciate .

They sell for what the market dictates is the going rate , or how desperate the seller is to move it .

I dont expect mine to be worth £80K nor would i expect to have to sell for £60K . What i do know is the price has held up far better than my previous 997 gen 1 s

What i also know is its going to be hard to replace if and when i do decide to move on , its a fantastic car .The 991 has no appeal at the moment , too sterile .Maybe the 997 GT3 will be seen to be the peak of 911 development before engines became like white goods .
