Curious of course to see how the market pans out (my needs are modest - CR, Boxster Spyder or maybe a Cayman GT) but if the 996GT3 & the RS market keeps steaming ahead, I suppose safe to trade upwards as the tide rises for all things Porsche.

Guys and gals - what's your verdict on the newsletters assessment of the market?

I think that is the essence of the car and why it polarises so many drivers. The original versions of the GT3 - 996/7 were very race orientated car as opposed to race inspired. By thier nature, highly strung, relatively twitchy and unforgiving. To some drivers very rewarding and others just uncomfortable, frustrating and intimidating. I fit into the former catagory and recognise that when combining the unique nature of the driving experience and the hardware that these cars share, make them still a relative bargain ( compared to a decent cooking 964C2for example ). I can see how other drivers wouldnt see it that way

That's a good post. Porsche have served up so many & varied dishes over the years. Inevitable there is some hot air in the system.
