Anyone interested in that car should watch his somewhat entertaining track day 'off'......

Having watched the video of this car being resprayed, I would also be interested in how easily, and cleanly, the peelable PPF can be removed.

Was it sprayed as well?

[av185]

Wonder how the stone damaged mags were 'repaired'.

A couple of PTS RS’s from PEC yesterday. They had also just taken delivery of their new 4RS for the fleet, Yellow and Black.

Sorry to derail the thread slightly but I've been looking at booking a PEC experience as a treat sometime this year and really fancy a 4RS or Sypder RS but they're not on the website currently - when you say fleet I assume they'll be making it available for experience use? I'll give them a call if that's the impression you got.

I’m driving the 4RS a week on Saturday, so there is definitely one there! Question maybe is whether it’s open to anyone to book or they are restricting it to prospective owners with confirmed build slots for the time being?

Before Mr JWW took delivery of the car, he decided he didn’t like the colour. It was therefore taken to @logicvpc to be resprayed in viola with what they describe as peelable paint, i.e. in theory it peels off returning the car to the original colour.

They have an RS available for use. Phone them and request it.

How did you find the 4RS and Was it the new one you drove? I’m heading there to drive the 4RS in 2 weeks time myself also!

Sadly, wasn’t there to drive the 4RS, was there driving 992T. Instructor and I moved to the little used ‘figure of 8 track’ to work out if the T had RWS fitted. Took a little detour to see the 100+ cars on the PEC fleet, instructor commented the Yellow 4RS was brand new to the fleet. Didn’t get to see it in action but it was brought out for someone to drive in the afternoon.

Best looking car on the fleet? They have a GT3RS in PTS Golden Yellow metallic (a la Turbo Exclusive) with Aurum wheels. Sounds gross, looked frickin’ amazing.

This looks like list price, from the ‘overs’ specialists…

Well priced for the spec

lets see how quick it moves...

Less than six days. It has already sold. I enquired on Monday ("still available") and today ("sorry, already sold")

[TDT]

They are on the move. Even the non-wp car from Mid-sussed which had been on for nearly a year as shifted this week, sub 140k.

[av185]

Yep unexpectedly April and particularly May have seen record numbers of OPC used 4RS being sold with around seven sold this month to date as prices have been gradually reduced. Currently 18 in the OPC network down from an average of 23 cars.

Looks like anything sub c500 miles and sub 12 months old is currently retailing at between £5k and £10k over list with anything older and higher mileage below list ££.

Stand out value cars of late imo include the newest March 2024 100 mile yellow Preston car with ceramics which sold this month in just a few weeks at c£160k £10k over list. Interesting the mint (seen and driven it) condition Sept 23 73 plate 900 mile yellow ceramic braked York car also sold at around £160k £10k over list after having been reduced from a rather heady £195k last Autumn.

Laggards still for sale since last Autumn include the grossly overpriced black Hull car with mags and BMs red 3.8k miles car (Pendragon Wilmslow ex Stockport) the latter of which started at £180k last year and is now offered at £148k and remarkably still £8k over list. Am sure it will give BM continued amusement lol.

Be interesting seeing if Porsche implement a new model price rise in the short term which could help support the used prices.

[TDT]

I understand that there will be a price rise for the new Model Year.

[MannyLon]

When looking at “list” low mileage cars, worth considering many have ppf and tax has been paid..

[jzma]

So for the million dollar question.
Will a used 4RS from an OPC go below its respective list price on the configurator?

[ChrisW.]

Yes ...

Bloody right it does

Bit of a shame really as it’s a nice car in good nick. Probably seized up by now!

Well it certainly went well enough when I drove it last year! A few marks on the bonnet consistent with the mileage but otherwise mint and you specced it nicely too.

Seems strange why it hasn't sold recently there appears to have only been 1 other OPC Guards 4 RS....at Edinburgh which sold in December. Imo Guards along with Shark is one of the best colours for the 4RS....rarest colours too.

Reckon they have made the classic mistake of chasing the market down with their delayed price reductions.

[MeisterH]

After a long wait my PTS 4RS has arrived and ill collect in a week or so

As a few other have said, there is a few Allocations around and that will be it NO more, once they stop production, so grab them whilst you can i say

The Edinburgh car was a cheap car at the time ... at list. If I could have paid before Christmas I would have bought it ... instead I bought a 5/18 991.2 GT3RS at the same price, one owner and 7500 miles with 30 months OPC warranty ... pre-particulate filter, steel brakes, new tyres and freshly serviced ... on the last trading day of last year and collected mid Jan '24.

I think this is possibly a sticking point now, I've been sniffing around various GT4RS's over the last 3-6 months, but with the crazy overs I started to look at what else is available and as you say you could have a 991.2 GT3RS for similar cash now.
