Following on from the 'real value of a 996' thread - what do you folk make of the current 997 market?

Feels to me like 996's that were cheap as chips a few year back have bounced a little, as more enthusiast cars percolated back in the the system

Are 997's now in a similar trough?

this one nicely specced C2S at MPC went for £18k last month

& this tip made just £14.5k at Matthewsons lately as well.

Are they gonna to the way of 993/964's?

(i was lucky enough to buy one in 2004 for about £10k, unluckily for me, i sold it a few years later and was very smug that I got £12k back on it..... hehe)

Both early Tiptronic cars, the first one having the wrong wheels - and probably the least appealing of the later wheels. I am not looking at either of those and thinking "phwoar".

They built far, far more of them, so no, is the short and simple answer. Even taking into account engine-related attrition.
