Nine 7GT3's for sale on PH under £60K...
Discussion
.. maybe this current financial climate isn't such a bad thing - keep them coming down please...
even the ex-Chris Harris/evo one has just dropped £2K and that's with 2 year OPC warranty

.. interesting to note that the pics are from when they sold it this time last year, so they are of a 1 year, 5,000 mile younger car than the one they are selling. Tut tut.

Still not bad though, is it..? Any 4 or 5 year old car that is still worth 70% to 75% of its new cost (if not more) has got to be good…
My 4 year old Laguna is worth circa 30% and I guess a Carrera would be about 50%?So comparitively, 70% must be class leading! Like most though, I expected them to hold even better.
The 997GT3 is pretty much my 'attainable' dream car and they cant come down fast enough!!!!
MTR

technically its not "worth" that either as as soon has you've bought it you've lost a chunk in OPC premium! though i agree with you its pretty decent, though i want them to contine to fall so i can afford one That's the point, isn't it.. Just about all cars depreciate in value.. and these times are having an impact... Times are tough out there.. The markets dumped again this week.. The £ is struggling.. Insurance costs are up.. fuel costs are up.. service costs are up..
But...
Yes, whilst GT3's ain;t doing quite as well as they used to, I bet compared to others they are still holding their position..
That car (the one in the link in the opening post on the thread) would have been, what, £85/87k on delivery.. So, even if you assumed it was now "worth" £52k in a private sale, that's still over 60% for something 4 and a quarter years old.. and I'd hazard a guess that you'd still get something like that in 6 months time, as the weather starts getting better and the GT3 "buyers" migrate in from wherever they fly off to in winter.. and the car is closer to 5 years old..
You know, when you think about that, they are still doing remarkably well, considering... and those folks who own the cars who are worried out £££.. well, if they all decided to hold on to them.. prices would rise....!!
I sold on my Cayman S the other year for 43% of its new price (all in).. It was 4 and a half years old.. 50K miles (Bit high).. Nice spec (IMHO, of course).. I didn't think I'd done especially well.. probably a fair price to both parties, though.. But I bet I couldn't do that sort of deal on that car now..???
A 4.5 year old GT3 at 60%, even now, is pretty darn good...
