With all the talk of the hit the 991 is going to take, this 997 turbo s caught my eye. I know the colour might be an issue and the body kit is not for everyone, but £85k at less than a year old is a pretty good deal.

Not really going to be helping residuals that car. I know that OPC look around to see if their prices are competitive and won't immediately adjust the prices of their equivalent cars but may do so if they have an interested buyer. Wonder how long before they are routinely £75k?

These will fall further - at £85k, makes a new GT3 look cheap?

Good point. GT3 is hard to come by though.

The Turbo S was a Porsche GB car by the looks of it

Yes but the Turbo S will do everything the GTR does for double the price.
