Guys , what is wrong with Colchester car ?
Horrific interior.

Red striped wheels unpopular.

8k miles relatively high.

not really, take it or leave it.
Think you are correct. Some anecdotal evidence goes to support your idea. Maybe even launched at the Geneva show early March with winged car launched at Frankfurt next September.

The red striped wheels really look dated for sure. Mind you, could always refurb them a different colour fairly cheaply - unlike the interior!

Just FYI.

I believe the 992 GT3 is already effectively ready for release.

Its even featured as a teaser in the recent Superbowl advert.

Like the 992 Turbo S and GTS the only thing holding back Porsche from releasing new models is a change in policy relating to new car reveals.

There has been change in the wind recently on the channels Porsche and other manufacturers are using for new car releases. Auto shows have been on the decline for the last few years (Geneva aside). Porsche Marketing has recently reinvented its launch programmes to make them more relevant to todays audiences.

Expect to see some fairly non tradition release venues and dates this year as a result.

Easy, some has spilt red paint all over the interior and it has the wrong gearbox.!

Well, it is Monday.

Geneva 718 GTS
Goodwood Touring
Paris or one of the Amercian Nov motor shows GT3 to get a late 2020 release date.

Not exactly non-traditional are they?

The GT2RS at the computer games Expo is the kind of thing I'm expecting based on the comment above.

Presume you mean the Goodwood Revival for the Touring launch.. not the Goodwood FOS or Members Meeting?

I expect Porsche to launch at least two of the models waiting in the wings via internet and my guess is we will see at least 2 releases this year launched in a way we havent previously seen (shows, Goodwood etc).

Bit off Topic but is anyone doing Silverstone 18th March with RMA ?
I`d like to do Silverstone and haven't done many track days and the ones I did do were a good few years ago so needing a helping hand or I`ll end up bottling it lol..
Don't bottle it, I also haven't done many and none at all since 2006! I'm dipping my toe in this year, doing Anglesey and Silverstone so far with PCGB

Thanks. Yes. I meant not a show or Goodwood! The 992 TT & GTS is ready to go next and we will see these over the next few weeks then the GT3...

The red Sheffield Opc car seems reasonably priced at £126k with decent spec, I guess the mileage at 15k is moon mileage for this type of car though.
On reflection it probably needs to be nearer £120k with that mileage, most likely one of if not the highest mileage gen 2 cars for sale.

I would be shocked not to see the Turbo at Geneva.

mileage is not the issue, people are way way to hung up on miles.

Most GT4 are over 10k miles also now, people are using their cars, what happens is Mileage reflects price.
you can buy a 991.1 RS with some miles on for £127k

you can buy a 996 RS with 70k miles on for less than a car with £20k miles.

that's how you price cars :-) nothing wrong with miles on a car as long as it's cheaper which is the case.
