The one thing we can say is that it will be harder and harder to buy cars like this ... but surely they must fall in value at some point ??

Yes, the GT cars are a cult within the cult that is Porsche. They have a massive following as proven by strong values across all iterations. Increased usability with the 991 generation has only served to strengthen demand yet further. And if, as appears to be the case, the 992 returns to be even more hardcore I don't see demand waning until legislation literally drives us off the road.

Certainly the 991.2 PDK can very easily be used as a daily ... and as a track car on high days and holidays !

But we know that good spec can add 25% to the price ... so a bare price means little ...

Looking for a 996 or 997 GT3 currently and there does seem to be fewer around than a month or so ago.

Its a minefield to buy, crash damage, Rev ranges plus general wear and tear on a 20+ year old car!
Still have my white Gt3 after 9 years. I guess I must like it .
You saw it when I came to your house.

Hope all is well. Have had nearly 6 years in Mclarens now and fancy something manual.

I nearly bought a 997 GT3 last week but it wasn't the right car. I think Im too fussy with colours. Would also consider a nice 996 GT3.

Red would be first choice. Yellow or Black would also be nice. Would consider white also if a nice car.

Seeing a black car later this week, fingers crossed!

Would look at both.

Yes done the Mclaren thing, after 36k miles across 2 cars that have been brilliant my driving requirements have changed. I want something that is raw and cheaper on consumables for track days. Have Anglesey booked so trying to find something suitable.

We should start to see more GT3 coming to marker at people trade into the new one.

The market is crazy now- best example of that is the Manual crayon GT3 with RPM. Someone bought it in early March for £135k. Did a road trip, stuck a few thousand miles on it (+ 1 owner on log book)- its now listed back with RPM 6 weeks later for £140k! Would take a mug to buy it i think.

And the two 991.2 GT3’s at OPC’s are both Comfort Spec PDK’s at £145k. Not even the most ardent Porsche/GT3 fanboy saw this coming.

World has gone mad !

Yep both steel braked cars too one is 2017 reg with marmite Miami internal trim in fact the other GTS comfort has just been increased £2k to £146500 which reflects the obvious huge demand for and short supply of these cars even with these specs.

The comfort spec cars have done much better than with gen 1 because relatively few were bought .
When there were 20+ Cars for sale there was only ever 1 or 2 comfort specs in there.

Rs cars haven’t been moving for a long while ,I think we were discussing this around last November time ,many of the cars for sale then are still for sale now ,
