This caught my eye when I was picking my old 911 up from servicing yesterday. Always been tempted, but lacks back seats that are a supposed 'must have' of the missus

Nice spec if slightly bizarre having ceramics on a clubsport GT4.http://locator.porsche.com/ipl-customer/ipl/detail...
But high mileage for a GT4.
Ceramics are a bargain over steels if you want them though on a GT4 as they are worth little more retail than steel braked cars.

13K is high mileage for the price, or high mileage for a GT4.... if the latter, then no wonder, people are hacked off.But high mileage for a GT4.

They are made for driving.... ridiculous.

+1 Ridiculous to think that 13K is high mileage. Maybe high mileage against the other 30 or the so that might be for sale at the moment but I'll wager that there are plenty of the other 570 that will have done 13K or more by owners that realize that they're at the best when driven rather than hiding in a garage.They are made for driving.... ridiculous.
I've done 16k on mine. I've probably bankrupted myself. Oh well. They were good miles. From mountain passes to driving to work to hand in my resignation and >100 laps of the ring all good memories. Oh look at that. It's been tracked. Heavily. I should probably just take it to the scrapyard as nobody will buy it now.
JESUS. What is with the car industry in this country?!?! My friends in Germany have done 30k km in their GT cars and don't flinch at the thought of adding more. Why the hell would anyone buy one of these cars and not drive it? I only drive mine once or twice a week and I've managed 10k in just over a year. What are people doing to add only 1000 miles a year? Thats a trip to the dealer and back for a service and maybe a few drives. What is the point?
They don't break. I keep mine on the street. It isn't rusty. My neighbours like looking at it. I like looking at it. If I put it in the garage, I can't be bothered to go get it and drive it when I have the opportunity!

The price of Porsche GTs like any other car at this price point is adversely affected by mileage.
Like any car. A 3 year old e.g. £7k Astra with say 20k miles is worth c£500 more than the same car with 30k miles. Take it to the other extreme and for cars at say £250k the difference in mileage will have a huge impact on value. And rightly so.
Who would choose a higher mileage car over a lower mileage one all other things being the same? Unless the higher mileage one is proportionately cheaper.

I know... its a good buy at that... The 10k miles much just be putting people off and the fact that they will all be dropping a little more going into winter and with the new car due.
26 for sale on the locator now.
I avoid nackered leather seats, maybe others feel the same way.26 for sale on the locator now.
just a personal pet hate people sitting on the side bolsters bending the crap out of them.
I always think if they cannot be arsed to look after their own cars it's prob been bouncing off the limited from cold also.
Mates just bought a 06 Porker seats look newer than those.
I find most of the flipped GT cars seem to have bent leather seats and the private sale one owner cars have perfect seats !

Just because someone has leather seats which have creases on them doesn’t mean it’s been abused from cold! Maybe it just means it’s been driven and enjoyed like it’s designed.

not really, why make personally comments ? I just don't like cars with creased side bolsters, I would not even go and see it.Oh and.....

As I said my mate picks up a very nice 06 car and the seats look like new I guess that's why that one has sold.
