It's all gone quiet on the news and spy pics side. Guess its not going to be a Geneva reveal then!?

Few of us on here are of the opinion it will be later this year; with physical cars appearing 2019.

Another year to wait

Nattering with the local OPC earlier and they said the rumour was Geneva, but I suspect they know about as much as some of you lot!

Get out and buy a 2016, drive it for a year - tell your dealer you'll sell it back to them below market value and then they'll give you a 718 GT4 when they launch... thats how it works isn't it?

Seriously - if you want a GT4 nothing better than the current one.... plenty available for nice money - enjoy it and enjoy your life.

I've had one already. I did around 4.5k miles in it. I sold it a because i thought i'd get a .2 GT3 allocation.

Cracking car though. Love to get another one day.

Looks like i'll have to find a reasonably priced .2GT3 instead.

A tad off topic but the GT3RS is on site for specing. Is that another flippers car that’s impossible to get an allocation for?

Not too sure on the GT3RS. Give a couple OPC's a call and see what they say, you never know you luck.

Think you will struggle on the GT3 RS if not secured one yet.

[BE57JAM]

Cheers Gents. Any idea if these hold their value? I’ve not got a lot of history at that level so could do with any input before I talk to the salesman.

Well the first 991.1 GT3 RS were flipped for just under £300k.

Gen 2 likely to be a touch more.

That's why they are hard to get unless you have a serious buying history with your average OPC.

Haha Twinfan! You know I love a good wind up!

Honestly though, I specced one last night for fun and got a call back this morning from the OPC. I sent the build to a different OPC than the one I’m getting my GTS through ( Because I think they’re probably sick of me too) and got a call back this morning. Slightly irritatingly I missed the call but this makes me think they have allocations?

Anyway. Didn’t want to chat to the bloke and find out this is the one model everyone thinks is ste. Depreciation and resale definitely matter on that kind of coin

Update: the call back I missed was a courtesy call to remind me I’m a peasant and have no chance of getting near one.

LOL— Almost got a tad excited then....!! Was just working out which OPCs to “give a go”, and then saw your update.....!! Having “only” bought a used GT4 and a 987 Spyder (both from different OPCs), I think I’ll save the mobile phone charges....!!
