He is right to some extent. Certainly lots of uncertainty out there with regards to 'trophy' cars as people are getting a little wobbly with house price growth slowing & signs of others feeling the pinch.
I'm looking at the GT3 market with a view to possibly buying but want to see how things materialise over the next few months & see how the market is then.
Since I've been on the hunt, the same cars sit in the classifieds with no price drop and the number of cars available increase.
One particularly nice example which has taken my fancy is on SOR (I managed to prize that info out of the dealer eventually) but the price remains the same 3 months on...My sensible head says stick with my 997 c2s as I shouldn't loose my shirt on it but a GT3 if I pulled the trigger now.......?
I'm not buying as an investment but I don't want to see the car potentially drop £20k in 12 months. That's the value of my c2s!

I think buying now and hoping to lose only £20k is more than optimistic. Twice that is more realistic.

Some of the prices out there are fanciful, ridiculous.

One owner who seems to be realistic.

Sorry, I should have said I was looking for a 997 GT3. I think there will be a correction of circa £10k-£20k in the short to medium term. Such cars are currently priced where they were when new.

Bring it on I say, us enthusiasts can fill our boots and pay proper money rather than 'investor' prices and can go and enjoy the cars, put miles on them and get them dirty..

The whole GT3 second hand sales at OPCs stinks (approx) 90% of cars that they have for sale are on SOR that's why they are sitting there at over inflated prices because its not there money that is tied up in these cars. They can be sitting for sale at the OPCs in a years time & it has no great effect on them as it is a complete false market led by greed for sharing profit between customer & seller.
Most of these cars for sale are bought & sold to customers who have no interest in cars whatsoever only for the financial gain which kills the opportunity for the true enthusiast who wants to own & drive these cars.

It was the enthusiast that made Porsche what they are today but now those same customers are turned away by refusing to sell them new GT3s models unless your supposedly spending big amounts of money buying lots of standard Porsche models as well.

Until BUYERS WAKE UP & STOP paying inflated prices as the market is flooded with cars for sale this behaviour will continue. The buyers have created their own problem if they did't buy they would have to drop the prices it's that simple.

You’ll lose £20k the moment you drive it out the door imo.. Dealer spreads are 15-20 min at the mo.

On a 997 maybe not.
Having said that, losing 20k on a car of this value does not seem like much/I would certainly price that (or actually a lot more over say 3 years) into ownership cost

People seem to forget that before this bubble we are in came about (circa 2012/2013) 997.1 GT3 were circa 55k and 997.2 GT3 were circa 75k.
With the threat of no manual or non motorsport GT3 in 991.1 the prices shot up.
Now we have manual options (which only the minority choose) and we have an amazing motorsport derived engine in the 991.2, I can’t see a reason why the prices are higher now in 2018 than in 2012.

In fact we now have more GT3’s available to choose from......logic says prices should be lower.

Some cars have been on and off the market for well over a year and in the last few weeks there are the first signs of the market turning downwards regards to prices.....finally good news for the true enthusiast who wants to use these cars as intended.

I think the reason why so many are priced so highly is that people have got in late as an investment and brought high, seeing the market slow and now start to retrace, getting out before they lose money.

I have been close to just thinking sod it you only live once and buying. I have had to work and save hard to be in this position. I see BIG price drops already happening and we are still way above where I think the prices should be.

I think i’ll Hold out for bigger drops

I have wanted a 996.1 GT3 for 20 years, I think the time to buy one is mid next year when the proverbial has well and truly hit the fan and the entire economy is resembling Venezuela.

Cars are still selling, I collated my Cayenne back this week from an OPC, they had 3 GT3s in the show room. Not on the Porsche Website, all nice spec cars. 2 had sold stickers on.

Probably around Christmas, yes. That said it’s rhe current bunch who are intent on dropping us out of the G7, and it’s their actions that will lead to us being able to buy cheap GT3’s.
