That should help to hold 991 GT3 values for sure, making it look too cheap!

Well for all those who are currently waiting for their 991 I'm not sure that they see it as such.

I'm sure that car changed hands at JZM a few weeks ago for £103k. Thought it was cheap car.

If you want a newish GT3 to use in summer 2014 you best get your wallet out.

Not much to choose from and no new GT3 till Oct.

Some one will buy it.

Its called supply and demand ..and more importantly a Zombie economy supported by cheap money and Qe etc..once rates go up(if they ever do)..picture will look very different.What else can you do with spare cash?

I know of one that recently went for not much less than that, deposit was down before they'd even seen the car. Seems a lot of them are being snapped up this way.

ok, 3 months ago it would have been 105k, there's nothing else on the market with a warranty so now it's 20k more than 'us experts' would call the market. frankly to some people 20k is half the price of a decent holiday - not a biggie. of course i wouldn't pay £125k for a 3.8 RS, but that doesn't mean there isn't someone a lot more liquid and thirsty in the market for one. Perhaps they'll be 85k again in 12 months time, who knows. frankly who cares. in fact why am i even writing this...

I guess this is just pure good old supply and demand.

Demand is strong, I think we all know that, but how many cars are there for sale? A couple?

Result? Sellers can dictate the market. Who wouldn't?

I've only just bought mine - but have had three 'serious' requests to buy once I'm ready to sell - not easy cars to find if you're buying as I well know! I'd like to think mine's a keeper - which I think is the case with many owners now.

Agree with all of the above i do not see these getting cheaper now. The bar has been raised. Lovely car though.

For useability, the 7.2 GT3 looks far better value
