What value on these in 3-4 years. I.e. 6 to 7 years old.
Just a little 'best estimate' of opinions.

I think the mad pricing of the rare 911 models won't continue and these will reduce somewhat.

I think they will be a little less than today, maybe 10%? Which is very strong.

I'd say it's dependant on if the new R is a 4 pot and PDK only.

4 pot seems likely from what I've read so should help residuals.

Prices may also become more sensitive to spec; manual, carbon buckets, chrono etc

Imho more than an equivalent S and less than any straight gt3. I think for as long as Spyders and Rs are standout models in the historic and current range they will hold value. What will change is the spread of values as mileage and wear and tear take their toll. Ie the cheapest will get cheaper. Immaculate low mileage cars should hold value. Whether they rise depends on what a 'new' R is like and whether gt3s continue upwards - as I say, imho.

Someone will be long to say that the Manual CR will be worth twice a PDK car. wink

it will be though :-)

the R is a hard one, it's the best car I have owned from 50 cars, it's just right for a fast road 2 seater coupe sports car.

I have my name down on the new R/GT4 what ever, but we will see.

if the R is the last of real feel and non turbo cars then it will go up in price no question, but like the 964RS it might take some time for people to see how great it was.

I wish I could keep mine but I fancy a super car and keeping the spyder over my R, but I will miss my R greatly, it's awesome.
it's NOT for sale though so not a advert for a sale just yet lol

Looks very clean and that front bumper looks un-chipped!
Have you put some paint protection film on it?

it does have a few chips as it happens, just they don't show up on photo's.

that's just a wash and dry, no products used ;-) prepped and waxed with Zymol concours back early spring. Always comes up nice.
