I know a lot of you guys are trading in GT4’s for new toys atm.

I’ve been looking for a suitable high spec GT4 (literally fully loaded) for a while, but haven’t had any success. Is anyone considering parting with theirs?

Might help if you informed us of what your fundamental requirements are. That usually starts with seat type and whether you want the roll cage or not.

Mine has a massive spec, about £18k but has been specced to be more road based than track, which suits me perfectly.

Clubsport, not comfort spec. PCCB, LWB, PCM, carbon, dual zone climate. Literally every box ticked if possible, that’s what I was getting at in my original post, hopefully a bit clearer now.

30 on AutoTrader, surely one of them ticks your boxes?

There are, but the majority are overpriced low spec cars that have been sat around for months now.

The few high spec cars on there at the moment are garage queens and I don’t want to pay the premium on a low mileage car which I’m planning on driving a lot.

Unfortunately I missed out on the perfect car a month back when I got beaten to it! A couple other nice ones have come up, but they’ve been yellow and I just hate the racing yellow paint in person.

Red clubsports with the right spec always sell well.

It has pretty much everything, but carbon sills and ceramics @ £86k.

I'm looking to sell mine.

It's not a Clubsport, but has pretty much all options ticked. Only things I dont have is the Sports Chrono pack, and I have the heated bucket seats, not the 918 ones.

It's black, with black wheels.....though I currently have a wrap on it (in the colours of the WEC 911RSR works team),

It's on 14,000miles, and had it's first service. it's a Dec 15 car, so factory warranty until end of the year.

PM if interested. I'm based in Bucks.

Thanks for the replies you two, like I posted above I’ll take any colour, but yellow.
Unfortunately sports Chrono and clubsport are a must for me.

Why is sports crono a must ?

I speced my GT4 with out, it does not do anything but make a bad reflection in the windscreen at night ? I guess it does go with the CS option as a lap timer, but I would not get hung up over it.

I think that a clubsport car should really have Chrono, due to the laptimer functionality and ‘just because clubsport’. I also don’t like the look of the dash without it.

What mileage are you looking at...?? I have a Carrara White Metallic Clubsport GT4: Carbon everywhere/918 Seats /Leather/Chrono/PDLS/PCM/Lighty-Up door sills, and a whole load of other stuff that the previous owner clearly just went a bit wild with.....!! Also has Porsche Warranty until late 2021.... No PCCBs though— unnecessary option on an already “over-braked” car imo.... Having said all that: I’m struggling to find something suitable to replace it with that provides the same value for money and “smiles-per-miles”, so I’m not 100% on selling.... Currently considering my mate’s 991.1 GT3, simply because he’s offering me it at such a good price, I can pretty much afford to “give it a go” and then just move it on if it doesn’t agree with me (the PDK is always going to be the biggest issue for me: just love the gear shift on the GT4...).
