Yet another "What's it worth" question

[robbom3]

Hi all,

I'm thinking that it might be time to sell the TT and move on (probably to a 997 carrera S)

So, can I get some opinions on what I can expect to get for mine, either as a private sale, or as a trade in.

996TT X50, 2003 (52), 43000 miles.
Slate Grey
FPSH
All usual bits, PCM2, Bose, CD changer, Sunroof, Tracker.

£49k

Does "whats it worth?" actually mean "For sale"

[Wanta996(Gotta)]

Agree with Hoges - Henry has a 2002 X50 with PCM2 for £50k. I also reckon £48-£50k privately. Used 997S's seem to be selling for £49-£55k at the moment.

[baz1985]

About £48k imo.

[robbom3]

Thanks for the feedback everyone.

Hi GT3, Yes, if the right offewr comes along, then I'd be interested in selling.

[30121980]

£47-48,500 IMMHO

Would be interesting to see what a dealer/opc offer you on a trade in.

nice spec though, will make some one a happy git

Sorry to hijack but..
What would it be worth without satnav, plus sports exhaust and slightly higher mileage in black?

997 better chassis - but 3.8S(very buzzy) You will miss the torque of the X50...alot.

In reality (I think) you already have the better car - best get a 24hr demo from your local dealer on the S

An early 997S similar mileage is worth 45k trade - So do not get drawn into parting with too much.

Gari:- your x50 around £45-£46 k private.............IMHO of course. Still a hell of a car for the money...miles is nowt, they`ll run forever

any dealer/trader offerd on it yet???? - i bet that`ll give you a shock ....£42-44 k perhaps

For what it's worth, I think you'll be very disappointed moving from a 996 TT to a 997 C2S... I'd sit tight unless you're going to go for a 997 TT.

[30121980]

997 C2S is a great car to have, drive and live with...what a machine. Was the proud owner of a guards red 997 c2s before I wanted a bit more bhp and jumped into a 996 tt with x50 upgrade.

Theres some class 997 c2s around now for good money, most of them would have been well over £70,000.

Why not try and find one with power kit/sports exhaust.........handle like a dream and great fun.

all the best

On the subject of dealer offers, Porsche Guildford said £42K !!!!! Needless to say I was a bit unimpressed with this, especially as thay'd no doubt resell it for £50K+.

Hopefully, from the comments here £48 to £49K is reasonably realistic.

Interesting comments about the TT being a better car than the C2S. I must admit that I love the big power of the TT, but rarely get to use it in anger. My thought process has been that it must be a 911, would like a slightly newer one, can't justify a 997TT (Yet), so perhaps the C2S is a good way forward.

[V6 inside]

I drove both before i decided on the 996TT, yes the 997 does look the nuts and definatley gives you the buzz of owning a newish car, but when your behind the wheel of the X50 its a total different sensation.
The knowledge that anything short of a murci will not stand a chance coupled with that endless power is amazingly addictive experience.

Dont do it! if you are serious have a good extended testdrive before you make your decision.

Good luck

steven,
thanks mate, TBH i'd be happy with anything near 47k for my beast. lets see what happens. I'm not going to trade it, i'll just wait until i get what i'm after.

cheers

gari:- £46,000 on yours mate. worth that all day long.

Pictures would be good.
