Good looking car..! It's being sold by a Porsche Dealer so I'm sure you could negotiate it into the deal (if it can be retro fitted). But it's now showing "on hold".

I think the GT market is way over heated and expect there be some guys taking significant losses particularly on the .1s after the next 12 months. I have been watching the turbo market too, they have soften a little bit more than the GT market, but still a good $50k over pre pandemic pricing. I daily drove My GT3 (non-RS) but the market is very sensitive to kms on GT cars, so be prepared for that. Very livable though. edgy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are looking for a 991.1RS I have a friend that is waiting on a 992RS allocation that I could connect you with. Its a highly specced GT Silver car with PCCB Sharkworks bypass and other.

NBTBRV8 Posted 10October, 2022 Report Share Posted 10October, 2022 I saw the yellow .2 RS of Hobart's tonight being driven in the rain on the way home. They aren't scared of putting kms on it, hence why it wasn't there when I peered through the window yesterday. It looked good in a sea of mundane grey, silver and white cars.

NBTBRV8 Posted 10October, 2022 Report Share Posted 10October, 2022 Nice spec .1, but for the money I'd rather buy a .2 with a few kms on it. https://www.carsales.com.au/cars/details/2016-porsche-911-gt3-rs-991-auto-my16/OAG-AD-21155906 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The number of 911s for sale has been increasing each week for at least the last 5 months. 375 Listed currently which is a high point for the last two years. I'm guessing with credit becoming an issue for some buyers, various models are going to moderate in price. If I had to pick a GT3 or RS that could undergo a sudden 30%+ haircut, it'd be the 991.1 - out of all of them its the one with the obvious reason to tank. I'd think given the delta is fairly close together, a 991.2 makes a lot more sense financially, if not for other reasons. hugh and wilson59 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NBTBRV8 Posted 24October, 2022 Report Share Posted 24October, 2022 A big spec but base seats is a bit weird. Also I see the wheels have been painted silver (which IMHO look better than black). I will say that I am watching the 991 turbo market and prices whilst still elevated are starting to see sellers dropping them, this hasn't happened for a while so it is softening. I guess the GT market will take a while to swing back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

E.g. stupidly paying $600 K for a new GT3 that is a new $450,000 car. Let’s assume it then corrects as a scenario, one could be exiting at under $300,000 on a $600,000 buy in a short space of time….ouch…$300k gone… Joz 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very few are getting delivered (in total) and apart from some flippers - a lot are additional cars to a collection.... Gt3 and RS too.

NBTBRV8 Posted 25October, 2022 Report Share Posted 25October, 2022 It is noteworthy that there appears to be more 992 GT3s for sale than 991s, they must not be any good if they are selling them so quickly GT3MEZ, Shedpest and SS 3 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
