I figured it would be the most expensive....but surprisingly no All such low mileage aswell. Must be shit cars to drive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-banger Posted 12August, 2017 Report Share Posted 12August, 2017 Also Ne nice white GT4 with Martini livery for sale at PCM at similar pricing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must be shit cars to driveI think the 3rd gear transmission failures, suspension mounts cracking and engine issues plus the announcement of a new GT4RS has dampened demand. They are also not great cars to drive on the road as the gearing is very tall. One can reach 180km/hr in 3rd. Not forgetting that they aren't as rare as they were made out to be as Porsche made more of them to satisfy customer demand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So therefore unworthy of anyone's love. The Cayman is today's 928 mate we are just weirdos for liking them, cup holders and all!I hope you won lotto last night and have now bought four!

ANF Posted 14August, 2017 Report Share Posted 14August, 2017 The Cayman is today's 928 mate we are just weirdos for liking them, cup holders and all! So we can expect $5k pricing on them soon..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thumperson Posted 14August, 2017 Report Share Posted 14August, 2017 So we can expect $5k pricing on them soon..... lol. Yep for the good ones at least. It will be hard to pick the bottom of the market though so you can rush in for the bounce profit and then start your own "Cayman definitive values pushing the envelope" thread. I look forwards too it. Having said that, a nice white 928 GTS would look very nice in my garage but perhaps that horse has bolted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the horse has bolted on all the previously "cheap" Porsches.... not that the 928 GTS was ever cheap! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlitzKonig Posted 14August, 2017 Report Share Posted 14August, 2017 I assume you can get a lower ratio diff by now? Would be a weapon with a shorter ratio. Tarmac rally style.Sharkwerks have changed gearing from 3-5 and made them shorter. Seems like that made an improvement, a lot more shifting happening.Followed one in to work today, I love them, sits so well on the road, and 295 on the rear as factory, so much rubber for such a small car <3 P.s. Also that GT4 from Dutton's doesnt have the 918 seats which were an 18k extra. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wirthO Posted 14August, 2017 Report Share Posted 14August, 2017 Ahhh the internet... Where everyone gets their say. God bless it. Here goes my internet behind the keyboard rant:Bad news for you boys trying to snap up a cheap GT4. The new one will be far more expensive. The guys that are selling now are making a mistake, or need to sell their vehicle for some financial reason, or something along those lines. These bad boys will go up when the new one comes out. Expect a 275k plus price tag for the new one, as with R&D Porsche lost money on the original GT4. 30 cars out of how many thousand have had transmission issues. I have tracked mine 5 times and no dramas, and done over 8000km. I haven't heard of any issues in Australia?!On the track I like the long gear ratio but for road use, yup, I would prefer shorter gears. Like any GT car it's to powerful for the road. While I enjoy it, I much prefer to go the track and very much looking forward to Taliem Bend being completed here in SA. The motorsport state! And just to put more salt in the wound the best state to live! Rant over. Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes Chris, I can do a good deal for you, unload that unreliable GT4 to me, and I will reluctantly give you my Cayman S BUT WAIT .....THERES MORE....and as a sweetener throw in the beloved Bluebird, with a full tank of COSTCO petrol.
