Had a black car (Lotus Exige S), they are a pita, look great when clean, you always want it clean colours so subjective, but for me, anything not black (love White) and not clubspec 997 gen 1 or 2 I'm interested in, ready to buy now. PM if that's you Budget for a full wrap in paint protection film then all of your worries about swirl makes will fade away (and you’ll be left with one of the hottest colours for a 997 GT3). luzzo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T-Man Posted 20May, 2020 Report Share Posted 20May, 2020 I believe the red one was the Richmonds car that was listed at $169K a few months ago. Cage, exhaust and a couple if nice items added. http://richmonds.com.au/portfolio/2007-porsche-gt3-touring/ luzzo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My impression was a little different to that presently conveyed, but perhaps take my view with a grain of salt, as I do have a vested interest here! Also inteesting is that the white ex-Gulsons car that was briefly adverteised by AH has not re-appeared. See black $210k at Mona Vale sold. Anyone here?

wilson59 Posted 20May, 2020 Report Share Posted 20May, 2020 While there is talk of these cars dipping it price it really shows no weakness in pricing just maintaining. The 180 to 200 K range seems to be the sweet spot for a car to change hands . This seems to be the normal . I gave up on trying to find the bargain more so securing the car I wanted before someone else bought it . us72t and firstone 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couple of points about the car that didn't suit me. I did make an early offer, but the seller and I were a little too far away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what you are referring to here @us72t, but i have spoken with seller and this is the same car that sold by Richmonds last year as @T-Man has said. In fact Richmonds have sold this car a couple of times over. I know that it's not uncommon, but this car has actually had a Lot of different owners. 2 hours ago, us72t said: Also inteesting is that the white ex-Gulsons car that was briefly adverteised by AH has not re-appeared.

I believe the White 997GT3 is just being prepped for sale, and is still available. Sorry, I guess I wasn't clear. I'm not doubting that it's the same car - I just recall (possibly incorrectly) being told it's had some track time, whereas I inferred from the carsales it had not (by the phrase "unraced").Not that there's anything wrong with track time, and I do not know the car and may well be mint. Very impressive markup though! Thanks for update on the white one. luzzo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the sellers I have spoken to have disclosed that they have been receiving offers around the $175-$185 range. I have been holding out for my ideal car, and like anyone I would love to find that elusive 'bargain'. But I guess if the perfect car appears, it will be more about the car being right, as long as the price is in the range. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But a V10 Lambo with pretty much straight pipes has a note even at 4,000RPM.
