And very striking in guards red… Seems I wasn’t the only one who went driving with a guards red 997 yesterday then!

Bandyboy33 Posted 10January, 2022 Report Share Posted 10January, 2022 On 28/11/2021 at 19:24, hugh said: Totally depends on the event. I was at a Porsche club Vic event today, approx 120 completion cars, At a guess at least 50% (possibly more) were GT cars, mostly 991’s (and a 992 GT3) I think 4-5 997 GT3’s (including a 997 RS) and 3 x 996 GT3’s including my RS. A small day we ran at Winton earlier in the year, 40 cars, I’d say at least 15 -20 996 GT3’s, 5-10 997 GT3’s and a couple of 991 GT3’s. Porsche club events in general are wealthy owners wanting the latest, greatest & fastest. As a result you’ll get a higher proportion of 991’s, GT4’s etc. Our little Winton gathering on the other hand, more ‘enthusiast’ base, less about lap times, more about exercising the cars for fun so it was overrun with playful 996’s. They are very much still out there being used, just depends on the event and/or the circle of Porsche owners you hang out with. Economics don’t come into the discussion from my point of view, that’s totally overthinking it. Hey Hugh, just a quick question. The 997 gt3's you saw you mentioned what colours were they? Reason I ask I have 997.2 riviera blue and wondering how many in the country? Ever seen a 997.2 riv blue in your travels ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sleazius Posted 11January, 2022 Report Share Posted 11January, 2022 There was a riv blue one for sale out of WA many moons ago on car sales (2012ish). It had the riv blue interior plastics. That is the only one I've seen since they came out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, at the moment you just put up ads with ridiculous prices on them in the hopes you get someone desperate. Especially if supply is tight.
