Will be to hard to sell when needed at 150+++ I wouldn’t be too concerned about km’s if you can get it for the right price Now think high $30’s but no mention of service history or ims would concern me KeyboardWarrior77 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What factory options are desirable? Does a GT3 Kit diminish value? TIA Series 1 oem aerokit adds value in my opinion. The last manual equivalent sold around 47k very quickly but I’d expect a tip will be harder to move so mid to high 30’s would be about right. Colour, sport seats, lsd and sport suspension all potentially add value. KeyboardWarrior77 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TIA Welcome, Thats a hard question to answer as there are too many variables: conditon, manual/tip, service history, import or not, colour interior and exterior etc etc. In my opinion a genuine kit will add value as the parts are removable if they aren't to your taste.

Thank everyone. It is a Factory full body GT3 Kit, i believe one owner and full logs. Not imported. I'm not sure of the specific colour names as of yet, looks to be well maintained paint Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gas Posted 14October, 2018 Report Share Posted 14October, 2018 If you’re after a tip and it’s had one good owner with full service history then buy it and drive...I think maintenance history is more important than mileage. You’d be hard pressed finding a good single owner car with full history, let alone one with factory aerokit. When the time comes to sell you’ll have a complete history for the car which is worth as much as 50000km on the odometer!

I am worried about the high km's for resale, as I might need to sell it in 6-12 months Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably a smarter option This is the better option, as the money you would put into the 996 short term even for general maintenance would cancel any potential profits that you may be lucky to see in a short turnaround.

This is why I said below $30k! There are good tip 996s available in the mid 30s, so to make a quick profit it would need to be below $30k and not cost you anything in maintenance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave997S Posted 21October, 2018 Report Share Posted 21October, 2018 OK, this has been through a number of potential buyers (me included - I offered him $47,500 and he refused when it was $55k) and still no sale. This, allegedly, had a deposit placed on it 2 months ago but the sale has fallen through. Was this anyone on here? Did you get a PPI?

Still I'd like to know if a PPI has been done and what it is saying...without paying for it ? I had a good look at it and took it for a drive when it was first advertised. Back then he would not negotiate on price and then wanted to take the original wheels out of the deal to drop the price marginally so I lost interest. Never got to a PPI stage and ended up buying a car in Melbourne. When I looked at it he had not had it serviced for a couple of years as I recall, but had done under 20,000 km since previous service so he believed it did not need one.

Dave997S Posted 23October, 2018 Report Share Posted 23October, 2018 Yeah, thanks (again) @PhilH. I’m considering offering him $43k without the stereo (well he says it’s worth $7k!!), get him to remove that suss radar rubbish, which would cover putting in IMS and clutch plus a service. Then again, for similar $$ I could get a Cayman S... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would think it will only become harder to find a good one going forward. That said, with the deteriorating conditions in the stock & property markets - you might just find some bargains coming onto the market.
