The ad doesn't say whether it's an import or not (vin seems to decode to europe market?) Currently up at $108k after a few price drops. https://www.carsales.com.au/cars/details/2003-porsche-911-turbo-996-auto-awd-my04/SSE-AD-13778121/?Cr=0 I reckon you can be guided by one my first posts back in 2016 which was a bit of a thesis length wise . Flame suit was on back then when opining on what a specific model of 996 turbo in Silver was worth back t h en. You would want to garage that cab assuming not AU delivered and have 5k to spend on it for must do's for an all in outlay not exceeding 5 figures as I see it. Garage cost is purchase price, plus shipping to garage, plus stamp duty plus rego Plus insurance. On a 996 turbo need 5k irrespective of 160k or 16k travelled. Need to spend dollars on aged rubber bits to tighten it up and a bit of some preventative maintenance on boost piping rubber, plus a major service from your indi even if one was apparently done a month ago. On that one you would want to fit in a markski ecu tune and tranny tweak and some borrowing of mercedes parts to save numbing your thumbs. Just a view but from a butt dyno perpective standout is a third gear pull on a 996 turbo. But maxing out at the stock 0.7bar vs seeing at least 1.0 bar of boost based on a bit of ecu tweaking is akin to buying a 996 gt3 and not seeing t h e tacho every go over 3500 rpm. Whats the point of owning a mezger and not experiencing what their capable of every now and then on your watch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some buyers won't touch a auto and if history is a guide, since I have kept a keen eye on 996 /997.1 turbo prices since 2015, there has always been a premium for a manual over an auto like for like condition. So I am seeing three manuals on car sales at the moment( non auto's) and the asking is no way near your 150k realistic pricing for a Manual. Eg I am seeing askings of circa 299k, 250k, 250k. Unlike yourself not at all surprised with their initial asking. Will they sell at those askings. I suspect not. Would they sell at 150k absolutely . Will the sellers let them go at 150k, absolutely not in my view if inferior condition wise auto's are going for 160, 150, 140, 130, 120.

For some reason people seem to think I think manual 997.1 turbos are worth around $150k. I'm not sure if something I wrote has got lost in translation . My opinion is that tiptronic 997.1 turbos would sell quickly in that price range. Manual 911's have historically always commanded a hefty premium over tips across all series from 964 onwards......

I think your pricing is more in line with 996 rather than 997.1 to be fair.... 996 tips are creeping towards 100k (I know, not there yet but sitting in the teens) in coupe and starting to dip under $100k in cab! Pre covid they got as low is around $80k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mention of one at 150k at duttons, but no mention of auto vs manual, no mention condition to support that keys were changing hands on manuals at that pricing of 150k. That said I will eat a small piece of humble pie. I did see a 997.1 silver Manual on Facebook market place a couple of days ago with a asking price starting with a 1 and km's travelled starting with a 1 and over 5 digits. But at circa 197.5k its closer to 200k than 150k. Just a view, the other 3 look look a bit peachier and I can appreciate them asking for more as they are all not alike. Having had cracks at outlier ( usually private) 997.1 turbos way back on a couple of manuals, bit of luck required as well. Eg your competing with other like minded buyers eye balling the car within 1 hour of the private ad being placed and its an unconditional offer or theres non risk averse buyers ( no ppi) from interstate offering overs and sight unseen within the hour. 911virgin Posted 9February On 09/02/2023 at 13:49, on_booost said: LOL, Even in 2017/18 there were exactly zero 997 TT around $100K. If that was the case - what's a 996 turbo worth? $70K???? NO chance! true, prepandemic, 997.1 turbo were selling at lows of $150k in 2081/19............i remember Dutton sold a white 997.1 turbo with 70000kms for around $150k 2018/19 im just stating what i think they are worth and the price theyd move very quickly at Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went and had a look at it when it was just listed, before photos were up. They were asking $140k which I figured meant it must be beyond immaculate ... It was not... Probably been detailed since but it didn't look like a well loved example to me. Mind you I just walked around it quickly.

CapnHyaku Posted 19April, 2023 Report Share Posted 19April, 2023 31 minutes ago, JWM said: They were asking $140k It's 126K now which is not bad at all for a 997. The cheapest one i recall was in 2020 at $80K but it had a tonne of KM on it. All the others were about $100K then. So $126K is a good buy I reckon. But those 3.8L engines are a bit hit and miss from my armchair opinion and makes me wonder given it didn't look well-loved as you say in the first walk-around.
