Now on Carsales, still $199k ... Even more ambitious when the listing now shows the service book ... with services in 2008, 2014, then 2020 ... I'd be a bit worried about a car that had one service interrupting a 12 year stretch?! Also the video sounds like the lifters need replacing???

Also the video sounds like the lifters need replacing??? Something doesn't sound right. If it isn't the lifter, it could be a clogged oil passage somewhere. I don't mind the lack of services as the owner might have changed the oil themselves but the noise doesn't inspire confidence that the car has been well maintained.

So you would expect 20 dealer stamps in my log book. Average of 3500km per stamp on my service book. I challenge you to show me a 996 turbo service book that has less than 70k and has 20 porsche dealer stamps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the challenge is trying to set a, shall we say, “significant”, new high water mark for pricing in a down market with 13 missing stamps?

The Bern Dog Experience Posted 14February Report Share Posted 14February 1 hour ago, sleazius said: Wherever that was posted someone responded 250+ re: price - bang on. Good to see these things coming back to earth. That was on sale for nearly 18 mths on Carsales - the last listed price was maybe a few weeks ago at $268k. It initially started back in 2022 for $380K! Was also on consignment at Porsche Sydney South for a month or so for similar money 12 months ago. Is there a buyer's premium on collecting cars? If so, it may have cost more to buy it this way vs carsales at $268k (assuming there was still room to move) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JWM Posted 22February Report Share Posted 22February Legend @VGTS20 thanks. Jumped out of my seat when I saw this listing … found out it’s a UK car and has the grey interior but sounds well look after and the price is sharp!

I also see in some areas the gap between 996 and 997 closing, which then raises the question is the 997 a better value proposition and vehicle longer term. the Winter hibernation might make it a little more interesting. The above vehicle is in line with what you could pick up a UK vehicle for in the UK, plus adding forex costs, costs of shipment, duty, taxes, gst etc so I think its priced ok with a little more room for negotiation I would think. best of luck with finding the right vehicle and enjoyable motoring.

t888 Posted 22February Report Share Posted 22February If I'm not mistaken the 996 turbo is on the list of vehicles that can be imported under SEVs. We are about a year and a bit away from the earliest 996 turbos (released circa September 2000) meeting the 25 year rule too. Ps what has been sobering for me around 996/997 prices is looking at prices on NZ car sale sites. VGTS20 and JWM 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
