For the record - Clubsport, PDK, Buckets. This is going to go on for hours I reckon as it re-sets to 2 minutes everytime there's a new bid. at $226k.... No, I was wrong, all done at $226. Looked like came down to 2 bidders in the end...... JWM 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomk86 Posted 17July, 2023 Report Share Posted 17July, 2023 $226k is back to 2021 prices from memory. Still $50k less than the cheapest GT4 on Carsales mc968cs, JWM and Joz 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reedminor Posted 17July, 2023 Report Share Posted 17July, 2023 Looked at the 981s and thought roughly the same. I guess the owners have to decide just how motivated to sell they are? Yeatesy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sleazius Posted 17July, 2023 Report Share Posted 17July, 2023 MotIvated sellers appear to be using the auction sites these days. There are multiple makes/models I watch very closely on car sales and one in particular sees the cars rotated every 3 or 4 months for the past 2 years, nothing actually selling, prices barely moving.

It really does seem like there is a shift to this trend for those wanting to take a car to market and get it sold... I am going to take one of mine to auction soon (non P car) being LHD, I think there is a broader market for it, time will tell... I use to think Car Sales was the platform for serious sellers, now I think it is a joke, and that is not a dig at them, but the fishermen that list their stuff for sale, this could be a consequence of the "listed till its sold" terms, maybe they need to go down a similar path to realestate and their marketing fees...

Yes - and looking at what the deman 981 sold for a few months ago , which appeared to be very well sorted, they are 10-20% too high? Maybe more?

997nut Posted 21August, 2023 Report Share Posted 21August, 2023 What are people's thoughts on the 981 GT4 market at the moment? The yellow clubsport at Hamiltons has just had a price drop to $189k. Quite a few sub-$200k cars now. The $200k+ cars don't seem to have much to justify the higher prices. Hard to know if they'll keep dropping, and if so, by an amount which is worth waiting for...?

My car was well spec’d- sold quick when I bought it, sold quick enough when I sold it. I think colours and specs command a premium as with other cars of course. Accountant Grey….. discount 😜🫢 They are awesome things the 981GT4. I say live in the now- buy your cars sooner for more enjoyment- cash is just part of your imagination.

They’ll keep dropping, reality/sanity has returned and cars depreciate again… who knew … I can only assume most of what’s listed on Carsales now is by people without any strong motivation to actually sell … but it’s pretty clear if you bought today and “had to sell” tomorrow, you’d be taking a bath buying one of those listed at 220, 230, etc. But that was always true until recently I guess so @Peter John is not wrong … negotiate hard, buy and enjoy.

DS911 Posted 23August, 2023 Report Share Posted 23August, 2023 If the general consensus is that a decent 981 is high 100's, where would that put the 718's? There are currently 6 x 718's on Carsales ranging from $275,000 to $310,000. There was also one sold on Collecting Cars in July this year for $226K: https://collectingcars.com/for-sale/2022-porsche-718-cayman-gt4 I am asking because I am considering buying one, so am now doing my research on what I should be paying and where the values may end up in the next 3-5 years.
