No idea... just fishing perhaps? Carsales is a one time ad cost, so really no incentive to take the ad down... however for serious buyers, a car that stagnates on the market just develops a bad stigma!

Yeatesy Posted 17June, 2021 Report Share Posted 17June, 2021 It’s not just the cars that have gone up in price 😆 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLD Posted 17June, 2021 Report Share Posted 17June, 2021 I enquired on this one on 30th March 2020. It was $39,995 at the time https://www.carsales.com.au/cars/details/2001-porsche-911-carrera-cabriolet-996-auto/SSE-AD-4630521 The seller didn’t respond, it had been on the market for quite some time back then. 15 months later it’s gone up to $69,000. This is surely not a genuine seller Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sleazius Posted 18June, 2021 Report Share Posted 18June, 2021 Haven't been on here in a long time but i may sell mine. Still undecided but given I've driven it 300km in the past 3 years. Maybe. Just put an order in for another one and i may need the space. I'll think about it. Yeatesy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TwoHeadsTas Posted 24April, 2022 Report Share Posted 24April, 2022 Time for an update to this thread. What's the current thinking on a 997 Carrera S for $100-$120k? Unobtainium? What are .2 PDKs going for S and non S?? Starting to think again about downtrading the 996.1 GT3, would like to come out with $50k or so after....

I’d only buy a 987.2 S & this is the only one on Carsales, judging by current asking prices for 996 GT3’s you’d be a chance. https://www.carsales.com.au/cars/details/2010-porsche-911-carrera-s-997-series-ii-auto-my10/OAG-AD-20652125 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sjm Posted 24April, 2022 Report Share Posted 24April, 2022 997.1 manual coupes with under 100km in good condition probably around 120k. That said 170k being asked for some 4S coupes on C/S. Big asks compared to 12 months ago. No many to choose from either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Low mile cars are seemingly rare, but I think that speaks volumes for how useable they are more than anything! 997.2 pricing, well I would have to start smoking some crack to understand some of the asking prices I have seen, they make zero sense to me most the time, the ones that are priced right tend to evaporate. mc968cs and sleazius 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edgy is pretty spot on re 997.1 C2s manuals, have just completed a transaction for a friend , lower kms perfect service history in that range Re 997.2 C2s manuals, I have just bought one my self , 27,000kms This appeared on market today. 2009 Porsche 911 Carrera S 997 Series II Manual MY09 (carsales.com.au) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwoHeadsTas Posted 28April, 2022 Report Share Posted 28April, 2022 OK, seriously thinking now. A couple have come up in Tassie which I'll look at over next week. If you have one you are thinking about selling, please PM me - looking for .2 PDK coupe, would consider a cab, or .1 manual coupe. Any colour but black Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjm Posted 12June, 2022 Report Share Posted 12June, 2022 https://www.grays.com/lot/0001-60020333/sports-and-luxury-cars/2005-porche-carrera-s-manual-coupe-wovr-inspected?redirect=0 Could be a good entry to the 997 manual coupe market if cheap enough. WVOR is hail damage that looks to be repaired and also an import from UK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
