Agree, its a superb looking car in a perfect spec... i agree $ wise for spec and rarity it seems about right -- The high end 997's 09-11 like the Turbo, GT3, and GT3RS sold in low numbers world wide. These cars are really well regarded and represent the last of the small body architecture, Mezger Engine, hydraulic steering etc... which adds to the story, creating appeal.

Have you short changed yourself on that number you mentioned a couple of weeks ago by about 15 to 20%. Worth more tweaked or do you take one back to stock. What do you reckon, we scale the sell price based on km's and build year with that as the baseline eg it is a 2005 model. That would have you at circa 150k and I'll split the difference at 164k.

Yes very perceptive, same driveway in the pics and must of broken the vacuum cleaner when detailing the 996 turbo. Obviously takes more pride in the 996 turbo and not a BP fan in terms of petrol preference or is it a case of being a bit tight on putting km on the 996 gt3. E.g. could of thrown a few coins into a bp coin vacuum cleaner whilst filling up with some 98 after taking it for a spin around the block. Certainly not shy of putting a premium on lower kilometres. At those prices that gets you very close to a free carry upgrade into that red 997tt and a 997.1gt3 if you can look beyond low km's. micknine01 and Fraz 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think most Porsche buyers are hung up on low km’s personally I buy on condition and what type of car guy the previous owner is. I could name at least five guys here I would buy a car from in a heart beat. My point is, it’s more the owner combined with the car over the car itself. The above mentioned cars are good examples of what I wouldn’t buy. As you touched on Smity if the seller can’t be stuffed getting out at a vacuum, how does he treat the cars in general. Petty I know but speaks volumes in my eyes. As for low mileage, I have been involved with two very low mileage 911s both have had at least $20K spent due to degradation of parts such as suspension, tyres and drive components from sitting not to mention they are just very unhappy cars until they are driven a “lot” with fresh fluids. Valuable lessons were learned. Give me a true enthusiast owner, who has driven and looked after the car, god forbid modified it, dare I say even serviced it themselves all this shows true enthusiast over one who services it with the bloody dealer, is too scared to drive it because “oh god I have to save the car for the next guy or I might loose money here” kind of owner. Yeah sure we all like to make some money out of a car or break even, but I think times have changed in the Porsche world of late. So drive em boys they aren’t worth what you think they are. 7 hours ago, smit2100 said: So are we gearing up for a big spring clean out on the 996 turbo front??

Mate, as you suggest it would have to be a pretty bloody good offer for me to sell the turbo, what do I replace that particular car with ? I have no plans or want to sell in the foreseeable future, yes the thought did go through my mind but that soon evaporated once I made the realisation it doesn’t get much better than this for the $. scashin, KeyboardWarrior77, DT and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Petty I know but speaks volumes in my eyes. Spot on Fraz, especially with a high end car and an over the top price. Obviously not short of a quid and he can't be stuffed taking it for a service - only four services incl one major and one plugs and only one brake fluid change in 13 years. I would suggest that at that price it should come wrapped in cotton wool with a service stamp every year - and a bottle of vintage Grange Fraz 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephen Tinker Posted 13July, 2018 Report Share Posted 13July, 2018 The car also looks like it needs a new alternator / battery too, as the voltmeter only read 12v @ 1200 rpm...…….. I wonder if it was originally a Duttons car (number plate logo), if so he would have paid top $$ for it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
