That was second time up for that car, I can’t really remember what it got to last time though. vinnytang 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one you're thinking of might be another car, this UK 997S was also unsold last month. https://collectingcars.com/for-sale/2007-porsche-911-997-carrera-s-6?fbclid=IwAR09pxOU6YNYH00Xf2ig4VvptB0WBcG7cvKLxhTxneXeaxLH21vXNSJl7IE There's several British 997s on the market right now, seems like the market and the sellers aren't on the same page. sjm 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn’t see the very end so makes sense it ticked up a little higher than the last I saw. 4 hours ago, vinnytang said: seems like the market and the sellers aren't on the same page. True across the board for the most part. It’s definitely a car I saw list a month or two again, also passed in. I remember the blue interior and some other details.

t888 Posted 11May, 2023 Report Share Posted 11May, 2023 Yeah there have been a few 997s up for auction, none selling. 80k + 6% + ORCs would put this somewhere around $90k which sounds about right for a UK import to me. Aust delivered perhaps around $100. Also a few over last few months on other auction sites that also don't sell due to not meeting reserve.

sjm Posted 11May, 2023 Report Share Posted 11May, 2023 If that was me selling that car, I would have accepted the $80k. The 997 market has pretty much settled back to pre Covid pricing, and being an import it's not too far away from being top money. My thoughts anyway having sold my 997 C2S manual aus delivered recently. JWM and tomo 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe a little lower. I remember a Guards Red car I nearly bought around the time I decided to get the 996 instead that was priced about there, it was a nice one with fairly low kms. I wish Carsales provided really good data you could go back and look at. Harsh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JWM Posted 24May, 2023 Report Share Posted 24May, 2023 Some unsold P cars on Collecting Cars tonight and where the bidding got to ... The 997 was a manual with 70,000, GTS a PDK with 35,000k. Thought it might be useful to post some of these when I see them in this thread, since all Carsales tells you these days is what things don't sell for! Seems, generally, sellers on Carsales are asking about 15-20% more compared to where bidding is getting to using these as examples by the time you add fees ... sjm, Joz, SJC and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
