Happy to discuss the car in detail with genuine buyers, give me a call Brent 0401 710645 Brent, would be more than happy for you to get that price (I think we all would) 🙂 Burgerman 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hugh Posted 13August, 2019 Report Share Posted 13August, 2019 I'd love to know where all of the "cheap" 996 GT3 Clubsports are? Reality is they are very thin on the ground, Brent's is the only one listed and I can only recall 2-3 that have been listed in the same amount of years. Not easy cars to find and a lot of owners (myself included) are hanging onto them..................cue the "yeh but you can now get a 997 GT3 for 170k.........." comments - chalk and cheesy. Best of luck with the sale Brent, great cars and worth every penny. craiggt3rs, Harold996tt, micknine01 and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RwGreeny Posted 14August, 2019 Report Share Posted 14August, 2019 I doubt their would be an Aus delivered 996 GT3 that hasn’t seen a track day. If someone was in the market for a fun weekender or car to take to the occasional track day. I think that their prays have been answered in Brent’s car. It’s been maintained and serviced correctly plus you’re getting a few quality bolt on extras and all for a reasonable price DJM, craiggt3rs, hugh and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunno When I was looking for my GT3 going back a couple of years these cars still came up at that pricing .

Yeah it was a pretty cheap 997 especially when you compare it to an air cooled anything, I think it was a cheap car granted but you can’t compare high klm cars to low k ones. That’s why it was cheap.

I agree Hugh, haven’t seen a ‘cheap’ 996 clubsport in years and unless the sky falls in, I doubt you will ever again. 8 hours ago, RwGreeny said: I doubt their would be an Aus delivered 996 GT3 that hasn’t seen a track day.

I have just sold my 08 997 GT3 with under 30,000 km on it and it has cost me just over $4000 to get it ready for it's new owner .

SS 3 Posted 15August, 2019 Report Share Posted 15August, 2019 As an owner of a GT3 CS I encourage all other 996 and 997 owners to remember that their car is quite unique in Australia with limited numbers bought into the country. There is a lot of interest in these cars from Porsche enthusiasts that are potential owners one day. Pricing of these cars will fluctuate relating to supply and demand. More supply less demand prices will have the potential to turn down, less supply more demand prices will strengthen, of course there is such a thing as a flat market or lets say a transition point where markets tend to bubble away with no clear direction. I encourage current owners to think about how and when you market your car, be confident that there is a lot of interest in these cars, much more interest than the number of cars that are available. 2 minutes ago, wilson59 said: Hard to see what is mint and cheap from images .
