Rick V Posted 11September, 2021 Report Share Posted 11September, 2021 I’m currently in the middle of insurance renewal on my 6.2 GT3……. Currently with MB ….. they will only go to $160K …… anything over that, they want a formal valuation. Hunting other quotes now… happy to hear anyone else’s recent experience.. maybe that’s new (or recycled) thread …. Keen to see where silver CTS car ends up.

I haven’t seen any trade lately or been close to a transaction in over 1 year… historically, they have been around 2 x GT3 price… except for last year, the gap was $100k~ give or take Surely high 4’s? note: I’m not a current seller or buyer! edgy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn’t take too kindly to that, and fair enough as I was kicking his tyres fairly hard. I have noticed the UK based 6RS are now asking 140-170 gbp depending on milage and condition, so they’ve risen quite sharply over there. Curiously, the non RS cars have not gone up much. Perhaps their market is lagging behind ours slightly, which is interesting, because back in 2015 when 996s were worth peanuts, it was the UK market that spiked first. This seemed to kick off the initial rise Aussie market. I suspect the gap between RS and non is still about 100ish. I agree, your valuation would want to start with a 4.

I had a similar experience with MB when I got a quote through them earlier in the year when I bought mine. They offered me 149K, with a hefty premium to boot. edgy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we all agree that the 996 GT3 is a great car but the best part about it is actually driving it. Not sure there’s a whole lot of driving value at this price point.

911 Posted 15September, 2021 Report Share Posted 15September, 2021 I'd have valued that GT3 at CTS at $200k, if didn't know the price. Maybe a $10-$20k CTS premium at $220k Max. Is that reasonable? Feel like that's a very optimistic price considering the red one at Autohaus was listed at $199k. I don't have 996, nor purchasing.

Just following the market FYI The "issue" i see is this..... We all know they (and Duttons - both owned by same PE firm) have been squirrelling away cars for years..... When they pull this type of thing on a recent sale/buy - and everyone knows there is 40 points in it - then we think ALL of their cars have 40 points in them (which TBH i'm not sure they do) - which in turn creates their dilemma.... they either sit or they lower the price.... then everyone wants discounts..... No-one would be having this discussion if the collective didn't know it had sold 12 months previous for $100k less. But we do know...

RHD anything = small market = smaller numbers of cars built = smaller demand in reality (not a ww market) Anything super rare (964RS x 6 sold in AU or 993RS x 37 sold in AU) will always be desirable, i know of at least 3 x 993RS sales over $700K GTP911 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

symsy Posted 17September, 2021 Report Share Posted 17September, 2021 Nearly 1 full tank of BP 98 Ultimate fuel @$1.77 successfully consumed, so went back and filled her to the brim, slightly more consumption than a GT3 but there you go. What happened whilst I was gone did the 290k car sell ? So tell me for the $290k would you expect to get a full tank of gas , up to date harnesses and fire extinguisher and perhaps even a fresh set of brakes and tyres and as its a GT3 a brake flush ... cos you would wanna drive it yeah?
