I’ll go out a limb around current prices as a bit of fun to get into it 996 gt3. A good one. Real sale price at $180k or so, before duties etc. Maybe a little more but unlikely anymore? 996 gt3rs non collector grade. 1.5 x 996 gt3=$ 270k before taxes. collector grade 996 gt3rs = 1.5 x 996 gt3rs above= $ 405k before taxes. I doubt these really even get listed, just sell off market. Really appreciate your feedback. I've never seen 996 RS listed before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be a very obscure reference to use, as it's a one off Ad. I'm familiar with the car. It was a UK import, relatively High kms, and has some 'history'. It was sold requiring a substantial amount of work. So not the Pristine example. Ah, was this this the ex Tassie car your mate bought via Pickles auction? If so, I have driven this car, albeit briefly. Yes, it does have some history, understand it was on the UK equivalent of the WOVR???? I think can recall seeing some threads on one of the UK forums.

I will say at sub $200k for a vanilla 996 GT3, get buying... this is one of the greatest drivers cars of all time. luzzo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems if you currently own one of xx model it is considered worth more than the real market value. If those same people are looking to buy that same model, it's worth less.

edgy Posted 16November, 2023 Report Share Posted 16November, 2023 $300k for an OS example = $450k~ inc LCT, Duty, GST & shipping (no stamp duty) For one to obtain at this price & enjoy here, two things need to happen: Government to scrap all taxes on imported cars Tax Evasion One of those has a higher probability of occurring than the other, but also comes with a room mate named Bubba Whether we like it or not, those tax consequences are (more often than not), factored into local market pricing wherever you have a high tax jurisdiction (i.e. Asia) and does tend to adhere for the life of the car, more so if its a desirable model... the inverse is true where import laws are chill & taxes are low (i.e. NZ).

911 Posted 16November, 2023 Report Share Posted 16November, 2023 There was a UK one on carsales around a year ago for $300k from memory. I don't think it ever sold? Might be in the comments further back. At $450k, you'd be silly to bother. Just buy a 997. Markets been a bit tough on 996s since the covid surge. Maybe $300-$350k for an Aussie one would be my guess? Depends how bad you want one. Have any changed hands recently? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cafe_racer Posted 16November, 2023 Report Share Posted 16November, 2023 Same. Something like this could be fun. @James P and I had a little exchange on it. Suspect it’s a 996 road car with some cup bits. Cheap and cheerful way for a 996RS style performance potentially. James P 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spiller Posted 16November, 2023 Report Share Posted 16November, 2023 ^^^ that’s a 996 GT3 that has been converted to cup car specs but dialed back slightly for tarmac rally. A RS is not even in the same conversation as a cup in terms of performance. P-Kay, LeeM and Shedpest 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m getting itchy feet & have lately been looking at getting into something more comfortable for cruising with wife … 991’s & 992’s. If anyone is keen on getting into one of only two Australian Delivered midnight blue 996.2 GT3’s, reach out to me during this moment of weakness! Full history, 48K kms, touring, excellent condition. Tempted to keep it but seems a waste to have it living under car-cover. Will probably regret letting her go, but happy to discuss with any serious punters.
