On the other hand, $150k spent on an '05 Ford GT would've been a helluva investment.

.
It's probably worth (well) north of 100k but even if it's 150k (which I wouldn't think unrealistic) it wouldn't have been that much of an investment...

It seems that car is going through the flip cycle. Great color.

I'm coming into this thread as a seller of car that probably qualifies and need some pricing opinions. 2003 Guards Red over Natural Brown 6-speed coupe. X50 but no Aero kit and no ceramic brakes. Current mileage is just under 9K. I bought it two years ago with ~5K miles. Other than a great trip to Rennsport Reunion V I haven't driven it much. Not a practical car for where I live so it needs to go where it will be driven more. I paid a premium for it when I bought it. Most likely going to a family member and I want to be fair to them. Thoughts?

I would expect to see a car like that for sale for high 60s or into the 70s if it is a 6spd. Maybe more. Sounds like a nice car and a good color combo!

Nice car. I don't get when people say it's not practical as the car was originally marketed as not a sports car, but more of a GT car. It's a great car for every day use.

When this car gets listed for sale (which I'm guessing will be within the next couple of days) I think we will be able to close this thread LOL, J/K Seriously though...

Didn't even realize it was the Marshall Goldman car...oh well, that new dealer is about 10 minutes from my house if anyone needs a rennfax!!! Just a guess but I'm sure there will be no test drives.

Not that we'll ever find out, but what's your over/under for the $ the dealer has in the car? I say $80k.

I must have gotten pretty lucky....when my fiance and I were searching for her first Porsche, we stumbled upon an '03 996TT with 13k miles. Seal gray over black with carbon interior package. Car had Champion wheels, K24 turbos, intake/exhaust, and clutch all done. We took it home for $55k.

How long ago was it? Regardless, yes, you did well with your purchase. The 996TT market has really changed in the past year.
