PTS low mileage- 250K and up
over 10K - 30K 180ish
Under 10K 200ish
This is what I see, not sure final sales prices.
In the 'wish I had a time machine', I passed on DRL's perfect RS Green RS at 160K to buy my 991.2 GT3. I thought that price was just 'nuts'. Turns out I was
'nuts'! Ended up at Park Place and sold in a week, duh.

I have thoughts of selling mine ( white and red ) from time to time , but investment wise I think they will only go up in price , last of that engine , manual blah blah

Wait for another 2 years to sell. The farther away these things(997) is from the current RS/GT3, the more money in your pocket.

Darn it! Spoke too soon. Deal fell thru. Price went up 10K over what I was expecting so we could not agree on price. But, I have a fallback car which I will now pursue.
In the meantime, I can console myself with my new 964 RS that I just took delivery of this morning.

This always makes me wonder what my 64k mile example is worth. I have been offered $150k for it sight unseen but happily replied "not for sale". I do pay a stated value policy set to $180k as I know I couldn't replace my car as there are not really any direct comparables.
When I bought my RS it had 59k miles in 2013. It now has 64k miles in 2017 so is very slowly normalizing with my use pattern. Haha!

In meantime, good luck with search for 997rs.
IMO, 964rs and 997.2rs are the pair to own: the best of the new and the old. I don't have a ton of seat time in a 964rs but briefly had a garage queen 964 cup USA. The handful of times I drove it made me decide I had to sell that collector quality example and buy a driver. So I've been patiently waiting for my driver 964rs to turn 25 to avoid all the US dot/EPA conversion issues.
Might throw a 991rs in the mix for video game car experience. It's definitely different car but an amazing machine nonetheless. There's my trinity of 911s.

Not to mention that currently a 4.0 is what? 500 on average let's say with some 600 out there...meanwhile the .2rs offers an experience that is pretty darn close. (Some on this board have said they prefer it even) I know there are fewer 4.0 but I would think in short time a .2rs trades over a 991rs. We are prob just 6 mos away from that anyway.

Love the 964rs. I have one stored in Canada that I can bring grandfathered over the border this summer. Can't wait.

Anyone who owns a 964 RS now is, IMHO, very lucky as I fully expect prices to take off after these cars pass the 25 year mark and can be imported into the USA. Once you folks get a taste, look out.

I think the market has already moved and deservedly so.
