The 40k mile cars have performed no differently from the 10k cars. Only way to know the difference is looking at the odometer if taken care of properly and fastidiously
I second that. I want a GT car to drive and go over multiple sets of tires and brake pads . PPF is for easiness of marble cleaning. Currently, you can't find one wo an absurd mark up, same for used. If you use it as intended, you'll suffer way more depreciation due to "high miles" (above 10k) and being driven "hard" than average. These cars are made to be driven, some low miles 3 yo RS is more concerning to me than a 5k MY18.
Porsche doesn't care, the speakerships even less. Car is not a commodity if still made in the thousands. Too much liquidity will eventually dry up (pun intended) and then they will become available again. In 2008 a GT3 would sit at a dealer for a long time for MSRP and they were far rarer than today. I'm cashing up, waiting for the bear...
I remember PTS 2010 GT3 RS sitting at the dealer, not selling....and you got no ROI on options.
I left this world to go burn money racing and came back to GT3 investments....12K PTS cars....and people concerned with axle lift or not
Hope nobody ever sees my 27K mile RS...it has lots of over revs, as I shifted at the rev limiter or would hold t there on a straight to avoid a shift....dents in the flare from track out cones...third transmission....but I love it and will never sell it. Motor runs like the day I bought it from Mooty

The horror!
Don't let the PTS/PPF police find out...
dealers wants people that purchase multiple cars along the years. It's the opposite of that that built the Porsche name and conversely almost drove it off the market in the 70's. According to a local German, the cars didn't break at that time, were relatively economical nor changed much along the years, so why buy another one? Again, that's very German. Good for you to have your RS maturing with proper miles in it. On PCA events we don't see that many 997 GT cars on DEs, at least Chicagoland.
anything over 5,000 miles gives these new money type buyers the *******. If you ppf, condition is never really a problem.
Well my 3RS will be over 5K in about a month and a half at the present rate.......I rarely drive this car less than 50 miles when out and about, man it's hard not to. I guess I will be holding onto it for the foreseeable future.
