It will go down. But its not gonna tank anytime soon unless everything tanks.

If I'll not get one, it's PAG's problem, not mine. I'll drive the old one and money will go somewhere else.

I somehow believe all 997 and 911 Porsche GT cars will significantly go down in price soon. I think we'll see a 15-20% correction to what's considered "normal" now. 997 GT3, 997 GT3RS and 991 GT3 are not moving much at current price level. 991 GT3RS seems to follow the same pattern now. "Market adjustment" is getting lower and lower.

If I would care about resale value, I would try to sell my GT3 with discount to "normal" right now. Just I buy cars to drive them, so I always think once money is spent it's gone. Especially when you track your cars you're somehow getting used to a philosophy of zero value. The only way to justify this "investment" is to have as many fast laps as you possibly can.

I agree with Levd, the market is softening but my main concern is the engine reliability issue. All we need is another IMS issue that will drive prices in the toilet.

levd

If you care about the price - sell it right now. Or don't buy it now, if you don't have one.

991.1 GT3 will only go down in price from current level. I assume 7-10K a year pace for next few years.

I think they will depreciate exactly "9000" dollars a year...

levd

And RS probably 8800 a year

The only issue with the 991.1 GT3 is potential long term reliability scares. I'm honestly kinda freaked out that engine and transmission being one out of warranty. Us non 1 percenters have bank accounts to worry about lol.

Bingo. I still remember some of the folks on here trying to tell me that there will be less than 1,000 US RSs and that production will stop in the summer....so much for that, huh? We'll end up closer to 1,800 RSs when the dust settles. Porsche is in business to make money not to make sure the GT cars that it sells to go up in value. They'll make enough .2GT3 for just about everyone that wants one.

Prices tanking. I really don't care. I've never bought a car worrying about what it will be worth down the road. If I plan on selling it in 2, 5, 7 years from now, I'II worry about it then, but for now I'm enjoying it too much.

I dont see anyone owning 2014 or 2015 cars out of warranty. I swear to god if I was given a GT3 in those model years out of warranty 50% off MSRP, I wouldnt own one. This is not an exaggaration. Its not a car you baby, its a car you drive the hell out of and I for one redline my cars multiple times a day.

We'll see how well 2016 engines go reliability wise. I think they may have improved things but I think car may need a major engine redesign (aka 991.2) to totally cure the issue.

Same thing happened with rod bearing issues and the last gen M3. Its tough to correct issues resulting from a design error mid cycle, especially when its the engine.

Call me crazy but I think there may be a correlation between the 120 GT3s in the used car market and the raise in "engine blew" threads here in the last 3-6 months.

What will cure this is if Porsche gives lifetime warranty for this specific type or failure (not sure how they could differentiate a regular engine failur from a failure due to lack of oiling). I dont see them doing this because its tough to come up with an exact definition and prevent abuse (of warranty coverage).

Well, if you go mclaren, you're lucky if you only vaporize 40k. Coming from a mclaren owner...

robmypro

I don't know what the price of anything will do in the future. What I do know is going through a tunnel at 9k is a riot.

Statistically speaking, there will be a recession in the next four years.

So yes, prices will go down and the sun will come up.

usctrojanGT3

I buy cars to drive and with the thought that they will depreciate. The more they depreciate the more I drive them.
