looks like a radio delete (I have a fetish for radio delete cars) but some crazy owner retro-fit a radio unit

Beautiful. They want $270k for it.

When I was up in the Bay Area I saw this car at events from time to time. It has been driven quite a bit definitely compared to most R’s. The owner in the video’s below I believe is the original owner who had the car up until last year. The second owner I bet put that eyesore of a head unit in. Also this car is an A/C delete example.

Yea that seems about right, ~$50k over sticker, I've never seen a higher build than that one. There is over $20K in special wishes alone on that build sheet. All very tastefully done. They've also added a numeric short shifter and a GMG exhaust to it and will include the original exhaust and shifter. Personally, I like to keep my pcars stock, I'm pretty boring like that, but I can see how some people might consider that a value add.

Hey Berg, if its not too much trouble would it be possible to post 991.2 GT3 prices?

Sorry to be a noob here, but Manheim is "wholesale", dealer to dealer? Or auction house to dealer? And grade is on a zero to five scale?

ClickClickBoom

Wholesale dealer to dealer. Correct, grade is 0-5. I doubt most residents on this forum would even consider a car under 4.5. The 2.5 car listed, I would consider trash.

And what do we envision the average dealer buying a 175k to 195k GT3 is expecting to profit on the vehicle? A few thousand? More?

ClickClickBoom

They will mark that up 10-15k. Actual sale price ???

Your trade value will be about 10% under wholesale.

I work for a dealer and you need your license to buy at wholesale auctions. Typically 4.5-5.0 is the condition you want.

Dealers have varying margins depending on many factors.

Some dealers will be taking losses or very little margin on some recent purchases too close to retail, unless they find non researched buyers… or ones that were purchased 6mo ago and still holding on and hoping.

typically dealers that only do consignment have 5-12% commissions on the sale.

Dealers that buy their inventory take more risk and output capital thus “try” for higher margins 10-20% however with the market changing so quickly that is a risky play. In addition, they have costs to overcome such as overhead, sales commission, detail, service, marketing etc.

A trade last week for a 10k mi gt3 was at $170k. It’s listed for $213k. 43k total mark up with likely costs of $5k service, $8k pac, $5k OH. So total net profit of sold at list is $25k.

Saw this car maybe a month ago when I visited my dad up north.

The red wheels and graphics look atrocious tbh and keeping that wing up should be illegal (which the dealer still had up), but it just didn't look good in person.

I LOVE 911 R's...but this one just looked so meh, couldn't really tell you why...Maybe if they repainted the wheels silver and took the goofball graphics off and lowered the wing...

If it looked really good....some rich dude in Carmel/monterey would have just bought it, it has been sitting awhile.
