Have a look at the Compensation thread I started 3 weeks ago. Post #1.
I believe it was comp based on 175E per day at the time I wrote amounted to approx 4500 USD. I havce not revisited it for clarification as I am awaiting ammunition in the form of other peoples experiences in other markets - however safe to say Ive heard from two other European GT3 owners who have been also offered 175E per day (voucher) so I believe its consistent message across Euro markets at least....

Nick makes good points.
I have to laugh however, when I read people saying they are keeping the car forever. Look at everyone's signature line, we've all owned previous cars. There is no car that anyone will keep forever. All cars are bought to be sold, this one included. Sam_Tx excluded for how long he has kept his 360.

but it's a way to exercise the car with minimal risk.

I do miss that car. The fastest I ever had or been in, ever. If I just had a few oil wells...

Anyway, in 10 years I'll be 74 and probably not too concerned about getting a new autocross car. In any event, depreciation on a 2014 991 GT3 that by then I will have enjoyed for a decade, will be a very minor concern. I think I'd rather hang on to the car and let my kids sell it someday.

Thanks Macca, I was sure happy once the car stopped moving and nothing hurt 
I had visions pain of waking up in the ambulance for a few seconds.
Now hoping it will be fixed before my 30 track days in CA in 3 months start. I maybe have to buy a plan B if not fixed in 14 days..
I hope compensation is enough and I hope the cars will be OK after they will be tracked a lot! Porsche needs to come through, it's taking too long had I owned the car.
What tracks? I'm supposed to be in Kiwiland for most of December, maybe I can rent a non-outlander, maybe even a Ute and find a track day!

It depends. Laugh if you like, Blue, but I will keep this car at least 10 years. Not saying I won't buy other cars in the meantime, but when I find a car I like I keep it. I owned my '84 Carrera for 13 years and my Lotus for 12.

Agree Mike, I can't see any other car coming close to this car and mine will be a keeper as well. Just look at Macca pictures. Sex on wheels. He needs to stop posting pictures. It makes it more difficult!!!! All we need is the damn car now. I need to go watch the Hitler video now.

No not minor. I always had track insurance in the RS, but this car was too cheap...

I'm sure. When you get to be my age though, your perspective tends to change about some things. Check back in a few years and we can discuss.

That was some serious speed.
What do you figured happened?
