My GT3RS has just arrived and I have to decide what to do with my 16 GT3 which is heavily optioned minus the buckets.
Most likely I will sell the GT3, but curious if anyone kept both and why? Is there any reason to keep the 16 GT3 from an investment standpoint?
Also the car has less that 3k miles, I don't see to many 16 GT3s for sale. How is the market looking for this car? I am trying to figure out how to price the vehicle?

991GT3 will continue to drop in value at increasing rate. i see no reason to keep GT3 and RS

I kept mine. It makes a fun errand vehicle, does not get the same attention as some of my other cars. Not sure about the investment aspect, but I wouldn't use that as a criteria. I do think there is a floor so you won't lose to much keeping and driving it as you wish.
The RS does drive my much better imho.

I kept mine. The RS wont be driven as much. I love the look of both. Plus the GT3 has the 18 way seats that I think are way more comfortable than the bucket seats. both are great in their own ways. but do what you feel is best.

Mass produced cars aren't investments. But here are a few things to consider if you want to play that game in addition to the normal ownership cycle of these types of cars:
- upcoming GT3 will have latest spec engine, which all indications suggest will be more durable than what's likely in your car. this will be discounted by the market. by how much who knows, but it will be a factor.
- there's a group of current GT3 owner's that would've preferred to have a manual transmission. That will add an additional layer of used volume on the market that otherwise wouldn't be there assuming the well-telegraphed manual option in the upcoming GT3 materializes.
- what's your view on the current economic/interest rate cycle?
- the first rule in maintaining "investment" value is don't rack up mileage, so what's the point?
Congrats on the RS!

yes, sell it. Drive your RS and have fun. ;-)
The newer GT-Cars 991 GT3/RS and GT4 will decrease value significant in the foreseeable future in my opinion.

991 GT3's were mass produced? how many were exactly made?

Keep them all, just like Mooty! In all seriousness, keep it for a few months then decide. If it was me, I'd probably sell it if you only plan on keeping one.

I would sell. The GT3 and RS are too similar to justify keeping both and keeping the GT3 takes away the sense of "occassion" of driving the RS.
The RS will keep its value better than the GT3.
