Can anyone shed light or steer me towards resources that give projected future value of used 2012 991 models in the year 2017? Say with 30-40k miles and modestly equipped?

Sounds about right. https://rennlist.com/forums/997-foru...ge-milage.html
Driving home from Jackson Hole one time there was a 1980-something 7-series BMW almost kept up with my 79 SC going over the pass. By the time I got down on the flats I thought he was long gone. But then here he comes, 120-130, passes me and with Idaho plates I figure he must know something so on we went, and smooth sailing too just so long as I stayed a good 100 yds back, far enough to let the grit from his wake settle down. When he stopped for gas I did too and after admiring each others cars he expressed some regret at how much more his car had depreciated than mine. I asked if he planned on selling it. No. Then what do you care what someone else thinks your car is worth? You're still driving a damn fast high performance car, its given you many years of driving pleasure, its paid for, and its still a blast to drive.
You asked for resources to shed light on future value. Well here it is: park it and its hard to think of a worse investment. Drive it and its priceless.

Total conjecture anyway, but what do people think will be a realistic bottom price point as well as any potential upward swing (as minor as it may be). Most older 911 price lines tend to look more like a U than an L in the long run it seems. (no, I'm *not* saying its an "investment" lol)

Air cooled
Limited production numbers
Not going to happen with our 991 variant.

Was just quoted 58% as the lease residual after 36 mos 12k miles/yr. But as stated above, pure conjecture. Lately I've been privately selling my cars and what the market will bare is quite different than KBB or NADA book values - even grading my cars conservatively. YMMV but I wouldn't consider any of these numbers carved in stone.
