Production in the future
Hello! New member here, I just signed a contract regarding GT3 Touring. I have one question, how do you think the market will be over the next years, not only regarding gt3s. Now when the automotive world is struggling will they just cash in on their best seller? And bump the production numbers up regarding the most attractive cars? Or is it proffitable for them to still play the game with the customers by having them buy Panamera, Cayennes and so on? What do you think? Also regarding to the C02 average on cars and manufactures, how does it work? Could these regulations be limiting Porsche of how many 911,gt3s they can produce, or am I thinking wrong?
I clearly see that the prices have gone down in my market (Sweden) regarding the 992.1 GT3 for sale. But roughly at the break even point. How do you see the future of gt3 (992.2) will they hold their value or be a bit over in the beginning, or are those times over?
Would be greatly appreciated if anyone had time to answer this!

Enjoy the car, who cares about future values. If the value goes up, congratulations; if it goes down, well most vehicles depreciate so nothing to beat yourself up about over.

No one can tell you what the values might be, much depends on the world economy, ultimate desirability of the model and year you purchase. Your options, condition of your car and your market have a lot to do with the values. With that said, GT3 Tourings are highly desirable and it would be a good bet it will hold it's value pretty well; However, it sounds like you are a bit too worried about value versus if it is the right car for you. As someone who has only purchased 4 Porsches, you don't miss the money once the car is home.

hey. I just came from the future. Porsche increased production so now anyone can get any model they want with no wait and now prices are as they were in the 90s. They also reverted the 911 to mostly analog and went back to air cooled and naturally aspirated. They also frequent rennlist and incorporate our feedback into newer models. Women also notice the car too. Hope this helps.

And they brought the AM radio back, a washer for the rear wiper, adjustable seat belt, a seat recliner that works and a HOMELINK button where God intended it to be and a shifter that's not an insult. THAT's just for starters...

Alfred,
I think the 992.2 GT3 Touring will do very well in the future at least in the US market, which I assume the Swedish / European would be similar. The 992.2 GT3 might be one of the last real nice more analog sports cars. Even if they don't get phased out in the future (Euro 7, 2035 ban on ICE cars, etc) and production does increase in the later part of this decade, GT3s have generally held their value extremely well. The .2 Touring has a lot of nice unique features that were not available on previous versions either like the folding buckets and optional rear seats. I'd make sure you are okay with the way GT3 touring drives, some people get them and end up not liking them because they are just too harsh and have to sell them. A quick test drive usually isn't enough, a couple day rental gives you a much better idea.

Thank you for your answer!
I have a friend which had the 992.1 GT3 T and also the 991 Speedster and the ST, So I am fairly familiar with how it behaves, but I absolutely agree with your tip! The reason I want one is because of the engine, it is just something else!!

Porsche has watched Ferrari's fortunes soar and has adopted their production philosophy, which means limited production of sports cars to keep prices and exclusivity up (and the legend) while putting out as many SUV's as they can build. Rolex has done the same thing with their Sports watches. Create demand by limiting supply and it works as long as there are consumers willing to play that game.

Increasing number of consumers wanting to play that game.
My last 911 was 2012 c2s my latest was 50 k more expensive and thats not an s. Factoring in inflation the actual cost in 2025 dollars vs 2012 dollars the car is 23k more than the inflation factored price. Someone is making money
