That is why I can't bring myself to sell the RS I'll wait til F430s fall further and I will get one to go with my RS

That's pretty much the car I described in the thread "if you could order a new 993 today": https://rennlist.com/forums/6126844-post3.html

What a stunning freaking car. If I saw one, it would make me almost as nuts as if I saw Miranda, Alessandra and Marisa coming up to me on the beach, asking if I wanted to party.

If you see those girls on the beach I think you should buy two of them something to eat. I think the GT2 in my front driveway is more likely but not by much.

For a weekend I'll take the girls but for a lifetime I'll take the car!

I never dated a super model, but I will say that girls like photographers. Realtors, however, not so much.

Back to your regularly scheduled programming.

I'm with Cactus...

That car is 12 years old - in another 20 years, it'll still look as sexy. Those girls, 20 years from now.....

Yeah, but in 20 years, you'll look like Methuselah, and you'll have three multi-millionaire girlfriends who will still be 1,000 times out of your league (and mine) when they're 45 years old!

Absolutely stunning. Unlikely I'll get one of my own, but I could always mimic. Beautiful images of cars like that keep me on the fence between the GT2 and the RS wing.

Looks like a great example, but the seller is asking "time capsule" pricing (even with the pound at dismally low value to the Euro) and its been modified, so it's not a factory correct car any more. Not that I'd kick it out of bed, so to speak, but I'm guessing this is car that will go to a driver for close to half the asking price. I don't see it appealing to a collector or "money no object" buyer unless there's some bigger picture of race history, provenance, etc. Again, a gorgeous car, but I wonder if the price is in the market.

what is the going rate these days for a stock GT2 (left hand drive) in a more standard color e.g. silver , lets assume 30k miles.
Ive seen some crazy asking prices, but what is the realistic price at this time?

Rob, have a look here; www.germansportscars.de go to the porsche section.

The blue car is nice, certainly pulls very well,,I had the opportunity to buy it from the previous owner at a very good price, but passed as I prefer the narrow bodied normally aspirated lightweights...each to their own!

That is one beautiful 993, but at the current exchange rate, it still comes out to $291,818 USD which seems high.
