Hello 993 peeps:

I'm looking to get into a 993 C2S. Has to be manual and can't be red. All other options are considered. I thought I would throw this out there just incase one of you guys might be wanting to jump into a mint GT3. I'm also open to buying so if you're looking to sell one please PM me.

For trade with a 993C2S

2005 996 GT3 7K miles in mint condition
Artic Silver over black leather

Let me know if one of you 993 guys are interested.

Send me a PM of your email for more detailed and upclose pics. Won't let me upload pics right now


Thanks!

I might be able to be convinced to trade my C4S for your 4.0

GLWT, you'll enjoy the C2S.

There's a '04 996 GT3 with 13K miles in the classifieds asking $75K, so unless you're planning on offering your GT3 and some cash as well, it could pose a challenge to find a nice 1998 C2S for a straight up trade, unless you are open to a high mileage example.

Good luck on your search

I messaged the guy as to why he's so low and it's not that clean of a car. Frankly, I don't think he priced it right if it is a clean car. He just joined Rennlist so I don't think he is following the Porsche market like we do. If you read the thread people are questioning the add because it's too low. If you follow the GT3 market you'll know 75k is way too low for that car. Somethings fishy. Plus, there have been many 996 GT3s that have sold for more in the last 6 months. I put a mint 05 GT3 with 7K miles at 85-90K. I'm also open to mileage as you put it.

Just so it's clear I'm looking to trade for a 993 worth roughly 85-90K. Straight up.

Are you saying the seller responded to your message? Is it you that
says "it's not that clean a car", or is that how the seller described it? Sure looks clean to me.

DK964T

Yes. I asked why it was priced well below market and he said it had dings and scratches. The market is not that guys car. You can ask the 996 GT3 guys what the market is. That guys car is well below market for a reason. I don't want to get in a debate about a 996 GT3 on a 993 forum. Again, if anyone is interested in trading a 993 worth 85-90K straight up for a mint 05 GT3 7K miles let me know.

$85-90k is frankly conservative for a mint 996 GT3 with 7k.

Yes, I'm biased, but I'm also well informed.

Sounds like a pretty good deal. Not many low mile virgin GT3s around. Not many 05s either.

It's a GT3 guys.

Wow, interesting trade proposal. Will be fun to follow this thread - GLWT

True, but I would imagine there aren't a lot of cross shoppers when it comes to a '98 C2S and a '05 GT3.

Both great cars, but very different in almost every respect.

You and I tend to agree on many things here (what's THAT worth? ), but I'll respectfully disagree with you here Mr. G.

An 11 year old GT3 with low miles and "minty" will, I believe, be attractive to a similar Porschephile. The GT3 was (still is) an incredible car outright as well as significant in Porsche history. The 996 version, much like our beloved 993s, was free from all electronic nannies except for ABS. And to this day it maintains very "modern" levels of performance.

I'd even go as far to say that in the coming years a deal such as this might be considered a smart move.

Put it another way, if non-track-***** 996 GT3s were available for a reasonable price I'd have one to sit beside ONE of my 993s.

OK Tim, you've convinced me. Wanna go in half-sies with me?

If you go back to that add you will see it's been determined as phony and it needs to be pulled. Trade proposal is still open and anyone wanting to trade an 85-95K 993 C2S or C4S I'm open. That is a conservative number for a 7K miles 05 GT3. Only 96 2005 GT3's were made. PM me if anyone is interested in discussing trade possibilities Thanks
