But speed yellow? Isn't that worth an extra 100 grand?

since is local, drive it, look at the oil, look at the coolant, hook up the durametric cam deviations, fuel trims, hook up the manometer. As long as all this check up , there are no weir noises and it drives good, I would buy it at that price.

Basic colors with similar mileage going for 5k-20k more. The last prices for 996 GT3 in the USA are 163k, 114k, 115k, 125k, 116k, 96k, 100k, 140k, 110k.... I think this car would've brought at least 5-10k more in the US. I guess if you consider 93k to be the same as 100k then prices are pretty similar, yes.

Anyone else noticed that prices are NOT drifting up in the UK?
On almost every model page the prices for auctions in the UK are significantly lower than the US. Inflation? Supply chain issues? Are people in the UK smarter? Poorer? Richer? Do they have other things to buy? What gives?
I'd like every armchair expert's opinion please

$93K plus UK VAT is a lot more than $100K. And then you have the carbon tax. That car was about $130K USD apples-apples
Economic markets account for all of that “silently”

That is 93k USD not 100k.

So you're saying that prices are lower because they have higher taxes. I will accept that answer.

If there's a profitable arbitrage available the market will adjust and squeeze it out eventually. Not that unique opportunities don't present themselves, but on a large scale Free Markets work.

That’s some stellar work blowing up the engine in half a day. Did someone drain the oil, plug the AOS and pop a link on the IMS chain, then do a 5,000 rpm clutch drop launch? Ha! You did not. But you wanted to.
