As most here know, selling my GT3 is something I regret all the time. Sure I love my Turbo and bought it since it has a back seat to drive my two little boys around. Lucky for them, I love them more than the GT3.
Congrats.....you won't regret it sir!

Dell, paint them yellow and slap some stickys & montons on the lads...then you'll love them even more!

Very sensible decision. I was going to chime in earlier but did not want to overstep my boundaries since I don't know your circumstances.

I keep repeating this, but it always comes up: EVERYBODY seems to say that the worst mistake they ever made was selling their 996 GT3. They will never make another car like this.

And imagine, being the original owner well, that can't be reproduced.

All of us regret selling their GT3. For whatever reasons we sold them, family in Dell's case. The boner I get from going fast in mine. There will never be another car like this and the money we spend on ours is a testimate to how much we love them or how insane the GT3 crowd is.

I didnt' say that, though it is common thought process in buying a vehicle.

just as others would avoid your car becasue of its mileage (considered a garage queen.....yes, as silly as it seems, some will allude that that higher mileage vehicles might be a safer option)

I understand you may not prefer a 997 3, but many would, I believe you're biased as to what you currently own

and yes, the market will determine if you're priced right or not. simple enough? sure. but if it matters not if you sell it or not, why list it?

surely it makes no difference to me. I lost patience looking for a GT3, so I'm outta the market unless, I can steal one

Dude - just give it a break. I'm sure you'll find one you can steal at some point. In the mean time let people sell what they have and if you don't agree with their price than go tell somebody who cares. I'm sure the 996GT3 forum, which you happened to post in probably would disagree with you.

Anyways, it's all moot, since Craig decided it to keep the car.

Gentlemen, just a reminder, posting in another member's for sale thread negative and irrelevant comments is impolite and not an accepted Rennlist manner. Such posts may be deleted.

Thanks.

PS. If anyone asks I haven’t read the whole thread just this last page..
