The cost, looks and features of the 997tt will be the factors that determine 996tt values.
Right now, I'm disappointed in the 997tt styling and weight, and curious about pricing. If the pricing is high (high 120"s), I think the value of low-mile 996tt's will rise, and the overall depreciation curve will flatten.AS

1. Used 997S
2. Used 996tt

I wish I could decide between the two, but hell since I'll never be able to afford a new 911 turbo this might be my chance to get into one!

I would suggest doing a search for 'rear main seal' before you finalize your purchase.
The 996TT M64 GT1 dervied engine has a long history for its reliability.

Overproduced compared to what?

Cayennes? No, they produce a LOT more of those pigs.
993TT? Yes.

The 996TT will be in my garage until the 998TT or something italian..... I would have to mod the 997TT to even equal my car's performance... already spent the dollars... This baby will be around for a while..
