$50k is fine. It is the $90k+ range that things are getting a little over heated.

They're smoking some good stuff over there! Hahah That's GT2 money on the low end of the GT2 market.

It's funny how it works. Instead of appreciating that our cars go up in value and be happy if they sell at whatever price in the upper range, people start to make fun of them.

I hope they get 90k> for that gem of a Turbo. That's a fairly normal price for these cars in Europe right now.

I will probably never sell mine, but this is fun to watch and I'm happy that our "ugly duckling" is starting to get the attention it deserves.

I do not think you can get a 996 GT2 for under $100k these days.

No, you can't. Unless it's a higher mileage one with some kind of history.

Yeah 100K is definitely on the low end, but there's a few out there for sure.

You're right, that seems to be the case with many of the lower priced ones. But "high mileage" on those seem to be near 50,000 miles. Which is still really low for cars of that age and such a stout engine! Plus, it means they were actually driven and enjoyed which isn't such a bad thing.

No kidding! That is a hell of a spread there! Sounds like the Cable company. We'll be out there sometime between 8am and next February!

I really don't understand it either! Even if you've got a great car collection and little time to drive them, I still wouldn't be able to put that few of miles on any car I own. I mean, that's not even a tank of gas!

Some people like cars as sculpture.

ha! agree. i can envision a thousand years hence, when that 193 mile specimen is unearthed, and the carchaeologist's gather *round* it and marvel at the forward thinking design of *our* headlamps.

pass the bong. on second thought. nah. i probably don't need it. lol.
