Does anyone have any idea how much (%) more a Gemballa 996 Turbo would fetch compared to an equivalent 'regular' 996 Turbo?

Thanks.

depends on the buyer...to me it would bring negative equity to the table...I'm a fan of factory stock vehicles, not modified.

This should have been posted in the Turbo section, my apologies. If a mod would please move that would be great.

I would have a tendency to agree, and in most cases this actually holds true. However, certain high-end tuners, Gemballa being one of them, in many cases do command a premium. The question is, how much?

OKB

depends on how much gemballa, some are just bumper, wheels, some are full in and out factory conversions. if full it could cost $100k more

That is one expensive-to-replicate turbo.

Ha...it really is nice, isn't it? Would love to know more about the upgrades. Very little info other than motor and interior. Hood appears to be carbon fiber. Nice car.

Really have no idea what that upgrade package could add to the price of a mint, stock, 8300mi, '02 996TT?

Wouldn't be surprised if Gemballa work was $30k++ above the $130k list price. Starting with factory carbon package, deviated stitching on a speed yellow twin turbo... for the right buyer I can see the Gemballa stuff adding value, it sure does look like the target of a badass-speedYellow-sitDownShutUp style. Question is how many people are in the market for it. I wouldn't be surprised if it sells within 20% of a stock, low mile car. So high 5 digits?

/stupid wild **** guessing

edit:

had this as a kid

Extremely well done car. I'm going to guess over $100k... If it's less than that, someones getting a very sweet deal.

That is a very nice car!

Corso

Agreed, very well done. I'm guessing right around 6-figs as well.

Using this car for comparison purposes as to the basis for my question; should the Gemballa sell for $100,000 +/-, then that is quite a lofty premium indeed.

you have to see all those papers to see what was done. it has a pretty complete body kit, wheels,
floor mats,haha. twin turbo upgrade? maybe ecu? maybe 20-30 for the body, 15-25 for the motor? evo motorsport receipt, hendricks receipts, probably all the work done in the us
maybe 10k up value

I'm not sure I'd pay a dime over market for it.

Then the question becomes, what's the market $# ? I'm sure there are many that feel the same as you do. My view is that it's a very clean low mileage example of what amounts to a very rare (maybe even a one off) vehicle. Obviously it's not everyone's cup o' tea, but that doesn't devalue it, just shrinks the buyer pool.
