Thanks for the info. I thought the numbers would be more common like our 997s. A member recently did a test on his 997 and registered 1,2&3 just by hitting the rev limiter in 1st.

When you stand on it in these cars, they rev very fast!
I'm not surprised to see that. In my former FBO 997 turbo, it would record range 3s hitting the limiter in 3rd gear. I never intentionally tried it in 1st gear, but I wouldn't be surprised if it hit range 4 or even 5. The limiter comes really quick in first gear of a modded 997 turbo

@southbay
Range 1 over-revs for 997 GT3 are 9000-9200 rpm (600-800 rpm beyond the already high 8400 rpm rev limiter). People see a 997 GT3 with no over revs and lament how it was never "driven properly", then see a 997 Turbo with range 3s (7200-7400 rpm which is 400-600rpm above the 6800 rpm rev limiter) and declare it an abused track rat that will without a doubt self destruct at any moment....

This auction just finished. Pretty exciting. I watched the last 20 minutes during lunch. Started the morning around $43k and finished at $59k. I thought it might just reach $60k. Quite the premium for a 997.1. A lot of time extensions from bids sub 2 minutes.
32k Mile 2008 997.1 C2S Manual Coupe. Meteor Gray. Black interior. Looked great.

The posts on auction are priceless! Big Swole and Linderpat I think my comment will come true, won’t hit reserve and tinroof will be the winner!

Did not hit reserve. Final bid was $166,000. Lackluster turnout.

That was a pretty anemic auction, but it worked out OK for me since I was the low guess at $179,000. My first win.
Here is a nice looking Arctic Silver 2006 997.1 S cab with six speed trans, some nice seats, and only 35k miles:

I'll guess $37,500
