That's about right from what I've read. 80/20 for PDK and Manual. Here is one resource that I've seen and managed to save:

Now, the bigger question for those in the US, is how many made it over here? Assuming these production numbers are right, and you're looking for one in the US, then those numbers go down substantially more.

I like to use high mileage cars as a barometer of the market. The reason being, that these are typically the lowest price with the highest depreciation.

It seems that over the past 3 months, high mileage 997's, even with the tiptronic are being listed for $7-10k more on average than they were 6 months ago. Around this time last year, you could find a handful of base Carrera 997.1, cabriolet, tiptronics with high miles for under $30k. I specifically picked what is considered the least desirable offering for the 997. I always look at what the most inexpensive option for the car is, just to get a barometer of what a theoretical bottom price could be.

That said, I haven't seen a single high mileage, 997.1S with a manual for less than $40k these days. Where as a year ago in the major markets, there were typically many to pick from, today, you might find just a handful for sale at all.

This is going to be interesting to watch. I can honestly say that I have no idea what my car would command in value today.

Good point---anyone know what percentage of 997.2's made it to the USA???

This link is to all US sales of 911's, so it will get you partway there: https://www.goodcarbadcar.net/porsch...sales-figures/

Those sales numbers line up close with actuals, from what I know in the industry and working with PCNA.
