Default Looking to Buy 997.2 GT3

I am looking to buy a Yellow, Red or Mexico Blue 2010 or 2011 GT3. Looking for low mileage and well optioned car. Anyone have such a car they are or would consider selling, or know of such a car?

Thanks and cheers!

Henry

Contact Doug from switch cars. Pay him the fee that he charges and sit back and wait for the cars to come to you. Otherwise good luck. I spent about a year shopping on my own.

This was going to be my recommendation as well, although it always seems to be my recommendation. You will get a better well sorted car with less stress and headaches.

If I remember correctly you're in Ohio as well? I think you mentioned that you had a shop fix the outward dents on the rear fenders of a 997... I'm looking for contact info for a shop that has already done that work before. Could you please PM me?

Thanks!

Doug might still have a lead on a 997 GT3 in SY, you should reach out to him ASAP.

Yes. I saw that. Thank you! I actually contacted the dealership yesterday. It appears to be very nice and well optioned, though it does have some miles.

I may have a deal pending on a different car. I am pretty excited. Stay tuned.
