I'm curious to hear opinions from GT3 buyers and sellers.

I have a black 997 GT3, 1400 miles, no options and no mods. But.

I have a garage full of "stuff."

So.

Would "you" (buyer or seller) consider it a better proposition to put the car on the market as it is, unmodified, or would you rather put in some or all of the following:

RS factory carbon fibre shell seats
DAS roll bar
HANS belts
fire-ex
Champion wheels
slotted rotors
GT2 rear sway
Sharkwerks pipe
Sharkwerks tips
... and ... factory passenger seat air-bag disable switch and LATCH bracket.

I guess I could set this up as a poll.

Open to advice.

 

My $0.02 is that perfomance bits are GREAT for the buyer but not so much for the seller. I would keep the car stock if you are going to sell and keep the bits for the next one or part them out.

Cheers

 

I'd sell the car as stock and part out the mods.

 

I would want it all.

 

Sell it stock, buy an RS.

 

Keep it stock, you'll get more money...sell parts to help offset cost of RS

 

Unless you find a buyer who is planning on buying the mods anyway, you'll probably make more on it parting out like others have said.

(I would at least want the seats and the sharkwerks exhaust/tips).

Where are you located? Aren't the factory CF shells going for like 10k over here in the states?

 

Sell the 3, get the RS and then put the parts back on

 

I think that's it in a nutshell. And the handful of enquiries on parts already suggests there's no shortage of suckers ... um ... buyers : ) ... for the goods.

 

Alex, Alex, Alex.

 

i would like all the parts,
but i want them NOT installed.
of course, as usual, i am NOT normal.

 

Sell em separately, you'll get more for parts unused

What model champions are you thinking of selling? I may be a buyer.

 

Well... I can't help it! Besides then you wouldn't "need" to put the LWF in because it'd be pre-installed....

 

18" RG5's in very good condition -- they clear the calipers for normal steel rotors not CCBs. It would be interesting to get advice on a fair price.

 

That's what I thought when I read the first post - it's the logical thing to do.
