2007 GT3 dealer trade
I have my new RS coming in and my dealer offered $70,000 trade on my current 2007 GT3 (only 7,000 miles!!!) in Guards Red. Seems light but with the tax credit on the new car it ends up at $75,600. I installed several items which I would remove and sell separately to bring the car back to stock and to gain some of the loss $$, easiest thing would be to sell the car with all items installed and call it a day. Best thing would be NOT SELL THE CAR since I absolutely love it and figure out why I really want the new RS that looks like a clown car anyway.
They are:
- GT2 Carbon Seats
- Carbon Fiber mirrors
- Carbon Fiber rear wing
- Carbon Fiber hood vent
- Carbon Fiber rear gurney
- Farnbacher Exhaust (and ECU flash)
- Powder coated wheels with new Pilot sport tires (300 miles)
- Roll bar
Here are my options:
- Find a rennlister that wants a properly set-up and not abused track car and sell it with all the goodies.
- Sell off the removable items separately and trade the car back to my dealer
If you have any interest in either please PM me and we can discuss details. thanks

what make is the roll bar?
how much for the full package to rennlisters?
If the car ends up being traded in, definitely pull the exhaust, wing and seats! (assuming you still have stock parts)
I lover the wheel color and the car looks super clean.

It is the factory option GT3 bar from Germany, as most of you know you cannot even get this bar anymore so it's "pricelist".
Honestly I do not want to piece-meal this and would prefer selling the car as is or all options together.
Total car $89,000
Options listed $12,000 BUT....
- I would need a set of stock wheels/tires in exchange (could be balled tires for all I care)
- I would need a set of stock seats (I did sell my stock seats like a dumbass)
This car is a deal at $89,000 and not reproducible at that price. No paint, no damge, no stories.....

the seats pictured are 996 GT3 Clubsport seats. Unless you have GT2 seats, I personally would keep these in the car as they are worth about the same as stock seats in used market anyhow so no need to swap em', however the exhaust and rear carbon wing should be pulled and back to stock. You can sell those items separately for a little extra cash vs. giving it to trade-in.
The wheels are fine and look great. No need to swap em. I really dig the look.
the carbon bits on the car might as well stay on for what it is worth to swap em'.
i suspect it will be easier to sell through dealer especially if they CPO, than private sale unless a R-Lister chimes in for this great example of a 3.......
at todays market on used 997GT3's, the trade-in is decent with tax credit, as the dealer will have to sit and find a buyer for a small profit which is the norm.
But that being said, with new tires and being a PCCB car they should either up the trade-in a little more or at least give you a sticker price on new RS.
