These don't seem to get the love of other GT cars or is it just me...even with the pandemic spikes, these seem a relative "value" and haven't gone bonkers on price. Will that ever happen or are they just a stepchild of sorts in this world? Asking because I just don't know but it seems the same happened with earlier generations of the GT2s.
Can someone chime in on what are the rarest non-pts colors of the 997.1 GT2 ? don't know that I have seen much outside of black or silver and occasional red.

Even with the pandemic pricing sending GT3RS prices to the moon in many cases, the amazing GT2 continues to soldier along at a relative bargain indeed. These cars are so much more special than most people think.

If I ever get my new garage built - I’ll be shopping for GT2

Just a few years ago, a nice .1RS typically went for around $40k less than a comparable GT2. Today, just look what’s going on with the former:
https://bringatrailer.com/listing/20...che-gt3-rs-33/
Like the stock market then vs now, this kinda makes me wish I bought that pumpkin .1RS sitting next to my future GT2 at the dealer a few years ago. If I did though, I would not have had as much enjoyment as I have had so far. Different strokes…..cars should only be an investment in fun….and all that.
But since this is a value thread, maybe best to put it like this: The GT3RS is almost like its own brand, like “Prius”. So much better known to the motoring public. I have had to on several occasions explain to “car guys” what a GT2 was. Of course everyone knows what a GT3 is. And so, back to stock market analogy, maybe whats happening with the .1RS today is akin to a 90 P/E robinhood tech stock, and the GT2 more like a dividend paying value stock.
You have chosen wisely!
Congrats & post up some pics on the GT2 photo thread

Maybe its the turbo nature of the GT2 compared to the screamer GT3? Turbo cars are absolutely everywhere these days but its rare to find an N/A & manual. Either way, you win with both cars.

Anybody fancy the last manual GT2 and one of the last manual RS cars ever made? Also one of the last Mezger engine road cars ever produced. Number 500/500 GT2 RS with only 378 miles on the odometer.

"Regular" GT2 inventory has completely dried up, but this white one was just listed Grand Prix in Portland.
Sport Seats and ~7k miles, and interior trim painted white.

I just texted with someone at Grand Prix. The car is en route to them now. They will be asking $351K. I made him confirm that was US currency... lol

My first response was to LOL then I realized what cars have been selling for...and thought better of it.

Was this car seriously on the market days ago for $179k? Great price if true and would've been worth adding another GT2 in the garage! Imagine being the previous seller knowing they are turning it around and adding 170k to the price!
