As I am sure everyone would, given no consideration for money. However as with everything, there is a price at which something barely preowned will seem like a good deal relative to buying the same thing brand new.

Honestly I think the gt2rs is pretty lame, or at the very least it is a terrible value. An over boosted 911, the same old stuff repackaged yet again. Say what you will about the f-cars, but they do spend the money on r&d to move the ball forward. Their new models truly are "new".

It depends. But as you put it, do not be surprised if the offers are low-balling.

just fly to italy, show up at factory door in maranello and tell them, "458, i want it, i'll take the next one going out the door." GLWS sq! i hope to read an equally entertaining post on the f-car.

1. market for the RS with 600 miles is 15 to 20back. I just sold mine with about 2 x those miles. just wasnt using it and really enjoying the cup car and boxster S racer. so i unloaded mine. thats the market. and thankfully its not less because there are some out there.
2. gt2 RS - you know, part of me hated reading superq's analysis of it. after all, its a gt2...it has the words "RS" on it. thing is going to be blistering fast, but you know, i kind of remember of the same hype around the 997.1 GT2(non-RS). and while yes, it was a terrific car, it was, atleast to me a slightly faster turbo. no more. i so much loved my 997.1 GT3RS more than the gt2. and of course the 997.2 RS is insanity for a porsche track or spirited road driver. but 300k for a porsche? not a cgt?
i mean, come on, thats just raping your customers. for 320,340 you can get a low mile, prefect CGT and frankly, i dont care how great a GT2RS might be, a CGT is cats meow and then some. so i hated reading the words, but part of me sort of agrees entirely.

I dont think that is reasonable to say that you wont see any offers highr than 130k. I do think that the prices will be steadily dropping but right now the market will still bear 135-140k. I would be in line for one at that price and I am sure that others would as well.

I followed the "purchase" thread and I'm also surprised your selling so soon. Fair enough the car may have not reached your expectations but you don't deserve to loose big money. Would be cool to find and the "F" car you desire that has low mileage like yours and has also been hit by depreciation so the hit is not as hard on part-ex. (or you may even come out on top).
Good luck.
We all spurred you on, now its only fair to try and give you some positive advice!!!!

I guess my main nit is that I was perhaps expecting something a bit more different and new from the 996GT3 that I owned a few years ago (which I drove daily for 3 years). The RS is a lot more car but it feels like my old car with some things turned up and a nicer interior. It's all a little familiar to me and as you can imagine the comparative attraction of a new fcar (458) is a real itch that beckons to be scratched ...
To be continued later this month when I return from some travels (in Italy ironically)
In the meantime if there are interested serious parties (especially in the northeast region) please PM for further discussion.

I think the GT2 RS is cool and I'm sure it is devastatingly fast but it represents terrible value. Many people who can afford $240-$300K (Canada) for a car still look for value.
