Great spec except cornering lights and nose lift, but the rest is all good stuff.

I'd never pay over MSRP of the BASE car for a used car...It just went over $190K.. No go to me.
I could see a very rare color going over MSRP if it is sayless then 5K miles, but beyond that they will depreciate.

The 4.0 RS is "just a car"?

Garbage.

: )

The greed and folly of the speculators in any market are no reflection on the true value of the object they tarnish.

I'm running out of garage space too...unfortunately it's because I have a small garage and a lot of junk.
Congrats.

Thanks P. I wasn't expecting too much of a difference between the 997.2 RS 3.8 and the 4.0, but after driving both today, they are definitely different!

I want/need that silver GT3 RS. Gorgeous car. 4.0 is not bad either. Enjoy.

Hopefully you drag one of those hotrods up to Reno for my Trackrat event in Oct?

That black on silver RS is gorgeous. Congrats on the 4.0. Interesting garage setup you have, is that more of a storage unit or a garage in a larger building?

Yes, the black on the silver is great. Pictures really don't do the GT Silver Black combo justice, nor even the white 4.0. What's funny is that Porsche charged something like $7,000 for the "option" of black wheels, mirrors and wing tips! On the 4.0, the black wheels were just $350!?!. (Of course I let someone else pay for that 3.8 package!)

My garage is in a highrise in Las Vegas, so it is kind of a 3 1/2 car garage. I'm putting in a lift this Friday because I'm out of room!

Savy - I'm actually going to be on the east coast the weekend of your event!!

I was one of those bidding against you.

Does anyone know if this is the only 4.0 on the market right now?

I'm primarily looking for .2 3.8s, but I've been considering stretching for a 4.0. Have all of these been trading in the secondary market for over MSRP or have any been selling for under $200k / original list?


Quick Reply: Any 4.0's for sale?
