Other than Googling over and over, I am hoping someone can perhaps point me to one place to compare specs for the various 997 GT3 models.

Thanks!

No such thing as a 2009. Use search on these forums.

Wiki has your answers: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Porsche_911_GT3#997_GT3

If you mean a .1 (07-08) and a .2 (10-11) here are some quick performance differences:

Better aero
Better suspension
3.6L (.1) vs 3.8L (.2)
No PSM (.1), PSM (.2)

Feel free to jump in to add or correct me guys

10 GT3

.2 has PDEM and Sport Bucket options.
.1 has sunroofs, .2 does not.
.2 has larger front brakes, same size as .1/.2 PCCBs.

Thanks guys.

Looks like I will put my efforts in to looking for a 997.2 GT3 now.

$30-40k delta

LVDell

For what delta? .1 to .2 GT3?

Pricing delta is more like 15-20K for non RS .1 to non RS .2

As me how I know.

P.J.S.

I haven't seen any good .1 gt3 for less than 70 and only one .2 listed under 100

LVDell

I'm talking same for same. A .1 low miles, garage queen is commanding 80-85 (most good examples in the mid to high 70's with the fair examples in the low 70s) while the .2 is commanding high 90s and up.

There was a .2 recently (last week I think) listed here for 100K (105 on Cars.com) and it was a low mile garage queen. So, same for same, the 15-20 (more realistically 20K) is the delta between same for same. Not anywhere close to 30-40K. That's pushing into .2RS territory.

P.J.S.

80-85 for clean .1GT3 with low miles (<10K) -- is that a reality?
if so WOW... the market is stronger than I thought...
I trust that you are correct but I am surprised

I did not think that these actually sold in the 80s still - stock etc.

As of late, my observation is that the .2 RS is roughly $130K+, .2 GT3 is roughly $100K+, .1RS is roughly $90K and the .1GT3 is roughly $70-75K

so maybe a 30-40K delta is too much... but from where I sit, it is at least $25K

I am splitting hairs to some degree -- I am not selling or buying so I will pipe down

Just watching recent transactions and seeing the pricing actually rising a tick since the winter. Maybe it's the GT1 motor, maybe it's the numbers of buyers relative to very little supply.

I think we are very close on the numbers if not nearly the same. THere is just much more "range" in the .1 non RS since it is the older of the the options and there seems to be more variation in condition and miles.

.1 low 70's to low 80s depending on condition
.1RS typically in the 90-100K range in good condition with realtively low miles
.2 typically hovering at the 100K mark
.2RS at 130K and up.

I'm not selling nor buying either, so I'll pipe down as well

I wasn't buying or selling either until I read posts like this and starts me thinking about how little it would take upgrade. And then I get into the argument about buying a .2 non-RS vs a .1 RS and it makes my head hurt all over again.

I think I'll keep what I have for a while.

3.8 RS appreciated in the last 8 months (the 4.0RS might have helped).

Average sale prices:

997.1 GT3 $75k
997.1 GT3 RS $95k
997.2 GT3 $95k
997.2 GT3 RS 3.8 $125k
997.2 GT3 RS 4.0 $210k

Prices go up or down from average depending on mileage and conditions. Delta between .1 and .2 just $20k, delta between .2 and 2.RS $30k.

A few months ago the 3.8RS was the best value (most car for the money), some were moving below $115k. Currently, the best value is the .2 GT3.

The biggest variation is in the 4.0RS that can go in between $185k and $235k depending on the seller.

Who wants a bone stock 42,000 miles 2007 Cayman S with a year left on warranty?

$95k is exactly what I picked my .2 GT3 up for 2.5 months ago. Sadly, I thought I was getting a deal.
