Default Thinking of selling my 2011 black/gold GT3RS

There is a small chance that I might be able to get into a 4.0 if can sell my RS before the 4.0 is sold. Due to this possibility, I am thinking of selling my 2011 black/gold GT3RS. The vehicle is listed here:
https://rennlist.com/forums/vehicle-...ld-loaded.html

I will be taking some extra pictures soon and will post them here.

I actually have a BMW M5 with Dinan stroker - that car has not been dynoed but has somewhere between 611 and 650 hp with gobs of torque throughout. I used to think that I would drive the RS rarely because its just not daily driver material. I admit, I have not driven the M5 in weeks and rarely take it out these days forcing me to rack up 6500 miles on the rs in just 5-6 months (I got it in December while I was vacationing).

Anyway, it would be nice to get into the 4.0, although I keep asking myself what is it that I am missing in the RS that I will get with 4.0? Not really after the exclusivity, just driving pleasure.

148 may be a little high but good luck with the sale and getting the 4.0

Yup, I'm with ya ^^. Great car but has a lot of stuff I wouldn't need. Could be in the market at the right price though.

Thanks for the feedback. The dealership is willing to offer me 140K for the car (partly because I know they would like to sell it for 155K or thereabouts because of the options). I figured I'd give private sale a shot first hopefully saving someone some dough in sale price and sales tax. I just really rather have someone here who is an enthusiast benefit from the price rather than the dealership.

Can't see the dealer getting 155 either. If the dealer is offering 140, I'd jump on that and get in the 4.0!

Beautiful though. GLWS

Yup, Dell's right. That's a solid deal from the dealer. Love the avatar Dell!

Agree- 140 is good from a dealer.

140 is a steal from a dealer

140k for a 3.8RS on trade-in when the same dealer is tagging the 4.0RS $50k over sticker is not a good deal. It is the same as offering $90k on trade-in for the 3.8RS and selling the 4.0RS at MSRP, and the dealership is already making $25k on the 4.0RS at MSRP before other profits.

If that's the case Rad, then no wonder they are offering 140. Does that 4.0 price tag come with or without lube?
