Trying to find out recent 07-08' GT3 auction prices. In the market, but trying to see what type of price range they are selling at auction for. I'd like to see what the delta is between, private or retail sales price to whole sale to see if it makes sense given you can't do much research on the cars as they go up for auction.
Having not been to the auctions before, i'm assuming you don't get the chance to
learn much about the car before bidding? How much can your realistically do before buying a car from an auction? I guess my concern on this type of car would be how it was treated. If it was an accord, chances are a basic check is good. On a GT3, how comfortable would you be buying from an auction?

I've wondered the same thing.... If they would let me plug-in and read the DME with my Durametric + laptop before hand, I'd be willing to bid at auction...

Problem with GT3s is maintenance - or lack there of... Some have been driven hard and put away wet, and other haven't.... Tough to tell without a thorough PPI.

Obviously not many make it to the auction.

 

I was going to add...on a car like a GT3 you 1) can't count on even finding them at auction and 2) can't use that as a good pricing guide because there are soo few examples that actually make it there AND 3) the ones that are at auction you don't want.

There's so little info available on them via Manheim they don't even have good MMR's for them PowerSearch currently shows 1 '07 in PA available right now via OVE

 

The pricing from auction is helpful and answered my exact question. That is the difference between the one's private or dealerships sell vs. auction prices. It shows there isn't much difference and not much mark-up. But for the few $$$k difference in price on a $70k+ GT3 you can have piece of mind as to condition. Thanks for the prices mpilot!

not a single green RS listed... confirms my feeling that those are just so hard to find... if i ever found a pristine green RS w/low miles, not sure i would be able to control myself... like so many others, i am sure...

 

yup



be careful at auctions and keep an eye on the P dealers buyer. If he's shying away from a particular car you should too.

Mass volume cars, like chevys, honda, etc are ok, but NFW for low volume cars especially one that gets tracked, like a GT3.

 

You are saving the wrong dollar.. Way too much risk.. Don't even think about it..

 

just for kicks, what about 996 gt3's?

 

Really nothing

An 04 sold on 8/29/12 for $56,980

 

was it yellow with 35k miles?
