well, there's the also joy of having/ enjoying a GT2! LOL

for sure, he'll need to make sure any repairs were done correctly. And the trick will be to determine what an appropriate reduction in value should be. As as been stated, all the more tricky with how few of these are sold / bought.

I guess the GT2’s aren’t going to get any cheaper.For a long while they were the last under valued Porsches..Doesn't really matter to me.The only investment a car is, your enjoyment! Go for a drive!

Ha! When I Googled "byers imports gt2" looking for the yellow one, the video of my car comes to the top of the results list.

Of course, I had to shamelessly watch it one more time - just to make sure I was "keeping that bad boy planted to the ground" :-)

I have heard good things about that dealer, and that guy John Wright. They seem to do a lot of GT cars. I could take a look at it for you if you want. Just set it up with him, and I will put my eyes on it, check out that corner that was repaired. Send me a PM if you are interested.

Also what mooty said
They insisted on a minimum two year note period before payoff or else a penalty on my loan.
Ask about early pay off if you must "out of curiosity" but don't raise a red flag.
I was kinda pissed.

I called on that car and was seriously interested until they gave me the offer on my 996GT2.
I wont be insulted.

Does anyone have pics of the car in damaged condition ?

This could be a sweet spot driver/investment if the damage wasn't too bad.

I cant justify 190K+ for a car that sits in the garage.
