The 997 GT3/RS Cars For Sale Thread...

I never understood the notion that a collector car that's going to sit in a garage or museum needs to be low mileage. If it's in pretty condition and just gonna sit there for decades to be stared at, why give a flying f*&k how many miles are on it? I think a "retired" car with 400k miles on it is better suited for that. When looking at old museum race cars, how many do you think walk past it and say, wow, that GT40 is beautiful, just a shame that it was tracked and has over 12k miles on it? Honey, put the camera away for that one.

Collectible and classic are not the same thing
There are $100k long hood 911Ss with 140k miles.
mileage and collectible are not mutually exclusive... also different types of collectible... ones with history or cool story usually immune to mileage...or at least offset. no history but bubble-car, dealer-lot mileage is another kind.. higher production numbers? mileage matters.. lower production numbers? mileage matters less.... newer car? mileage matters. older car? mileage matters less. horses for courses.

I love the 7.2RS so, so much. Best cars ever ((but only if you drive them)!

For resale purposes. Because when that collector decides he can sell that super low mileage car for a nice profit, another collector just like him will want that same super low mileage car and will pay extra for it, so he can make a profit down the road.
