Same advice here.

Picture taken today. I was going to sell it to a friend of a friend for $120k. Is that stupid low?

I have probably 8 extra sets of wheels too. Two sets of OEM and a bunch of OZ and a couple sets of Forgelines.

For an autocross (not track) car, does that sound reasonable or am I a chump?








Vinyl wrap has a bubble

not that there’s anything wrong with it but this car shows all the typical signs of track use, not auto cross. Your past posts also have many references about meeting at tracks including COTA. You sure this wasn’t your track car? Still worth way more than 120k.

Autocross. 8 sets of extra wheels. Tire boogers from leading cars everywhere. Hilarious.

Nevertheless, probably worth $140-150 as it sits, $150-160 assuming the film comes off and the seller breaks out a vacuum cleaner and razor blade.

Hey guys, I personally did maybe three track events with it?

We generally used the GTR on track and we have a 991 GT3 as well.

Mainly I enjoyed club racing with an S2000 because disposable.

The story behind the wheels is that I bought the car from Andy Hollis to run in Super Street back in 2013-15. He sold it to me with 2 sets of OEM wheels and a pile of 19” OZs.

But then Super Street came out with new rules that allowed -1” wheels and the hot street tire rubber only came in 18”s for that width.

So I had a few sets of Forgelines made for 18”.

then in 2015 we competed with a 991.1 GT3 and then in 2018 with a 991.2 so the car hasn’t been used much since that time.

It’s still the most glorious, musical sounding car I’ve ever driven.

It has rear seats that were installed at the dealership so it’s actually fairly practical.








I was just seeing if someone wanted to give it a good home with the least amount of hassle to me.

I suppose I could just pay to get it cleaned up and do it the old fashioned way. But if someone was going to autocross it and wanted to basically set it up this way as a bonus, then it would have been a win-win.

Autocross setups have a lot less rear toe in and I wouldn’t use the same setup on track.

Track is for track and I prefer to race when I’m on track!

Also, what I think you guys think are track boogers… are from driving it on the street lol.







The car I spent most time on track with

Our 991.1 GT3 that replaced the 997 for autocross

The 991.2 GT3 that replaced the 991.1 for autocross

Oh man, never seen a 7.2 with rear seats. I thought the mounting points weren’t there.

I sent you a PM with my cell. PLEASE shoot me a text with some photos. Seems crazy the dealer put them in with the buckets!

Daughter loves the car.

Rear back seats are why I’ve kept it all these years. Hasn’t seen any sporting use in probably 7 years. Was stored in climate controlled storage most of the time.

OK. I'll be Safety Sally here.

GT3 sport buckets and other hard-back 911 seats are NOT designed to protect rear seat passengers in a frontal impact. They will rearrange your back seat passenger's face bones.

CKit - agree with above.

Many on here will buy that car - especially if it’s below market…

And not sure about your ‘friend’ who is willing to take advantage of you…

At least the buckets on the 997s are hinged unlike the darn 991 buckets in our other car, lol!

As a side note but semi-related…

The passenger side front seat comes out with 4 torx bolts so that’s how we roll.

Also helps keep the passenger seat far away from little grubby feet too. 😁




I have the passenger seat safely wrapped and tucked away in basement.

Thanks for showing... But I do feel like your trolling this channel a bit by asking if a 20k mile LWBS/PCCB/FAL/CARBON spec $150k msrp no accident GT3 is worth more than $120k. We know you tracked it, we know you AX and we know its been in an automated car wash... imo don't be baited into defending yourself.

If your serious I would spend $2500 to clean it up and present it for sale... or if you want us to tell you to keep it as a family sedan, I think that's pretty creative.

This whole thing feels bizarre. His friend wants to buy it for 120k but instead he’s looking for a quick sale to a stranger on here at the same price?
