I think that the narrative around original paint and no mods is the natural transition of these cars becoming more collectible and becoming modern classics.
As more investors start to consider the 997 GT cars things will shift towards identifying the cream puff cars.
That being said, one thing that I’ve really enjoyed about the 997 forum is that people seem generally more interested in modding, DIY and driving than the extended leather and deviated stitching debate of newer models.
I admit I was also worried about my 997 not having a leather dash and PCCB’s… right up until I drove my car and now I could care less. The driving experience is so good I can’t be bothered by how much leather is in the car and whether it has every ‘perfect’ spec sheet.
Pic 136 has the paint meter in the wrong measurement, so it looks off
Decent peppering below the shark fin PPF on the rear quarter (expected)
Surprised to see such a difference in paint meter readings (2.5) between pics 124-125 on the same door. I’ve noticed bottoms of doors can have lower readings, but wouldn’t expect that much although some of that could simply be how he was holding the paint meter
Would like to have seen some better pics to really dig in to things
What do you all think about the DME report? Are all the 1s in range 5 and 6 from a possible early recognized miss shift?

no, they are false recordings and should be dismissed. It’s physically impossible to have one ignition in all those ranges. Range 1 is the only real one and at only 29, is not indicative of anything worth worrying about.

Lots of Rennlisters getting new GT3s the last two weeks. This is phenomenal. Congrats to all of you.
ironically, you will all stay on this for sale thread even though you got your cars. It’s addicting, and also the most active forum for 997GT3 owners.
Eggzackly. I was on the thread since its inception and will continue to be.
When this is your favorite type of car, you continue to learn and watch and become an "expert" from just being an enthusiast, as I am/was....Its "my" sport.
Timing. it took me longer than I'd hoped. But it happened and I'm still stoked. Just drove it 2700 miles, finished Sunday, and its Tuesday and I just want to go for a drive...
Related to value, I dont' know if I overpaid or got a deal. What I do care about, is I finally found the right one.
Timing. Blessed for sure.....
