The 997 GT3/RS Cars For Sale Thread...
#2791
So the fact the .2 has double the miles with mods pointing to the car being tracked and yet sold for $6k more is proving your point? I would argue it’s the other way. What would a 14k mile .2 go for? Quite a bit more than $135k I would think

More than other colors, but depends on the history, options and original msrp, and miles. Somewhere between $140k-$170k depending. But would still prefer .2 green PTS RS over the .1; even if more money of course. Would be a keeper and will depreciate like a rock because I’ll really drive it, but that’s okay. Already put 10.5k miles in 11 months on the Touring (only driven on weekends), but it’s been really fun.

Those were common mods on a GT3 car (including coolant lines) considered valuable and desirable — certainly added value to the car. Judging from the clean DME, if that RS was tracked at all, then it was babied at worst. 31k miles is low for a 9yr old car. Driven, well maintained GT cars usually have much less problems than queens drying out in garages. $135k was a surprisingly low comp for a clean, no-overrev .2 RS suggesting a weakening RS market overall.

An example of just trying to justify what they own is a better value than another variant.
Scared money.

FWIW there are only three green 997.2 RS, one Signal Green, two RS Green, and I have the history on all of them.

If you REALLY want a PTS .2 RS, hire me to get it for you. I have every PTS car in my database and know where most of them are and/or have been. PS I don't work for free and I don't give free help to people who want to attempt to do it on their own.

Really? Yes tell me why I bought the car I did. The one I bought not only has higher miles based on the other cars and it’s not a secret it’s been tracked. If I was so worried about the value dropping? Why would I put 1000 miles in 2 weeks on her? Nice try👍🏻 You can try to look at your crystal ball all you want. I’m just gonna drive the car and enjoy every minute

I may be I oversimplifying, but who cares. Buy it at a fair price then drive the hell out of it for years or preferably decades. If you want to make an investment, put money into your own company, buy stocks, bonds or real estate.
