I can only speak for myself… but your making the right move, as much as I love my GT3 if it was it or good down payment on my vacation home to spend with my kids it would be a no brainer. I bought the home first, so I’m confident you’ll be back into one again some day

hmm that’s a good price/spec to turn into a track car…says original owner… this seems like a trick

Im happy you were not in the car at the time and no one injured. Also, I can infer you had a great meal with the Mrs. That’s really all that matters. Spending time with ones you cherish and love.

I suspect whilst parked along a thoroughfare? If so, that’s unfortunate. My Wife and I witnessed a lady in a classic 280 rear end a parked car in Santa Barbara. Middle of the day with no medical issues. Sad event for the SUV and couple that came out of a local bakery…. We have vowed to not park alongside busy streets and try parking lots for that reason. Almost as if we saw it as an example.

I hope you get the RS you want. Unfortunate time to be in a loss and looking nearly at the same time for a replacement.

Continue to keep the chin-up!

I wish ads with minimal info did keep the kickers at bay. But as one that has listed vehicles on multiple platforms, it does quite the opposite. That was back in my early 20’s. Lessened learned. Now that I’m a bit older, I realized that an add that is descriptive and answer the top 5-10 questions in that ad attracts those mostly/wholly interested.

Great build. One owner for 14 years who by his own admittance is too old to drive it much anymore, and from 2013 to now has driven only 1700 miles. Somebody should call on it. Always do your due diligence.

I get what Raudi Driver means. It was a similar situation to the silver .2 I bought. I didn't even have any real pictures of it when I bought it. At least not the whole car. Seller was older, had no interest in answering a lot of questions from the several people I sent to him. I had a gut feeling and went for it. This red car could be similar, or could not. If I was looking for a .1 I'd be checking it out pronto because Grand Prix and others are doing it as we speak I'll bet. It will get flipped if he negotiated even a little.

I agree with Sword any time I sell a car I tell every little detail. I also make the price firm no offers. Period. If it doesn't sell in a few weeks drop it a smidge. Saves a lot of bandwidth.

Best of luck with your sale.

I really hope somebody here snags this car. A one owner, well specced, sub 15k mile 997 GT3 for below MSRP is a thing of the past.

I agree, someone snag it before a dealer snags it and bumps another 10k on top.

Yes, you made a statement, which was an assumption. I made an offer for a wager to show you that you're talking out your other side. Had you not been, we would have had a bet.

BTW, I have no information on the car or owner.

I reached out to seller yesterday as soon as it was posted here; have not heard back. asked for photo of inside.

Why don’t you two ladies take it outside and hit each other with your purses. If you want to bitch each other take it to private message. Your ruining the thread and no one cares.

I saw that one offered at McLaren in Chicago. Very nice car. I am looking at one this weekend closer to me. An acquaintance has it, he never drives it, and it just stays parked in the back of his collection. I've been ribbing him lately to let me blow to dust off it and give him a reason to put some new tires on it. He said If I want to buy it make him an offer....So i'm going to help him move some cars around this weekend to get it out of the garage, look it over, and put some heat in the engine

fijibubba

Thank you for the kind words and well wishes. Yes, it was parked along a busy road. Part of me wondered if the bright color caught the impaired drivers attention, causing him to fixate on it, and thus drive right into it. I will never know, just a hunch.

You are right, it's a very bad time to be in the market to replace her. Patients is key I suppose. 👍🏻

Another car going up soon. No info on car yet

This one was up for auction on BAT last November, but didn’t sell. According to Gooding’s photos, the car has traveled only 5 miles since the BAT auction. Car originally had Orange graphics and accents (I think it looks better in its current spec) plus the PCCB’s were dealer installed. Clean DME according to the BAT listing.
