The 997 GT3/RS Cars For Sale Thread...
#1036
The PMC car has been for sale for a long time. They were very aggressive with me in saying things like make an offer several times. I think it's priced at the bottomish range but I bet it could be bought below 160. I'd expect you to have to spend some money to make that car perfect. Just depends what you want..
Price is good if car checks out, its actually what I offered Porsche back then when I looked into that car about 18 months ago.
I think it has Range 4 if it is the same car, but was a very long time ago

Grinds or requires very slow shift even when trans is hot
Centerlocks can fail
Water lines can pop
Cam actuators can eat the motor
etc etc
These cars are robust, but it is a 3k lb 450hp RWD car with huge fat rear tires = lots of load
Cars and Coffee will last 100k miles without blinking, rip canyons or on track itll require love to keep it going.
Cars and coffee a merc is a better choice IMO, these are fun when the motor is screaming.
Love all the GT cars, wish I had more $ and more space I would own one of each without hesitation.

when you have 43 GT3/RS purchases since 2011 and looked at over 100+ GT3/RS, u know the mkt.
auction is atypical
if by auction you mean sotherby, RM, goodings. they sell dogs as well as insanely fine examples. and the ppl buying also are very broad: from novice to serious collectors.
if by auction you mean dealer auctions, whole sale prices.
1. most good cars are not in the auctions
2. even if good cars are in these type of auctions, we have no access to it. so it's price is really a guidance of what dealer to dealer trades at.

From what I understand, this has yet to be documented on an RS, as they have lighter valve springs (and perhaps some other differences in the valvetrain) correct?

^ j.,
dealers make money....
each car i owned are sold for less than i paid, and i am not counting the 10% i lose to CA
i buy and put 5-10k miles on them, usually beat to **** on track
then sell them quite a bit lower than what i paid.
unfortunately most of my RS are not in the condition you like and generally have 15k miles or up, otherwise, i would ping you. should you want a 20k miles RS4.0 to beat on... i got one
btw, the partial collection you have at AV in menlo is very tasty.

I'm in the markets gents for a clean 997.2 RS.
Doesn't have to be low miles as I want to drive the car and track it. But it's gotta be accident free, clean and loved by previous owner.
Much thanks in advance.

Much thanks.
Seats are deal breaker. Must have buckets. Swapping them out is a hassle.
