The 997 GT3/RS Cars For Sale Thread...
12-02-2021, 02:58 PM
I remember this car now. This was the one Northwest European had about a year ago. It has no A/C or radio. Probably the lightest spec possible of one of the lightest GT cars to exist. Only second to the 996.1 GT3 (and I guess 911 GT1 if that is considered a GT car) which the 996.1 was 10 kg (22 lbs) lighter than the RS 4.0, but we never got those in the US.

Thanks!
I followed that auction w/ great interest and was pleased with the results.
If I do decide to sell, I will go the conventional marketing route. BAT looks extremely time intensive with fielding lots of questions from spectators who are not even prospective buyers. Shame to see what happened to that recently withdrawn black 07 gt3.

I guess things have changed. How much is your RS today???
12-03-2021, 12:58 AM
I'd guess the mid milers (35-55K miles) in good shape, clean, straight, some tasteful mods, between 169K-199K. The market here will be enthusiasts, who understand what a fettled, broken in RS is, and won't feel so bad driving it, and enjoying it. These are the cars that should be sold traditionally, IMO, so there is time to get everyone comfortable.

If your FS video does not include at least one hard braking downshift rev match (bringing you from 4K back up to 7K),... then the video is a waste of time
^^^ this was in regard to the one RL post that commented on the hand at 12 o'clock for the entire "cruising" type video. It took me 15 seconds to FF thru that whole video.
It's a shame, because that kind of video, IMO, does not sell the car.

Didn't notice and was surprised this listing hasn't been mentioned:
https://www.6speedonline.com/forums/...ack-black.html
Pinned Coolant lines, upgraded LSD, and sharkwerks exhaust.
I would say, it seems like a good opportunity to pick up an example with little competition, but once anything gets posted on this thread -exposure goes way up.

Ok, I've written my post here & then deleted it 2 times. finally now I've deleted most all of it,.... but will leave this comment:

That car was for sale earlier this year for 95k. Not much information in the ad. Same goes for today, not much information in the ad but the price sure has increased for a car with that may miles on it. Miles count and many say that these cars can be up to $1 per mile, so start deducting off that price. Let's be realistic, the seller is not interested in selling the car.
I'm going to take my car out on Saturday and will do a proper video with the guys.

Looks like you bought it in Sept. 21'?

I just bought it with plans to enjoy it for a long while but as everyone knows the market has gone a bit nuts and a car I’ve been wanting for a long time is available to me so sadly this example must go. The DME is clean, it is well optioned. The car is pristine and drives amazingly well. Entire car has ppf on it. They will be putting the stock muffler back on. Front rotors were replaced due to cracks in oem rotors. Car has not be raced. 2 HPDE sessions from the previous owner.
I’ll be happy to chat with anyone about the car, would love to see it go to a true enthusiast. Cars this clean with this kind of mileage won’t last long.

So indeed your car has been looked at by this crowd....
This one looks nice... and reasonably priced (especially for the low miles). Any RL ownership known for this one?
2010, Black / Black, 17k miles, Leather Folding LWBS, Steelies, NAV, FAL, Chrono, rubber dash / door-panels, asking $165k
VIN: WP0AC2A98AS783451
https://www.porschedowntownchicago.c...e9d9b0c4f8.htm
looks like aftermarket exhaust tips (could be SW). No underbody pics shown. Some chaffing on key insert socket
Looks like maybe new tires too - PS4S

it is listed, I live down the block from them and it’s been there for the last few weeks so they got the listing posted, I just wanted to post on here to let everyone know about it.
