Market has softened a lot it appears, especially considering that 07 with 70k miles sold for $114,000 just a couple months ago.
Market is softening, there's lots of uncertainty for the economy in 2022 which means people probably aren't willing to dump as much for toys without giving it a second thought like before. Have to remember these were 80k cars 2-3 years ago, 125k for it now is still a huge run up.

Hopefully that’s somewhat the case and people come back down to earth for cars in general. Not hoping for a recession, but I’m kinda tired of this ridiculous market as I am not planning on selling any of my cars and only want to add others.

Have to agree. As cool as it is knowing your car went up in value, I’ve seen it take away the enjoyment of cars for many people as they decide whether to drive or store since values have increased. Also, there’s plenty of people wanting to get into them that have been completely priced out. Even a 10% correction would likely help many and still be an upside for those of us that purchased years ago.

Either way, $125k is a very solid number for that car. As has been said, one sale doesn’t make the market. Whether that sale is high or low. We’ll see if the trend continues.

Maybe it will be normalizing a bit for GT3's in general since there were a lot of people that just want to see if the grass is greener...

I just don't think there are a lot of 'casual' buyers of track ready or RS...the market just reinforced what they already knew.

125K + 5K in Fees = 130 total. I expected it to go for 130-135.

The non pinned/welded lines and diff service takes that to 135+ before you're comfortable driving it anyways, that seems in line with the market.

I don’t think the market has softened. I think it’s the time of the year. January has never been a good month to sell a toy like the GT3. Comes Spring/Summer and you will see the prices on these blow up again. This is a cycle that happens every year.

This car is being delivered to me on Wednesday. I followed it for a few weeks before working the deal last week. I wanted to trade my Turbo but they lowballed me. Fortunately I was able to sell it back to the guy I bought it from very quickly in order to buy the GT3. I got a slightly different story on the minor damage...the explanation you received actually makes a bit more sense. either way...the Porsche dealer that did the servicing told me the car was super clean.

I would have kept bidding on that 07 with 70k miles but luckily didn’t have to. These cars don’t skip a beat, even with mileage. Solid buy at $125k+$5k. I hope the new owner drives the hell out of it.

I want to know who the celebrity owner is.. the rest of the garage looks sweet.
I can hear the seller now, "Honey, I'm trying to sell it but we're in a buyers market. Probably best to hold onto it".
