Thanks guys! I'm going to be patient and hold out.

 

You don't know me personally,but I promise you I'm that crazy!

 

Fwiw, I believe Princeton Porsche has a 991 gt3 with about 4K miles for mid 150s.

 

In that case, the 6 speed is a fine choice of a hill to die on. The art will be lost in a generation. But that's another topic altogether.

 

I think we'll be ok.

You know,I was one of the first few to be on a 991 GT3 waiting list,back when they were only speculating the car's specs. As soon as they made the official announcement(PDK only),I have instantly taken my deposit back. I've used the money allocated for that car to invest in real estate-much smarter idea. I do not buy automatic sport cars.

 

Doesn't work, but if you just do a simple web search, you'll find used GT3's with 1-15k miles advertised for $155-190k. You might find one car with miles/history below that range, but there would be a reason why that car is light.

I get someone not wanting to pay $125k for a GT4, but I don't buy the argument that it's a few bucks shy of a GT3. Realistically, it's $30k+ more for the GT3. And it would be a used car. And it'll have flappy paddles.

Honestly, if someone really wanted a GT4; I mean really wanted it and intended to drive it long term, I can't see passing it up for $25k unless they just couldn't afford it.

 

Agree, the 991 GT3 market continues to be strong.

And the GT3 would not be build the the buyers spec.

People paying $100k over for an RS also seems crazy....

 

It's on the website. $144k and ~4k miles - it's a CPO, so it can't be too sketchy.

Anyone buying a $100k car should be able to afford a $125k car, but as much as I love the GT4, I could never burn 25k just to satisfy that itch. It just doesn't add up to a good buy for me.

It's a free country, obviously, and the market will decide.

 

2014 GT3 for $145k. Would need to call to see if it's a branded title car. If so, that would explain why the price is on the low end.

 

If any of you guys can find me a UV .1RS for $250k or less, I'll sell you guys my 2015 GT3 with LWB seats for $140k.

Where shall I wire the $$?

 

One that I can fit inside and go flatout in.

 

That would be my guess.

 

I would be surprised if a salvage titled vehicle would qualify as Porsche CPO.

Most of the cars on there, with low miles, are in the 150-160s and certainly not consistently over $200k, which was the point of contention.

I really don't have a dog in this one - so I'll leave it there. Obviously local markets vary and I'm sure SoCal is through the roof.

Regardless, a $125k GT4 represents a poor value, in my personal opinion. I suspect the market will significantly correct once the new version (or remaining 2016 allocations) come out.

Of course, I'm new to this nutty world, so wrapping my head around not paying BELOW sticker has been enough of an adjustment!

 

Don't you think that a Porsche is going to make more cars? They're already talking about building GT4's with PDK; wouldn't surprise me if dealers are already taking deposits on them. Point is that Porsche realizes that there is more demand for this car than they realized. I think you'll get more chances to buy 6 speed GT4's or something equivalent in the future. Patience is a virtue.
