Seems like a bunch of GT4s (and Spyders) have hit the market in just the last two weeks. Likely a combination of summer, people selling in advance of getting a .2 GT3, and people just reading the tea leaves that this may be the beginning of the end of the asset bubble.

^Most upgrading to GT3.2 or hoarding money for the GT2RS.

I will not sell mine until car hits the US. Made the mistake of selling my R8 V10 back in 2013 for my ordered 2014 GT3 only for it to be sitting at port for 5 months. Nothing worse than trying to save a few dollars and miss a season w/o having a toy to enjoy. Was bored out of my mind and nothing to enjoy on weekend - lesson learned

the market is definitely more saturated now than ever before. I have just shopped and pulled the trigger on a fully track prepped example and paid slightly under msrp. Expect a non-modified version to still garner 5k over sticker, most landing in the weighted average of 105-110K. The comment about people selling to trade up to 991.2 GT3's is absolutely correct, at least in my market.

^^^^ I don't believe a general price to buy a used GT4 of $115k is representative, especially from a private seller. My take on used prices today puts a GT4 with reasonable miles (under 10k) in the $100-105k area, and not around $115k, as much as I would love to believe the latter number. Low-ish miles (2-8k), LWBs, condition, PPF, and a smattering of nice and reasonable options would matter to me for a price much north of $100k, say around $105k. Exceedingly low mileage, PTS (to a small degree, and depending on the color), and PCCBs would contribute to a number above $105k, say $110k-115k. The supply of GT4s seems to be healthy now; this may eventually decrease as the cars fall into the hands of longer-term owners, instead of of the "tryer-outers" and flippers that initially got the cars, as well as any GT4 owners who move on to a GT3, or perhaps a non-turboed next-gen GT4 or GT4 RS. I do think the next GT4 will be NA. I also think that GT4 prices will hold up rather well as compared to other Porsche offerings, but some depreciation in the next several years is to be expected, say minus 10-15% of MSRP. That's my "forecast," and some of you know what that's worth.

If you pay MSRP for one it's still worth it, don't get caught up in what the numbers represent, if you love the car and think it's worth the price you have to pay then buy it. The truth is even if you pay a couple thousand over sticker for it you're not likely to lose your *** on this car through depreciation unless you rack up eleventy million miles.

I, just for fun last week, asked the dealer who sold my car to me what they'd give me in trade. $82,000.

I've held onto mine, and have around 2K miles. lots of fun. Any chance that prices could actually go up over the next year or two?

I guess it depends on announcements about the next GT4? Or is the new GT3 with manual gonna keep these GT4s from climbing in price?
