3.8 GT3 RS prices in free fall...

[SonnyM]

Nice to see prices finally falling to realistic levels due to the pending release of the 991 GT3.

The 3.8 RS is a great car.

I think they'll bounce personally

Any idea what a well specced 991GT3 will cost

Traditionally that has been the case.

Based on the speculation £100k plus easily.

A well-specced C2S costs £100K, I would expect to see a GT3 at nearer £115K.

I do laugh at the stuff spouted on here..."free fall"???

That seems about right for a 2010 car, with that mileage, not special spec, and non-OPC.

The o/p was about RS prices, a well speced one was circa 115k, I would expect a well speced 991 RS to be circa 130-135k

Exactly!

The "freefall" bit was slightly dramatic.

A lot of 997.2 GT3 RSs were specced nearer £120k or more, especially once the price rise came in.

Freefall, we wish. Thats a private add with 11500miles, top money imo.
Take a look at the leeds RS it has gone up £2k this week, to £98k.

Yes, not free fall + private seller with high mileage. However, OPC obviously didnt want to know or offered him sub £80k possibly ??.

Yes I thought it would be good to put a normal title for once that fits in with the others

I wonder what opc cardif paid for the one they have just sold at £85k then?
£75k ?

Everything outside 'the' Royal Borough is in free-fall!

Obviously GT cars have higher prep costs which may need to be factored in.

The car above is a decent spec - good colour combo, lift, PCM, folding buckets, club sport. The mileage adjust plus extended warranty cost is way smaller than the £10k premium on the OPC cars that are close to £100k.

I'll raise you.

If Porsche follow suit with the pricing of new models such as the Ferrari hike in prices from 430 to 458 I expect a well specced GT3 will be £120k - £130k and the RS (when it materialises) will be nearer £150k

I maybe wrong but this IMO will cause 997.2 GT3 + RS prices to lift / remain firm

[pocty]

He's right they are in free fall...I'll take two of them please...

Any OPC will have at least £15k in such a car. Equivalent Ferrari's at the 100k price point will have 15 - 20k in them

Biggest cost is not depreciation but the differential between trade & retail

So you reckon they paid £70k at the most

Maybe £75k and price was reduced to move some stock through in Jan

There has to be significant margins in cars at this price point as they are depreciating monthly, prep & warranty costs, sales staff & big plush showrooms have to be paid for

There's another one, since when was 11K miles in 2-3 years considered high mileage. Most people probably walk further than that!
