Nice and subtle...

[blue666uk]

Not cheap though, that is a very premium price for a GTS

Some whacky paint jobs lately here with cars for sale !

Have I seen that one at Monkfish before?

The speedo seems to say 55766kms, but the advert says 58k miles.

surely it's vinyl?

It's had a few changes interior wise that are not stock. But looks tidy

And exterior changes. Front headlights, front valence and monaro rear lights and what I'm told is called the "Garnish" all look different to me.

I think I still have the original head lamps out of it

A good friend of mine Ian Heward who owns The Porsche Shop use to own it so if anyone want to know anything you could contact him

I like the rear garnish. So much so I have a Monaro rear set to put on mine.

I can't get on eBay from my works desktop. How much is it?

Any pictures of the underside, would be my stock question with any of these cars. Monaros too, given how many winters they've seen.

[Du1point8]

£15k

[ArnieVXR]

HOW MUCH!!!

Gary - Get the welder out. Time to fix number 16

Is it, like, a GTS-R? With 5K on the clock? And an 800hp whipple? And one Royal owner?

Last gold one sold for under £6K.

Now that's a niche sale in a niche market...

I do quite like the bronzey colour though.

Really these should be 8-9 k

They are rare and with them in the low road tax bracket too that's a bonus.

5-6 is too low. 15 is ludicrous.

I tend to agree. I think GTSs are unvalued by the market, but then the badge and the lack of knowledge in this country act against it.

I think if it were really a "time-warp" museum piece car, then I guess a case could possibly be made for the premium. If there were somebody looking to a buy such a thing. However based on the advert it looks to be a good condition (subject to not having a crusty bottom), but not very original car.

I'd be well pleased if the market will pay that sort of money, but I can't see it happening.

I paid £6500 for mine last july. I was happy at this price. Original but with 110K and nice and usable.

If a Gts is worth that whats a Gtsr worth then

This is about the right kind of street price. We all like to think they should be more but.

I know my memory isn't the greatest at times but I took this car for a test drive about 7 years ago from a Porsche place in Birmingham. From memory, it had some n/a engine work done, cam at least I think, it put down the power pretty well especially bearing in mind that I'd just sold a supercharged GTS. It also made a good noise from the side exit pipes.
I don't remember the exact price at the time but it was nowhere near the current one, 11k sticks in my mind for some reason but like I say, that was the best part of 7 years ago. For some strange reason I though it would be a good idea to stick a mahoosive rear wing on it, slam it and pretend I was rolling in the Bathurst.......
