yeah scarily that sound not unreasonable

Crazy how 996 turbo prices are almost hitting 997, basically 996 are going up while 997 are still going down a bit.

If you look at comps, it's scattered.

<15,000mi are asking 65-69k

>60,000mi are asking 43-47k

I think the 997tt is faster. Better looking too. But it's one more step in the direction of a GT. Even more so than the 996tt.

I agree with that but does not seem that scattered to me

yeah that was sort of my train of thought too. Also for me the 997 was a bit more computerized with the computer controlled center diff vs viscous for 996(but I never drove one and the 996 fell into my lap). I think a 996 GT3 is the way to go, first GT3 and no stability control.

Except you can't get one of those for ~$50k.

yeah maybe ~$70k for a decent one? But I think they will go only up unless the economy craters again

Here's to economic collapse!

Nice. Let me know when it gets in the 50's.

Though, I'd rather a more traditional Porsche color of silver or grey or black.

Love Lapis blue (my first porsche, a regular 996 C2). Love the 996 turbo idea though 50's seem dear..
