GT4 Numbers and Values ...
- Thread starter oliver

As for the rest of this thread, use the bloody things, driving them is where the real value lies. Mine has 5k miles and a couple of stone chips. It's about to get more of each in Benelux next week (Spa, Zandvoort) with a bunch of mates but I ran it in properly, will drive with some caution and I expect to have a great time in my GT4, just as Porsche intended. No plans to sell and besides, look at Cayman Rs, fetching pretty much what people paid for them when new. GT4s will always be suitably expensive. I expect to enjoy my 'free car' for years to come.
How can you expect to enjoy them if you don't even run them in or get used to them.

No, but rather high excess. The insurance company made a bit of an exception as they are fairly successful racers. In fact, my daughter is the current British GT4 Champion.
I will actually be very pleased if values fall. I remember as the very best of times the old 964RS trackday fraternity before the cars values went above around £100k and everybody decided that they were getting rather old and valuable to push to and beyond their normal limits (for both driver and car) !!
Will the GT4 pick up this mantle ? Particularly if values settle at around £55k in a few years time ?
As an aside, if driven with gusto the cost of tyres, brakes, frequent spanner checks, fluid changes, trackdays and associated costs are not to be sniffed at --- but this is where living the dream starts. In my dreams I am ... improving
Just joking
The only thing I regret is not having pant to sample. I would have gone for Maritime Blue in memory of Ulrich Richter's 964RS N-GT which I owned and did over 20k Km in ... Vin ending 9011 !!
The funny thing is, I didn't know it was his when I bought it ! I discovered this talking with Hacki at Spa who owns the only 964Cup Tiptronic -- yes Porsche tested one.

And, 991GT3 prices must surely subside as the Gen 2 launch process steps into gear - which could start to compress the values of similar cars. Surely there's more stock and turnover than buyers?
However, a well known specialist once told me that they could detect the likely state of the next year's market from Boxing Day. Once Christmas Day and the winter solstice had passed, keen buyers were starting to see the summer, and buying habits take shape. My local Caterham dealer always has the most enquiries in Jan/Feb.
None of which should worry anyone who has bought a GT3, GT4 or whatever, purely for their long term qualities and enjoyment factor.

Not a bad buy that but it is 7k miles and owner admits to a few stone chips and the like. prob a £73k car looking at spec. Mine was £75k with PDSL's and a few more bits.Steve Brookes said:Good spec GR car (IMO) in PH classifieds for a fiver under £85K. I guess the new price with the options listed would have made it £75K on the invoice (is that about right D?). So £10K over original and therefore prices creeping ever closer towards the 'cost' price. Might get there by the end of the month but the odds are no quite in my favour for winning the bet. []
