Most obviously the 996 GT3. If you picked up a 996 GT3 five years ago for £30k you'll be laughing now selling it for £60k or more. There was one for sale next to my 997 at the dealers for £70k with 40k miles on the clock! It had the original £39995 receipt in the paperwork!
The body shop guy by my old house bought 2 GT3 RS’s when nobody really wanted them. One was something silly like £25k, I think the other was less than £50k. He sold the cheaper one for a tidy profit and the other is sat as a little nest egg.
He seems to think about a quarter of a million for the one he still has. I honestly don’t know the market well enough, but as he runs a Porsche authorized repair center, he probably has a better idea than me!
You're joking, he's been on about getting an X, Y and Z since I got on this forum, he's the world's biggest tyre kicker!!
Crazy, I'm no expert but it sounds about right for a GT3RS if things continue as they are. Even if not then he is looking at an easy £150-200k plus at least I reckon.
Which one....depends if it was 20k mega over priced or not Right product, right price, deal will be done

It was a fantastic car and as you can probably tell , a whole pleasurable day could pass waxing and cleaning. Just loved it's curved / wide hips This sounds a bit daft , but unfortunately the car did everything too well. Once I got used to the pretty much lag free turbo kick , the lack of noise drama from the turbo and it's planted handling it became a bit bland. You had to be doing into 3 figures on the speedo to enjoy it ( and drive for less than an hour before my leg went dead ) . Hence selling it before it helped me lose my license. Could still look at photos of them all day though
As someone who knows next to nothing about Porsche's what does an S model get you over a non S? Saw a Turbo S yesterday out and about.
That is the “S” from Sexy. The S is a higher spec. Has more Bhp and better parts on it most of the time some better seats,standard ceramic brakes,... And the last turbo S has centerlock for the wheels where the normal turbo has normal wheel bolts. Henk!!!
