Bit of an edge case GT cars (2/3/4) if you can buy them at retail and not really relevant to the thrust of the thread.

I do agree but most owners of 'from new' conveniently leave out the £200k of other Porsche's they've needed to buy first. Kinda skews the figures a bit more.

I referenced this thread to a friend, who had bought 2 x 991 2 x Cayenne S 1 x Macan S and a 991.2 GT3 (used at OPC for overs) before they offered him a GT4 build slot, that's some business model.

I suspect the new GT3 will be more akin to your friends situation.

Few low mileage 718 GT4’s available at the moment, was asked if I was interested in one today....
And I’ve never owned a Porsche.

The GT4 is no longer so exclusive to get. I know 2 guys got one and both had only bought one Porsche before, a Cayman and a Boxster for the other guy.

I agree the current GT4 is easier to get hold of an lad without Covid production I think it was almost possible to achieve a a lot with a phone around.

My neighbour two doors away has just changed his black M3 for a 2016 black Porche Caymen GT4 last weekend.
He says that his M3 needed pads and discs and tyres and it was going to cost him a couple of grand at least, so took the plunge and went for the Caymen. I have to admit, it does look like a step up. |

Yes just haven’t been looking at them so surprised it was ‘easy’ to get one.
I’m not sure how they are priced relative to when new either.

I still have a boner for a Spyder but I think would have to be new, so yeah, there's that and I'm not in the house with a double garage yet, would want it out of the rain. Does everyone believe the mileages, can you spoof a modern Porsche? I know some of these are toys for the uber rich and a 4th car etc, but some on there...hmm 2 years old 3 owners and 2000 miles has me pretty suspicious. Apparently some buy them for a little trip to south France and back and that's it? That was the car ownership. Hmmm again. I imagine that is where Sennen is currently, only got the Fabia for the France trip. Big mistake not getting the special 'Air Con' limited edition but hey ho, he's enjoying himself, why not! |

Yes just realised about the GT4, was browsing you tube and watched a video of someone speccing what looked like the exactly same car that I was sent details about. So there kindly letting me have it for about list price 12 months on
I’m doubtful now since I will need to daily it, even with my low mileage commutes. Would be very top top budget and then I have service/ running costs.... Also wondering about whether to jump in on the GTS 4.0 now or wait till the PDK becomes available....

However, I would expect that many of the GT4s, especially ones with the Clubsport package, to have seen track use. 2000 miles could easily be 10 track days!

981 Spyders are at around 63-64k, like this one at 911 virgin I see one around town a bit locally in grey and it looks lovely.
