Good news 996tt Prices on the rise

I just saw the Manhiem post sale list for the past 2 auctions and prices on 996tt are on the rise. My friend who is a dealer just sold an 02' for $6000 more than I bought mine for a year ago and mine is an X50 the one that sold wasn't. The price of P-cars are up across the board C4S are up about $4000 over last spring. Good for owners bad for buyers.

Really depends on whos looking to buy. Some auctions they're high some are low. I've seen one go for pretty low earlier this month, but yes this is bad news for buyers like me

I do enjoy the car, it's just good to know if I decide to upgrade to say a 997 I wont get hurt.

Couldn't this be the normal rise in vehicle prices that happen right before summer? That is when more people tend to buy anyways. I bet they go back down in the fall and winter.

I have seen alot of sports car values rise in the spring. It seems to be somewhat normal barring financial disaters. The 997TT values are up too.

I've been tracking lower mileage cars (under 30k) ever since I shopped for mine, and they are getting to be slim pickins.... there are a total of 14 manuals in the whole country under $50k (Autotrader).

Really, I don't care if I lose money on my car as it's been absoultely 100% satisfying to own it for the past year, but it's good to know that they aren't falling appart in the value dept.
