Lightbulb 996tt price

Will ever the price of the 996tt go up like the 993tt, 964turbo?

I don't think so. For alot of porschephiles don't think this rounded look desirable. I had one sold it bc of plummeting values. 993s are the most sought after. 1997-98 inparticular. Big $$$.

Personally I think it will go up, especially a very good condition one with unique colors / options.
But I think this will happen only in several more years...

You know the 993tt is sought after because with the 996tt they changed almost everything cosmetically (other than keeping the general shape the same as always) and also mechanically including the move to a water-cooled engine.

So it's sought after because it's the "last of" I think a special 996tt will be sough after in several of years for being the "first-of".

The 996TT and early 997TTs will eventually be sought after because of the engine. The new engines just cant take the big mods of the 996/997 mezger.

I think they made too many of the 996tt to be sort after. The 993tt was imited production and the last of the air-cooled. It's considered by purists to be the best Porsche made.

My next 911 will be 7GT2.. Those cars are so under-appreciated IMO.

It's 75lb more than a A/C optioned GT2 RS (which is often touted as being 150 lighter than the GT2 due to A/C delete) and a chip away from 620HP+ HP.

Since I bought my car 2.5 yrs ago, low mileage cars in great condition are still selling for about the same amount, if not a bit more.

I think the market just about bottomed out for great condition low mileage cars, and I think the 996TTs will eventually appreciate, but not by as much as 993TTs.
