Guy's How are the markets in your area?

 

the instant gratification will numb out the sorrow when i trade my 996tt in soon.
i am not expecting more than 40 grand for it.

 

What are you getting Steve?

 

Yea man, it's tough on the 996TT's. We've all lost tons of money on these things over the past few years. It's just the way it is.

 

Sorry to hear that Alex, I am also sorry that you are leaving us. I wish you the best of luck, J.P.

 

That's life JP.

Thank you!

If I will not be banned from here I will still read and write here.

 

Yeah Alex,
Agreed with Todd, we will lose big bucks when we sell our mod'd cars. I told my wife that I'd rather change my car to an inoperative status, cover her in the garage, stop the insurance and fees; than losing the money. Maybe when my grand-son to be uncovers the car when I hit the dirt, he'll have a classic rare car.

 

It's not a good time to be a seller, though it's a good time to be a buyer. I truly believe all the intermediate shaft issues on the regular 996's have hurt the value of the 996TT's even though they don't have the same issue.

Put the intermediate shaft issue, chrome headlight surrounds and the typical Porsche 911 buyer is not interested.

Of course for a more educated potential buyer like myself, the 996's are a diamond in the ruff.


Later, Steve

 

Pretty much ALL Cars are depreciating at a brutal rate... Even the Ferraris are sinking like a stone.. Scuderias can be had for less than 1/2 what they cost 3 years ago. 599's are just as bad. 612's are at 1/3rd of their values from new; you can pick one up for $110k vs their cost when new of $350K....

 

They depreciation curve seems to have flattened out a bit. The first five years were brutal.

 

guys, there is no "for sale" or selling in open forums..only in the marketplace...please take it there...the discussion about market values is fine right here...thanks

 

There is no way you'll been banned,you always behave nice and correct.You are a great guy Alex,i know you'll be still here writing and talking to us.

Later you may owned a 996tt manual .....then you'll never live the 996tt.It's one of the greattest car ever for great people like you.

 

Either an R8 or a 997tt, after winter.

 

The problem is that I am under the market price and still can't sell the car! So this is the problem, okay I am loosing a lot of money but I still can not sell it because there are no clients.

 

Nice! How exciting!
