your opinions?

 

$110K to $130k or somewhere in between the 997S and the 997tt.

 

whoa ... 110K i could manage but iono bout 130 K.

 

eh what's a 20k?
if u do 110 then u can do 130k
right?

 

well yes and no... its the principle.. if you can do 130K you can do 150 K and so on.

 

Why such a massive price jump from the 996 GT3 ? I was thinking $100K. At $130K I don't think they sell many at all. Many of the premium cars are selling for about what the previous models are (MBZ, BMW, etc.) or a small premium.

 

If you consider that a C2S with the X51 (381HP) is about $100, it's not hard to imagine the GT3 (400+HP?) being 20% more than that, or about $120 to $125.

 

not true because the 996 X51 package plus the car was more than or just as much as a base GT3 it all depends on what you option... but a GT3 will be no more than 110K base... my bet...

 

If the 2005 brand new GT3 was 100,000 K why would they up the price 25K more just for a redesigned model?


I'm having a hard time deciding what to get when my lease is up...
save money and buy a used 911S with alotta good options or buy a brand new GT3 with only the must have options.

I only plan to track the car 3 or 4 times a year. I wanna use the car mostly for daily driving but i don;t really wanna compramise this time when i buy a car like i did when i bought the 987 instead of a 997.

 

That is what I meant: $110K base to $130K loaded. But this is only a guess based on the 997S price.

 

i would go with a GT3 based on the facts of pure driving pleasure!!! right now the 997S is the closest thing to a GT3 but it is still no GT3... when the 400hp beast comes out it will be a whole lot of fun!!! you live in Vancouver so no worries about snow... even in Toronto unless there is snow on the ground i drive my cars with Traction OFF!!! trust me GT3 is the way to go...

 

i know haha 400 hp outta the box is beautiful!

I Drive my 987 like a porsche should be driven. A 911 GT3 would be so much fun around the public commute wouldnt it?

Maybe I should put my deposit down soon...

6088TTS are you buying from a canadian dealership? I'm proboly buying from seattle.

 

Just Do It!!! a GT3 is the only way to get the 911 experience 100%... and yes i am buying from a Canadian Dealer... and i would love to know the procedures from buying a car in the States... can you please PM me on the details of that if you don't mind??? thanks alot in advance...

 

haha spoken like a true porsche junkie!

I Also think the 911 GT3 is %100 pure porsche and anything less would be a little too comfortable. But Im still debating since I could save a nice wad of cash with buying a used 997S which they'll be a nice selection in a year when my 987 lease is up.

 

The 996 GT3's base price is already $100k... It's not hard to imagine that the 997 GT3's base price jump to $110k-$120k with a new design, engine and technology from a car... Don't forget about the options too.
