Will just have to see. If I don't find the right buyer, I'll be keeping the GT3. It's one of those things, where the 09 C2S would fit my needs better, but nothing wrong with keeping the GT3 at least through May 2013 when the warranty finally is up

OK, I am the right buyer and I am not buying it. So keep it, get yourself a fun 4 Door and keep the 3!

Ron,

When a 09 C2S depreciates badly in 2 years time, you will hate yourself selling the GT3.

Good luck but I agree with the comments, keep the GT3.
Get a 4 dr. sedan with room, comfort, luxury and POWER that's a blast to drive.
Get an M5.
I love my GT3 but with as much passion I love the M5!

Thanks guys - depreciation means nothing to me, I never look at cars as any sort of investment, I buy cars that I want. And now that I've owned a 997 S and then a 997 GT3, I realize the C2S fits my needs better. If I end up regretting it, I can always buy another GT3, maybe the next version with DFI.

Easy enough to check out now. Take a look at what 2007 GT3s are going for vs. 2007 Turbos. I think in general you'll find the GT3 is maybe 10-15% off MSRP, where the Turbo is say 20-30% or more (about double the depreciation rate). Same with the 996 GT3 vs. TT. The GT3 typically holds up much better, probably because it's a limited production car where the Turbo is much more common.
