Morning Richie. Hope you're well ?
Spec is all important, so Clubsport or Comfort ? If Comfort, Comfort seats or leather buckets ?
Standard or modified ? Scope of modifications ?
Colour ?
If you're looking at a Midnight Blue comfort with Comfort seats and a host of mods, it'll be a tough car to sell on. A standard Guards Red Clubsport would be an entirely different proposition.
Plenty of these have ended up in hedges, ditches or wrapped around lamposts, so a very careful inspection to ensure panel originality (or quality of repairs after a shunt) is essential.
The market for 996 GT3/2's and RS's has softened over the past 3-6 months, maybe because buyers are now calling the shots rather than vendors, there may be a degree of seasonality to the market too.
A word of warning, there are currently more 996 GT2's up for sale on PH than there has been at any point over the last 18 months..... Prices are all over the place too.
Just be also aware, the 996 GT2 market is very limited, they are very much an acquired taste, the UK tally was less than 150 cars in total over 4 years of production, not only were they expensive, but they're not the easiest cars to drive.
Having owned two and lived to tell the tale, I don't consider them the "Widowmakers" some would have you believe them to be, but they're not the easiest/most relaxing of steers.
Whilst this might look an "easy" escape from your 997, be aware you may be heading out of the frying pan into the fire.
Have a good Christmas, hope to see you next year ! :thumb:
