GT market is in for an interesting few months. Specalist dealers and OPC's have got an awful lot of cars up for sale...give it two months and they will be looking to adjust their stock levels before the winter months and OPC's will have the Sep quarter end volume targets to hit so I think there will be deals to be had in September.
As for the sheer number of cars up for sale it seems to be a combination of
- 991.2 GT3 being highest volume GT3 to date. Guesstimate of 400 to 450 cars
- GT3 RS and GT2 RS delivered at the same time as GT3 still being delivered so lots of GT cars being traded in at the same time. Lots of owners flipping 991.2 GT3's at list so they could secure a .2 GT3 RS slot from their OPC (everyone is a winner).
So we have an awful lot of GT cars on the market with OPC's having "a lot of money in them" as they've bought them at circa £130k for a good spec car. Prices are being marked down weekly.
Background to all this is that the specialist Porsche market (especially air cooled) was in a lot of trouble from Sep to March last year....prices were very soft and sales volumes down massively. I know one specialist didn't actually buy (all their new "stock" was SoR) a single car for the last four months of last year and was selling 25% of the cars it normally did. hard to see things being much better this winter.
Be interesting to see where prices are next March. Although I couldn't really care....just had the oil change done on my 991.2 GT3...running in done and first time on track in a couple of weeks
