As a ex 996 GT3 owner you are correct. The 997's in some specs can be brutal on the road.

Have 996 GT3 prices gone as crazy lately?

No but if they stick a manual in the 991 GT3 or GT3 RS then they are going to drop like a stone. Not really into the affordable range but at least into dreaming range. I might be in minority here but if your going to spend that sort of cash get a GT2 RS with a manual and hold onto it for a long time.

I honestly believe the GT2 RS will not hold its value as well as the RS 4.0. The turbocharged engines just haven't got the absolute craziness inherent with the 4 liter N/A Mezger.

A GT3 RS is at the top of my Lotto list. I would get something else to DD but they just push all of the right buttons for me.
