In Europe the acceptance in the market of 997 GT2 is very good so far. I think you can't compare with 996 GT2. There are no signals for the the same depreciation rate.

Thanks for all the good input. I am not in any hurry... very happy with my current cars. The F Car has been fun but I am ready to make a change after almost three years. I am just curious how the new 911s are going to influence the GT2s in the future. Seems as though the 2008 GT2s are great cars but the premium over the Turbo for 2008 seems a little out of sorts. I just wish Porsche would take the GT2 and make it far more distinctive from the TT. I doubt mind paying more if that were the case. As an example, I will pay more to get a good steak at Ruth’s Chris then be forced to eat one at Outback. That kind of thinking...

When you drive it, it feels nothing like a TT.

i sold my Gt2 not too long after getting it. luckily broke even. its an exceptional car, just awsome. but it was , for me, too similar to my TT, too refined. I just love the RS, the Cup cars, the 964 Turbos. stuff thats a bit more raw.

And not that it matters, but that is, fwiw, the underlying thought on the GT2 and why its suffered a bit. ..too similar to the Turbo at far too much of a premium. I gave it a shot, wasnt for me.

just my two cents.
