Post subject:  996 Prices

At some point in the future, I may decided to sell my 944S2 Cab in favour of something more modern. I'm talking many months or even a year from now. Wife says that we all (son is 2 and daughter is 6) need to be able to get in it, so Cayman and Boxster obviously ruled out. Air cooled 911 is too expensive, as is my first choice of a 928 (although that's hardly modern) so considering a 996. As I've never really thought about this before, I haven't been following how prices have varied over time. Have they levelled out or are they still dropping at the standard 20% each year?

I'd be looking at a manual coupe i.e. definitely not a cab and definitely not an automatic. Also likely to be rwd rather than 4wd. Would also prefer the 3.6 over the 3.4. Everything else is what most other people want - good spec, history, condition, low (but not too low) miles etc. What should I be looking to pay? Nobody can predict accurately how prices will change, hence my question about how they have changed up to now. If they're starting to rise, it may make me move more quickly.

Cheers,
Bryan

Prices have levelled out and in some cases risen a wee bit.
Just looking at current Pistonheads and Autotrader cars you will be paying anything from £13k for 120k miles to £20k with much lower mileage.

Your budget will determine what you end up with.
If going for somewhere in between these figures £16k - £17k
you likely get between 60,000 and 85,000 mile car.
At the 85k mark i'd like to buy one that had had a clutch done

I'd be surprised if any 996 worth having is going to drop much further. Most likely the nice ones will creep up, albeit gently.

You shouldn't have any problem picking up a leggy dog cheap somewhere, but that's not what you're after.

Sounds like 944 cab + 10k = 996 in same condition then.
