I needed to simply say one of many hardest goodbyes I’ve needed to say in a very long time. My lovely 1 of three PTS VooDoo Blue Porsche 911 GT3RS is leaving me and I’m going to overlook her dearly. BUT I might be wiping away my tears with some huge cash.
I purchased this GT3RS proper within the midst of the pandemic. That’s proper, when everybody else was scared to purchase, I used to be on the market with my checkbook in hand able to make offers.
That is nothing new to me, I did the identical factor again in 2008, and I instructed you all to do the identical proper within the midst of 2020, however did you pay attention? I hope a few of you probably did, as a result of when you obtained even 1/10 of the type of deal I obtained with this GT3RS, you gained.
I didn’t speak so much about my GT3RS on my channels or socials, however I had this Porsche for over a yr now. Shout out to Joe at Porsche of Pittsburg for making the purchase expertise so completely unimaginable.
Let me let you know why this GT3RS purchase was so spectacular and why even the man who purchased it from me is getting a win too.
I purchased this particular GT3RS for a couple of causes, and it was what made letting her go so arduous:
- Authentic sticker of this automotive was $228k which is insanely excessive for the yr. That means it has virtually each single possibility from the manufacturing facility just like the houndstooth seats, the wheels, the leather-based paneling on the inside, the decrease alcantara sprint, full carbon inside, the twin headlights, the PTS exterior coloration, and so forth.
- The rarity of the colour to the yr of manufacturing, in 2016 VooDoo blue was nonetheless a PTS coloration and solely 3 had been made on this coloration.
- The wheels on this explicit automotive had been the identical MAG wheels off of the 918 in white gold, these wheels alone are a $30k possibility.
- The aftermarket modifications are insurmountable, the PCM from the 2019 GT3RS was added so there are entrance and rear cameras. The plastic covers for the vents, rear and facet rockers had been additionally upgraded to the 2019 GT3RS items. Even the diffuser was upgraded from the 911R that higher protects the exhaust which is insanely uncommon and exhibits huge consideration to element which I respect. The automotive can also be fitted with headers, exhaust, and tune to make it extra thrilling to drive than any inventory Porsche may ever hope to be.
The one draw again this automotive had was that the miles had been a lot increased, sitting at 20k on supply, however with all of the choices and modifications on the automotive it simply made sense.
I purchased this automotive in a bidding conflict towards a few of my college students in ECH, however the grasp gained with a full money supply, as a result of bear in mind, money is at all times king.
So, what did I pay? I used to be capable of negotiate the automotive down from $179,000 to $155,000. I owned it for a whole yr, barely put 300 miles on the odometer, and it simply bought for $220,000, and even nonetheless, on this market, I believe it’s price each penny of that $220k as a result of there isn’t any hotter 2016 Porsche 911 GT3RS on the market.
