997 Turbos, though I'm not sure that's enough standalone content. I'm currently shopping/debating between the 997 models and the turbo. Pros and cons are a killer.
The best modern Porsche. It was undervalued as 991s flooded onto the market. I think the market will separate into those wanting modern convenience and ease (991/2) vs those wanting feel, rarity, smaller size and heritage (the last car from an independent Porsche b4 VW ownership). The GT3 and RS variants will be demanded by the cognescenti for their rarity rawness and size vs 'easy' and common 991/992s. It would be interesting to analyse if/when 997.2s leapfrog 991 values as they transition to 'classic' status.
This guy is on another level of analysis with this market. Out of curiosity I searched “997 values” to see what my car is worth and this guy nailed it! With I could give two thumbs up 👍
I’ve had three 997.2s. 2C2S and 4GTS all Manuals. These trends hold to my experience. Amazing car and great blend between 993 and 991s. Driven 992s and much prefer 997.2 analog drive and feel with soul. 997.2 will be the water cooled classic.
The 997.2 S manual is really the car to own. Super reliable and the last 911 before they got huge. The perfect blend of old and new school 911. I tried to talk two buddies into buying one last summer when prices were down
Would love to see a NEW video on the market for 991 Turbo and Turbo S models. 2014 - 2019. I have a 2017 991.2TTS and am on the fence about selling / keeping. Great work brother! You do an amazing job.
I have a 997.1 4S but it has a £10,000 hartech rebuild which has been considered the best engine rebuild you can get. They turn the engine into a closed deck design and completely replace the liners with different material. Also the IMS is replaced and a bunch of other things. Whilst people talk about the 997.2 being a better car (it probably is) I didn't have to pay £40,000 for mine. It was £29,500 and I never paid for the hartech rebuild. I went from a Cayman 981 and the DFI Engines are great. The 997 is way louder and torquer-er though. I actually loved my Cayman but I needed them back seats for my daughter. The 997 is still small and feels like a sports car and not a GT car.
I am from Spain and I own a 2011 PDK 997.2 Carrera 2S. Apart from the racing green + sand beige colors in my unit not available anymore as a standard option in the successive 991 and 992 models, I love its simplicity inside, yet its modern infotainment features (touch screen, iPhone/iPod/USB port, ..), PDK, Sport Plus, PASM, .. Moreover, the widespread view around here amongst 911 enthusiasts is that from the 991.1 version Volkswagen took over the body design, from 991.2 the engine too (Hans Metzger RIP), and the 992 is really a 2-door Panamera.
996s going up 44% is because they are coming up from the low 20's. The 997s were coming up from a much higher starting point, almost double. Not sure why he doesn't mention that. And no, 996s will NEVER exceed the value of 997s. The 997 is a much better car, and 997.2 has much lower production numbers. The 997.2 is the high point and the best 911 in the small format.
I believe the 997.2 is the next 993. The shape and the fact it's the last analog 911 means it's going to be a classic. Only made for 3 years as well. There isn't a ton of Carrera Base 997.2s that were produced because of the financial crash. It's going to be a special car and a must for every 911 collector.
Great analysis. Cleanest specification would be to include dummy variables for quarter-year (or month-year) of transaction to the other observables and plot the estimated coefficients on those dummies. Can do this for each trim level to observe the time trend.
The major key is the engine. The 3.8 DFI engine is significant step from the M96-derived engines. Someone who knows ands can afford will obviously aim at the 997.2 S model with the DFI engine. It would be great if you could analyze the demand also, not just, like now, only supply. It’s only half the picture. But obviously analyzing demand is much harder if not impossible compared to supply.
Yes, it's very difficult to find a reliable indicator for demand. Yet, given that price is set by supply and demand and that we know both the price and supply, it should be possible to deduce demand to some extent. I noticed that this works really well in some markets while other markets clearly function with a lag. But i didn't come yet to a solid conclusion on the mechanics of that one.
How do niche models such as the 997 Launch Editions factor into these values? Say, maybe a 2005 997 Launch Edition with 22000 miles??? (There were only 337 Launch Edition 997's imported to the US.)
Values go up temporarily because of the inflation. The only cars that are REALLY collectibles are air cooled and their values will be going up long term. 996 and 997 will never be nowhere near as desirable as 964 and 993 in the future. Deal with it.
Great content as always! Could it be so that the 997.2-buyers are choosing between that car and the 991? Or even for the 997 market as a whole? Maybe there's a connection here, if the asking price of 991 isn't that much higher than a 997.2?
@@redlightning4857 hell yes! I own one that I picked up with 17,000 miles on it and it has a factory aero kit. I’ve owned it for five years and all it’s cost me is tires, gas, oil and a clutch.

there is a massive flood of tens of thousands of used 911 dated from 2011 to 2021 coming in February, as most of the buyers cant pay the loans for them NOR can sell them in this moment. A lot of Porsche dealers will have to close as they are struggling very hard to sell the delinquencies as used, and Porsche cannot sustain to try to input less cars in the market anymore to try to get the unpaid cars sold.

It was the start of the peak. Values topped in the first half of 2022. The correction though was much lower than in the rest of the market. You can see the most recent market update here: th-cam.com/video/ifAmbtNAwwM/w-d-xo.htmlsi=wKeDP72mQnei9kdq
Which car would you like to see analysed next?
SLS AMG!!!!!
The 958 generation Cayennes
Ducati R variants. Motorcycles need some love too!

In my experience the delta between the two when compared spec to spec are between 15-20k, so one could cross shop, say, a 991 base with a 997.2 S.

Lmao mad. People are freaking out.
Buying a car with a standard transmission is like buying a house with a pool. While it won’t add much to the value, it will be a lot easier to sell.
