I just found another 2003 in CA with 12K miles for 116K. Just trying to point out that deals are out there, how bad do you wanna look?

Again, I am not attacking the GT2 and its Value, just trying to point out that you do not have to pay 130K+++ like some around here think for a GT2.

I'm just pointing out that it's not as easy as it seems to find a very clean to pristine Gt2 with low miles (under 5 to 10k) period. Much less for under 120. Not impossible, nothing is, just difficult. I got mine, 4900 miles, mint, for 118k. I flew down and looked at personally and had a Porsche shop give it a PPI seal of approval before finalizing the deal. Best of luck.
Actually, I am not looking for a GT2 - but just wanted to give my personal oppion on price.

I agree that it takes more than just a phone call, BUT it proves that you dont have to get raped either to drive a GT2 (140k)! My point is: why take it in the A@$ from a random dealer without first searching Hi and Low for the right deal (120K). You can find this car from around 120K +or- if you look hard enough! Take your time and get the right car for the right price!
But again, if the perfect car for your tastes is higher in price, then buy it! When buying cars like this or other exotics, a few extra grand should not be everything you care about if the the car is everything you want! Case and Point - My Lambo. I paid about 5k to much in my opinion comapred to stock Lambos, but it had 10K in wheels and 3k in exhuast. It was exactly what I wanted and I did not care about paying 5k to much.

I just bought an 02' GT2 arctic silver/black with carbon st. wheel,shifter,e-brake, and full leather package with 16,800 miles for $102k delivered from Ohio to NJ. I had a PPI done at a nearby dealer and everything checked out with a full service history and one owner according to dealer,carfax, and porsche service history. The car is immaculate, just a few chips on bumper but with the mileage it was expected. Just wanted to share my experience to show there are good deals out there
