Is the Porsche 911 a good investment?
997.2 GT3 (2010–2011)
The thesis
The 997.2 GT3 with 3.8L Mezger engine (435 bhp) and 6-speed manual is the last of the pure, hydraulic-steering, na 911 GT3s before PDK and electronics took over. Only 2,256 built globally; rare, usable, and the sweet spot between the rawer 997.1 and more clinical 991. UK prices currently £90k–£125k. Cycle not yet peaked—997 GT3s still undervalued relative to air-cooled and later 991 GT3 Touring models. Hagerty data shows Porsche/Honda export strength from UK.
