Is the Porsche 911 GT3 a good investment?

The thesis

The 997.2 GT3 is the pre-RS sibling with a 3.8L Mezger flat-six (435 hp), 6-speed manual, and 2,256 built—an accessible entry to the last Mezger GT3 lineage. US market data shows £86k–£205k (avg ~£120k), with most trading £100k–£150k. It's naturally aspirated, manual, and pure—though not the 'last of breed' (the 997.2 GT3 RS and 4.0 hold that crown). Crucially, it's UNDER budget and hasn't run hard yet; the GT3 RS already trades at £250k+ while this hovers £100k–£150k. Strong upside as buyers priced out of the RS discover the GT3's 90% of the experience.
