I don’t think it would be much. Wasn’t that long ago they were still selling for overs. Not looked recently. Think supply has stiffened up a bit too
Thanks for the responses - I think I'm looking at a potential 10-12k loss, I think there are plenty out there now.
Hmm, so the OPC (if that’s a trade in) would still be looking to offer it at close to list price for the next owner. I think that maybe a 718 GTS 4.0 may hold its value better than the 992 C2S in the long run... 🤔
I think they usually have about 7k margin, so I suspect they would offer my list price of 105k 992 C2S at about 100k.

Any thoughts?
To my mind, it would depend on how you use the car'

If car mainly used for "pleasure drives" on nic twister roads. 718 GTS 4.0

If car used for long trips. mainly duel carriageway etc, and comfort high priority keep 911 C2S

I think the 4.0 718 GTS is a very tempting proposition, but it depends on how much you’d lose on your recently acquired 992... 😬

Although I believe they take longer to get now which might help
