[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Going to depend on the year and model. An old Carrera can maintain its value.

Depending on the year and other particulars, it's not necessarily a terrible purchase. But, of course, you should be prepared that it might be a terrible investment. Definitely don't get into an accident. A simple fender bender and that could be $50,000 that goes poof in valuation. [/quote]

It wouldn’t be a vintage model, just a basic 911 from like 2021.  I guess I’m just wondering if I pay $100K for one and drive it for five years and 12-15,000 miles total—and hopefully have no major maintenance expenses—approximately what will it be worth in five years?[/quote]

The base model 911 is a great car to drive, but its the least collectible. A few things that can help minimize the depreciation would be to get a rare color, manual, and sport exhaust, but that will be a premium on the buy side as well. I would stretch to buy a 911T in either the 992 or 991.2 generation as there are more manuals available and the more fun driver's car compared to the base 911. There's a huge range of Porsche and the only investment grade ones of the modern cars are the PTS GT cars, Dakars, Sport Classic, or you go the vintage route and get a 964 RS before they hit $400k.
