Default 718 Spyder at Hennessy

I saw this 718 Spyder on Porsche finder and located at Hennessy. Salesperson told me on Saturday that it is available and asking price is $138K and the $112 number is MSRP. Almost 25% over MSRP-I want one but don't need one that bad.
No reason for me to call them ever again.

If you shopping by price there is a 2020 one in Quebec for 128g Cad which is around 103000 USD. White with the classic interior. KM are high but it's 'cheap' and not a bad looking spec.

Why get mad at them, they are pricing the car according to market conditions
most likely they bought it for above MSRP
I just sold my 2021 718 GT4 with 2200 miles for 6 k above MSRP to a Porsche dealer and it sold in 1 hour
so used car prices are determined by market conditions not solely on the greed of dealers
some dealer leave more margins than others , but this dealer probably would have been happy to buy that car for 90 k and sell for 105 k if the market was different

Lol, cheap is relative. It's priced slightly above MSRP for a 2022 with that spec. With 22,000 km. Crazy.

Place an order for MSRP if you can find an allocation after a lot of effort and wait 6-12months or pay a markup above MSRP if you want it right now. Sadly that's how the market is.

FWIW, new GT3's at my dealer are going to have 60k in adm tacked on...granted they are GT3s and trying to dissuade folks from flipping them in the market or on BAT which seems to be customary as of late.

I just choked on my food when I saw your post. That is the "champion" of ADM so far.

I'm in the same boat. I want one, but I don't know if I want one that bad. But I do know I'm starting to get more and more comfortable with ADM considering I sold my 981 Spyder for damn near what I paid for it three years earlier. Life is short. I don't want to stand around not enjoying the things I really want simply because I can't stomach paying over MSRP. If this were available, I'm GD sure I'd pony up whatever it took.

OP, I think you meant asking price, not selling price...

One might of thought that after what good, ole "Champion" has been through in the past few years, they might frown away from crap like this.

So now, instead of actually stealing your money (deposit), they attempt to take it in a legal fashion.

Classy, Champion,.....

I have a buddy who has a GT3 on order originally supposed to be delivered in October and now January, and he "only" paid $25k over MSRP in the NoVA/DC area. He has no prior Porsche purchasing history that I know of. Just like everything, it's all about who you know sprinkled with a good bit of luck.

Thank you, Archimedes. It is edited.
I did not bother to negotiate since I am in line for a GT4 and Macan S (for wife). I just thought maybe I pick something up while I wait. Life is short but I am not necessarily "waiting" for the allocations. The money NOT spent on ADM will be allocated to driving at Barber with Porsche Track experience. For me, that is a better use of the funds.

Some Porsches are collectible and will appreciate. IMO, I don't believe that these will appreciate in value and only time will tell.
