One of my local dealers just got a GT Silver Spyder with bucket seats. I checked the car earlier today just to see if I like the color, and it looks and feels brand new, with around ~6k miles.
The front, doors, and mirrors have PPF.
My SA said they will probably request ~130k, but I guess they will go for 125k. The car will be CPOed.
If anyone is interested, let me know.

Then that doesn't represent "today's market", now does it?

Exactly my point. It's a "naturally aspirated, manual car". Ford sells a lot of them, and will continue to do so for quite some time.

My point is the "market" as a whole doesn't care about these cars nearly as much as people who post in this thread would like to believe... nor about the fact that they're going away. Some people with money might care and some folks may make a quick buck here and there but I'm still not sold any 718 will really make anyone rich as an investment.

Kind of crazy to me actually that people who can easily afford these cars are this spun up about maybe making $20k or even $50k in a couple years. That isn't a life-changing amount of money to me, and I'm not rich by any stretch...

I'm just here to enjoy my car while I have it, and every time I get dragged into these "value" threads it feels like that lessens the experience. Yet here I am...

Edit- While I'm here I'll add my own little data point. I was offered a trade-in on my '23 GTS 4.0 I took delivery on in October, 2400 miles, PDK, GTS interior, premium package, etc. etc.- good spec, ~$114k MSRP- a whopping $102k. It wasn't too long ago that folks were on here bragging about trade-ins of close to or over MSRP for cars a couple years old with a few more thousand miles on them, and supposedly "the used car market is recovering", whatever that means. I've seen it pop up occasionally.

Personally? I think dealers are more interested in nabbing whatever last pockets of cash people have laying around so prices remain elevated- but they aren't sold on the market staying hot for long so they're lowballing on trades.

For anyone wondering, clearly I passed.

I think that's pretty accurate. We're a small group of people here. Less than 100 that post here frequently, I'd say. And we get caught up feeling like what we are obsessed about represents the tastes of the general population and it probably doesn't. But then again, Porsche doesn't make enough cars for the general population so we're probably all that matters.

PDK or manual?

From what I’ve seen on the market and actually selling my Spyder the dealers will offer 10-15k below MSRP depending on miles. They will list it for sale for 10-15k over MSRP CPOed hoping to find someone but they’re afraid of getting stuck with the car so offers are low.

Private party sales are somewhere in the MSRP-5k over range unless it’s a special spec like the 000 Spyder.

Apologies for the slightly off topic question, but Porsche CPO transfers to another owner if sold by private party, right?

Pretty sure it's a manual. SA mentioned it to me as well online.

Missed your comment. It is a manual.

I only posted this because I honestly couldn't tell the difference between this car and some of the new cars that were sitting there. If anything, this car looked better externally, and equally new internally.

Here's a cool and brand new 718 Cayman GTS 4.0 (that might be available at MSRP...ask for Scott or Brian and let them know I sent you): https://finder.porsche.com/us/en-US/...-40-new-LXQ6NN

It's a manual in Ruby Star Neo--the perfect classic sports car.

Hey guys so i was trying to find the new car tracker thread but i can't so i'm making a new thread.

Redwood City Porsche in California has a GTS 4.0 available right now for sale for MSRP. They just called me asking me if i still wanted to buy this car but i already have my GT4.

This was the order i had put in before i got my GT4. it comes with a few options that are no longer available so this will probably sell very quickly especially at MSRP. If you do try for it, ask for Michael and say Lawrence recommended you.

Build (because i can't find the build code)
Aventurine Green Metallic
PDK
Satin Aurum Wheels
PDLS+
LWBS
Standard interior with trim matching exterior
Sport Chrono with Red Dial
Smoking Package
Burmester Sound System
Deletion of Decal on Doors
Bespoke Decal set
