I would not pay anything exceeding $10K over MSRP. As previously mentioned, most are selling $3-$5K over MSRP recently.

I was about to buy this but was a day too late reaching out. $126K MSRP, sold for $129K and has JCR exhaust already.

I just sold my GT4 and moved into a Macan GTS. . .

I think many on this forum would say I lost my *ss compared to what I paid for the GT4 one year ago . . . the market has certainly changed.

It is all funny money at this point, but I will not digress into the state of worldly affairs . . .

Private sale? Care to share specifics? Or be more ballparkish?

I got a few messages from different dealerships across the US that have <1000mi Spyders. It seems like the supply of Spyders on the market is going up.

You could always try haggling and say you will lock in today with X ADM. They're probably hoping someone will pay the ADM and if they don't the dealer will spec it and flip it for even more later.

I don't know if you can spec at 121k MSRP without buckets or PCCB? I think it would have to be PTS or have literally every other option selected...

Haggling for one of the last new 718 GT4s…good luck with that. FOMO is setting in.

Based on the delivery date we’re way past freeze point.

I’ve noticed the opposite in Canada - supply at a low of 16 nationwide (porsche finder) down from 26 in January / Feb. Prices went down from the frenzy of last year, maybe 4-5% but then held.

When I started my Porsche journey many local dealerships did the exact same thing to me (Fremont included) and I was super pissed about it, so I can totally understand how you feel.
However, since then, now that I came to understand the market better, I changed my mind - Why should they let you drive the car? From a business perspective that is.
They have tons of interest, they can sell it to someone else (and they did) without spending time, mileage, etc. on a "difficult" buyer.
The thing is they have no way of knowing if you are a serious buyer or just want to check out the car.

3 years old car, also how long was it listed?

Lucifer

Car us already built and on its way, according to that timeline

Hi all, I’m in the market for a Spyder in Miami Blue or a PTS color… manual is a must and prefer buckets and pccb.

Thanks,
Josh

There are 10 "available" in the US and none are PTS or Miami Blue. I did find a Chalk white one that is a total steal at $13.

Thanks for the link. Hoping to drum up a off market car. None officially for sale check enough boxes.

My ‘21 CGTS 4.0 had the engine replaced. You are correct that Porsche supplied a fully complete engine. Here is a photo of the replacement engine next to the one just removed.



Since the swap I have not had one single complaint. I think Porsche made sure our cars ended up being indistinguishable from factory fresh when done.

As SpyderSenseOC has stated above, I've seen several LOW-MILE, BEAUTIFULLY CONFIGURED GT4's and Spyders listed for sale on Bring-a-Trailer (BaT).

I've subscribed to the BaT daily free e-mail listing of their active auctions for years. The Wall Street Journal recently reported that BaT did $1.37 BILLION in sales last year, which allegedly makes them bigger than Mecum Auctions. Given BaT's daily sales volume I believe it.

Please keep in mind BaT charges a 5% (maximum $5K) buyer's fee as opposed to any ADM you'll pay at a Porsche dealer. That said, I'd HIGHLY VALUE any CPO'd Porsche over a car bought from a private party, unless that private party vehicle is already covered by the fully-transferrable Porsche CPO coverage. CPO Coverage = Porsche OEM 4-Year warranty + 2-Year CPO coverage. Porsche CPO coverage is additive.

Good luck in your search! I feel extremely fortunate to have gotten an allocation last year for the 2022 6MT 718 Spyder parked in our garage. They are truly SUPERB cars that will put a HUUUUGE SMILE on your face every time you drive it!! The photo below was taken a week ago at our local PCA chapter monthly drive.
