I'd guess it's a combination of (a) pastel orange isn't for everyone, which narrows the pool of bidders, and (b) probably most folks heavily discount value of the 10k of CXX on the sticker.

But you're right.
1. Pastel Orange isn't for me. Brewster or Nato Olive or some deep non-metallic blue preferably.
2. I don't heavily value a lot of the CXX stuff, especially almost $5K for the orange marker GT steering wheel.
The buyer got a great deal and the seller paid what he paid to put some miles on a fantastic car. In most ordinary markets you do have to pay to play.

Certainly isn't encouraging for us other PTS owners out there, but I think at the end of the day that color is not going to appeal to all buyers. And regardless of the original MSRP, it's still a lot of money for a non RS GT4 however nicely equipped. I think you probably run into some diminishing returns the higher you push the original MSRP.

Most GT4s in like this car (low mileage, ppf, perfect condition, etc.) were sold for well over MSRP, it means that the seller lost money for the customization - which is absolutely fine and how it should be

This 000 Spyder will test this theory of diminishing returns:

It will be interesting to see how this one ends up, but the 718 Spyder remains appealing whether configured with no/few options or built out to GT3 pricing. And I'd much rather pay for high-grade finishes and options in a 718 GT car than pay similar $ in pure ADM on a new or used GT3/RS/etc. As always, YMMV!

Two test results in already, and nice to see neither owner was punished for ordering a 718 Spyder with the CXX 000 Package—or, for that matter, driving them.

Where is pricing at on a 718 GT4s? Many dealers and sellers seem to want 10k or more over sticker, for a now 2 or 3 year old car, but the auctions I’ve watched don’t seem to bring that. I’m looking to buy a Gt4. Should I be willing to pay over sticker today, or wait it out and try to pick up a more reasonably priced car? I have the itch to buy, which can sometimes make you overpay…Has anyone been able to get dealers to deal?

12 months ago dealers were asking 15-25k over on these cars. If 10k is worth another 12 months to you then keep waiting but with them being discontinued prices may not go down.
My advice is find the car/spec you want and pay a fair price, you won’t care about that 10k after owning it.
