Understood, just take the hit on the BMW trade and get the 4RS that you really want 🤷‍♂️

Yes they are all over the place. I’ve seen $60-$100 over tossed around the last couple of days. Only you can decide what the car is worth to you.

I don't think it would make sense for Manifold to do that. GT3 at msrp nets the dealer $30-$50k when they resell as a CPO car. If he trades in the BMW, the dealer will want that $30-$50k somehow

Exactly my point, take the $30k hit on the car that is depreciating like a 🐷

The only BMW I have is a E93 M3 worth about $35-40k.

Sounds like the perfect car to trade in for a 4RS

You can always sell any of your other cars at market or trade them in for the next one

They are far more likely to hold value but you already know that 👍

Get the 4RS and enjoy

Good luck with your decision

I haven't received an allocation yet though I do expect at least to be offered one at some point, I just don't know that I would trade my GT3T in for one. I would add one but I couldn't give up the GT3T

Jeff, I hope you score a SRS, but enjoy the GT3T in the meantime.👍

Problem is that I haven't yet tracked the GT3 with proper setup, and have never driven a 4RS on track, only got in the right seat in one. I think GT3 is the faster and more sophisticated car on track, but I don't know which one I'd enjoy more. Reviews don't help because there's no consensus on which one people like more.
Trade in either the 991 Turbo or 992 Turbo even if you have to take a little hit on the trade in. The 4RS is worth the price of admission.

991 TTS was already traded in for the 992 GT3.

992 TTS is kind of replaceable, but I do LOVE that car and that build, and replacing it now with a new one would cost $27k more than I paid.

But tell me more about the 4RS, help me decide.
