Default PTS now officially $12,830 and could go up!

As the title states.

Its reflected on my PTS order and confirmed by my dealer.

My spec PTS, pccbs, and other usual stuff now brings the .2 GT3 to come in at just under $190k.

Worth it?... hmmm!!!

....this makes sense

limited production for PTS cars due to capacity
lots of money in the world
if you make 2000 PTS cars a year (hypothetical example) and every year you sell all PTS allocations...now you can charge double and still fill all spots

license to print (or paint) money...

they have to pay for Dieselgate somehow folks

Capitalism boys. Go for it Porsche see what you can get. For that price, I wouldn't even bring up PTS when placing an order. Standard colors will be fine.

That's an *** raping.

190K for a GT3
I think we have finally arrived at the point for the first time in 10 years where Porsche is creating depreciation as deemed normal in the rest of the industry.


Why mess around with paint at all, if I'd be Porsche I would only do 1 color per month for free and all the others at $20K. Free color rotates each month.

Even at whatever color it is that month they will also sell.
Party is almost over and Porsche knows it.

Guards- I was at my Dealer yesterday and they had a GR 918 with black wheels and acid green brake calipers. They only want 1.7 million for it.

I have CR GT4 but would not pay $4000 over GR. I like both colors. CR a little richer but GR more pop. It made sense to give CR a shot on the GT4 because was a cheap upcharge

I am going Metallic Black, aluminum wheels and white gauges. Going old school . If I change it will be to GR

GT Silver at -$1500 relative to last year is looking like the deal of the century right now.
