VIP emails are sent to the VIP from David Donohue and to the Dealer GM. If the VIP does not respond, the dealer can try and work slimy ways to get it anyway. It's hard but dealers have done weirder stuff.

I could not get our VIP to accept the turbo S exclusive. He is getting a GT2RS however.
Those boats would be powered by the wind, no?

To the powers that be, he said it, I didn't, my hands are clean. I swear!

Just joking

But seriously, you would be the only dealer principal that I know that wouldn't do something like that. And I have known quite a few.

If a VIP does not want a high demand car, why doesn’t the dealer just cut a deal with the VIP? Order the car, dealer stores it until the hold period is over and then sells it?

And have benefited from another auto manufacturer's brand's sponsorship, with a blue and white propeller that incidentally wasn't used to propel the boat itself

I revise my comment from last week... A couple more weeks of equity price action like this, and you'll see a lot more GT3s at MSRP. deals.

Scary stuff and absolutely right...Anyone negotiating an ADM at the moment should feel a bit more empowered after the last couple days.

Hope its just a slight market correction and not indicative of broader market direction. As much as I would like to see .2 GT3 deals at MSRP, I've got bigger fish to fry vis-a-vis a sharp market correction!! LOL

Oh I'm praying for a massive market correction from these lunatic valuations. It'll be much better in the long run. I'd like to see at least another 15 percent drop in the markets from where we closed today. I'd prefer 25, but I'll take 15.

Why??? I want every one to make lots of money and be happy; if that is what brings them happiness. Most who want market to drop, either missed the timing or do not have money to play. When there is fear in the market is when the most opportunities present themselves. Half of this crap is computer generated. Crazy stuff. But I am still a Bull.

Stopped at a Jersey dealer today.
They have an allocation available for a GT2RS. Only $250K ADM.
They have a .2GT3 for a $30K ADM on the floor. $174K MSRP.

Ouch on the GT2RS!!!!!.

I do not get it. In 3 years the 992 GT3RS will be FI and will have all the same Aero of the GT2 and will be a lot closer in HP/Torque

Here in the midwest back in September the ADM for a configurable GT2RS when it was announced was $150K. Now I was told going rate is $200K after the Nurburgring record was established. A couple of dealers informed me by the time the car is actually here with unknown number of cars to be produced will drive the ADM even higher.

Repeat of the flip fest.

Drive safe,
