Can you please tell us how much MSRP is? Thanks.

This is what my dealership said in response to my queries:

"1948 worldwide to be exact with about 500 coming to the USA. We should be getting maybe 4 or 5.
This car is demanding a massive premium of $150,000 over MSRP.
We think that the MSRP will be in the range of 200-250k."

For that kind of theft I expect considerably more in return than what Porsche has offered up.

I love it.

Me sit on sidelines w/ Popcorn and watch.

Things have been quite boring, as of late, so this should spice things up a bit

Whatever do you mean? You get admission to the GT3 club, an exclusive Porsche club only available to more owners than that of any other production Porsche model, and a club which celebrates a car offering true driving emotion but which is simultaneously so uncomfortable to drive for more than 1 hour that 1/4 of the cars go up for sale before they have 5000 miles.

I'd say admission to that club is worth ADM!

I'm sensing a caustic wit imbued with a highly refined dose of sarcasm.

991 speedster is running awfully late out of its production cycle. There is customers in Germany with 992 S cabriolets already. The 4.0 N.A will still be very exciting but man there has to be some reason for the delay here.

My guess is emissions certification with the Exclusive power kit. Too much dirty power.

If that is the "selling price" then, ADM is about EU100K average. Now if that price EU375K is the ADM, then that is an outstanding "Highway Robbery."

"Delivery Sept 2019

The Porsche 991 Speedster.
As the last model of the 991 series, Porsche builds the 991 Speedster. First it was just a concept for the 70th birthday of Porsche. Due to high demand, it is now being built.
Limited to 1948 pieces worldwide . A barebone Porsche with manual transmission for real Porsche fans.
Your chance to get one of these coveted cars. Price = 375,000 EUR plus your configuration. §25 VAT not identifiable archive images. Errors, changes, transmission / input errors and prior sale reserved."

Drive safe,

Looks like we can put CATPAT down for 2 Speedsters :O JK
But I do wonder if anyone in the US will want or be able to score two Speedsters in the run? Collectors collect in multiples. I already want 2 LOL. I would like a heritage edition with all the bells and whistles plus I would want a Red one to show off the curves. Looking forward to pictures here if we're lucky and the buyers are sharers.

I was told in the UK MSRP would be around £250k. I sure hope you are right as that’s sounds much more reasonable.

GPF and it’s impact on performance I suspect.

Hey if I thought I could score a Speedster at or close to MSRP, I would definitely do so. I do think the GT3 somehow ended up as the tulip mania of 2018/19 but that doesn't mean they aren't tons of fun to drive
