Default Acid Green anyone?

https://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-...modelCode1=911

I think I know the Chicago-land dealership that took delivery of this car, which is where I'm trying to get my allocation. People can do what they want if flipping the car is their thing, but it is irksome that I'm scrambling to find one to track the hell out of and enjoy,and somebody else just casually discards theirs. <Rant over>.

First world problem, I know.

Wow... that's $100,000 over MSRP. You'd be better off paying $50k for a .2 RS allocation.

For $100k over MSRP, I'd "casually discard" my 2018 as well. Any takers?

What a joke. $279k for a GT3. Thought $50k was outrageous. That’s likely their strategy, ask $100k over and take $50k. Highly doubt they’d get $50k though.

I also saw that ad, was so mad since that is my dream color in a stick!

Will wait a few years out and get it at MSRP : (

Then there's this one, viper green. Figure they must have ordered the car from the NJ dealer. It really sucks that real people wanted PTS and instead flippers got it.

What a disgrace. No one should shop at that dealer.

Cool car though.

Can add another acronym to the mix...LSD, because that’s what you take before asking that kind of money.

Yeah, nicely spec'd. But 100K over? No. They are using the anchoring tactic. Ask for some ridiculous number, that way $50K or $30K doesn't sound so bad and someone will grab it.

Cool color. Needs different color calipers.
