But, massive complaining about value/what should I buy/etc over then past few years and doesn’t this thread seem to be just another one? Especially once the OP stated in a subsequent post that he’s buying a GT2? |
Seems that gone are the days people simply buy a car, and regardless whether they love it or hate it, sell it if needed, try the alternative. If the don’t like the alternative, go back and rebuy the original option or something else. They are just cars. Buy them, drive them, sell them at a loss or gain, repeat. Or keep it forever. Whatever. But loss or gain has never determined whether I buy a car. I budget $50k-$100k in depreciation cost per year (collective 20k-30k miles per year). That’s the price of my happiness/hobby. I do it cuz I want to drive it and live with it. That’s the only way to know for sure whether you love or hate a car. All these type of threads are useless. It’s like when some people tell me a movie sucks. Ok. But I rather watch the movie myself and come to my own conclusion rather than going off others opinions. |

There were only 600 of the 4.0 made worldwide period- that's a fact.

And less than 200 of them came to the US. I bet there will be 600-800 GT2RSs in the US when the dust settles.

158 4.0 RS total for the US/NA, if I remember correctly. A few totaled due to crashes and/or accidental fires. Not sure if it’s below 150 now... But the overall demand for the 991 GT2 RS will be greater than that for the RS 4.0 simply because the former comes with PDK (or, as some would say, flappy paddles). |

I hear you Bryan. I guess i just pretend i am meeting the poster in person tomorrow, so that helps me temper my comments.
Great day for a drive today in CO. :) |
^Totally agree...Porsche is going to make alot of GT2RS.
|
every person would value different cars differently due to their connection and needs.
i don't see the value in paying 500 k usd to 997 4.0 at all !! where i can buy maybe 95% of the same car and performance from 997.2 GT3RS with 20% of that value, which i dont mind. i dont see also a GT2RS is worth 500 k usd at any level at anytime, yes if i can buy it with MSRP i would go ahead with eyes closed, maybe even a small P, but no way 500 k usd. its not worth that money! good luck |
Mooty sold his 4.0, became physicly distraught so killed a mole, put it in a blender and ate it!
