every thing has a price
yes there could be cheaper cars within the next month or two , but the problem , they could be far and that will add cost and headache
if this car has all the specs you want , then if they offered at MSRP, I am sure they are expecting less.. if there offer is MSRP certified at present time , then knock down 3-5 k
if there offer is MSRP not certified, then knock down 1-2 k and have them add cpo

+1. The CPO is well worth having. The pleasure of having a leisure car is hard to quantify in dollar terms, and the more you use it the less it ultimately costs per mile. Counterintuitive in a world where people think that by not driving the car they maintain its value, but virtually none maintain let alone increase in value: buy, drive, enjoy. If you aren’t comfortable with that, don’t buy.

TBH, it sounds like this car may be a stretch for you regardless of the discount (which would likely be minimal as of today's market) based on your posts and depreciation being a concern. While the GT series cars hold their value better than most, they WILL depreciate. In reality, the depreciation curve on these cars is far less steep than the average yet you believe that early 991.1 buyers "lost chunks". Let's take a 991.1 GT3 someone paid (new) $150k at msrp to $200k if they got truly hosed with ADM or crazy with options. 2014-2015 GT3 prices are around $120-140k. Even if you consider an absurd ADM on the original new car transaction and compare to the lower end of current used values the depreciation is above average with the folks who paid close to MSRP being the real winners.

I agree, it’s all relative. My hope is that this 180k car will be around 160-165 in two years at the worst. Who knows but I don’t like to be tied up, I like to try different cars. Loosing 5-15k in 2 years would be ideal. Sure there are economic factors that are hard to qualify now. On a separate note dealer told me the 60 month rate is 4.74%. I am going to look around different credit unions and bank. So far I see around 3.99% as a 60 month. Thinking about putting down around 50k with trade in and down payment. Any CU I should check out, or special rates available. Can put down more if it makes a difference in a rate.

I hate to burst your bubble, but that's not even likely in 6 months!!

We're talking about GT3's. Apples and oranges, not to mention most GT4's aren't for sale at or over msrp anyway. That said, I agree, the GT4 is a good alternative considering the OP's priorities.

Don’t really want to discuss how much money I make but I can if it makes more relevant.
I see a lot of .1 Gt3 that are about 20-30k under msrp. Most are in the 20k under MSRP price range. A lot of those cars are 2015-16. So we can say after 3-4 years a lot of those .1 Gt3 lost 20-30k at the worst. This is after the introduction of a new .2 model, with 3.8 vs 4.0. Also manual as an option.
Gt4 is somewhat of a good example as well. Yes it’s less expensive but looks like it’s keeping its value pretty well. What do you guys think .2 Gt3 will be with in 2 years?

I got a call from a dealer, they got used MT 1600 miles buckets, lift, PCCB. 180 MSRP on the website 5k over. I have been in talks with the dealer for a while and was offered the car At MSRP. A year ago it it would have been a great deal, not it feels good but I know market is moving or is at MSRP now. Not sure anymore, any advice would be appreciated.
More likely to appreciate than this gt3 over same time period
