Default 2018 GT3 for MSRP

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.

I think if you like the build that MSRP is probably about right.

I figure slightly used ones would be fetching MSRP.

If you want to sit and wait another 6 months; it will be less but then that is 6 months of not having a blast in her

Do you want the car? If you want the car, why would you let the price stop you if it fits your budget?

Wait 6 months it will be cheaper. Then wait another 6 months it'll be even cheaper. Then wait some more as it will probably go down some. And so on.... or just buy it now

I just bought a 2018 with a few more miles for basically MSRP and I’m happy as others have said if it is the car you want don’t wait . Yes they may be cheaper ones but you will miss the fun and it may not be the car you want. Life is short just ask me. Enjoy every day you have left

Maybe see if they can throw in a package or have them cpo the car at msrp, I think that may be an even better deal there.

Then everyone will go back to wanting the 991.2 GT3 and prices will climb again. So don't wait too long

The best you could do if you're lucky is a couple of thousand below that. If you're lucky. Just buy it and enjoy it.

a .2 GT3 with 5k miles at msrp is a good deal right now. You might be able to negotiate CPO and a few accessories into the deal.

The money you spend on the driving aspect of the car will be worth it. These are awesome cars and if you look on the marketplace...where can you get 180k cars that do what a Gt3 does from other manufacturers...in a manual?

I agree there is no other car in a manual that does what GT3 does and hopefully keeps the value. I’ll ask about CPO. That makes sense. I just don’t want to end up like a lot of 991.1 Gt3 and RS buyers that lost chunks. But at least MSRP it makes sense. Thank you. I’ll reach out tomorrow.

Any car you put miles on is a car you spend money on. This whole 'not losing money' thing only applies to people who bubble wrap their cars.

Yes waiting forever to get a deal is stupid. Only problem is that am not rolling in cash. Make enough money to afford the car, but am not buying super cars every year. Some of you guys might not bat an eye at the ADM but it’s hard for me to justify it. All the cars I owed so far are around 100k max. This is a step up and just want to get it right. I appreciate all the replies.
