991.2 GT3RS for my son!
For my sons birthday, me and the wife have decided we want to get him a really nice car, and he knows that, so he designs the car he wants on the manufacturers website and emails me the link to check out the cars he wants, and a couple of days ago he built a extremely beautiful GT3RS (http://www.porsche-code.com/PKFIIHM8) but he also told me he wants a PTS color called “Voodoo Blue”. I have never owned a Porsche but I somewhat know what PTS is, but I cannot seem to find the prices for the Voodoo blue color. I know the RS is a little pricey for a first car, but me and the wife have been researching the reliability of Porsche’s and the 911 seems to be extremely reliable! Does anyone know if I can get this car without a markup? Or if there is a markup from the dealer, how much over seems fair? Also how long is the warranty and does it cover services like oil changes? If not, how much are oil changes at a dealership? Also, being completely honest, would you personally take a Huracan LP610 or a 911 Turbo S over the GT3RS?
Update: The money is not coming straight out of my bank account. I am not a trillionare. The money will come from inherited land that my family will never touch again.

Are you serious?
Hard to take as legitimate to be honest.

Definitely stay away from the turbo S. Not as safe as a GT3RS. GT3RS has only 2 seats so much less chance of being distracted by friends in the car. One more tip. If you live in a cold climate, don't forget to put studs on for winter. New drivers really struggle on the ice!

I am 100% serious. He had a hard life for his first 13-ish years but I now have enough money to be able to spend it on him. Being completely honest, I don’t think I’m getting him an RS. My wife wants to, but I prefer him to drive an AWD car.

Please don't buy your 16-year-old a supercar if you're hoping he'll live to see his 17th birthday.
How about a Range Rover Sport? Cool, reasonably quick, and SAFE.
