Not exceptionally creative but picked the right major in college (medicine not art history) and worked hard. Fortunately $60k is not my annual income. Hard work and good choices when you are young go a long way later in life. My thought on waiting is this: you have no guarantee of tomorrow. I see plenty of people who thought they had all kinds of time left but unfortunately their health changed in a minute. Feeling great one day and either not with us anymore or very serious health issues. I trained as a heart surgeon and one of my mentors favorite sayings was "there is no fun in that pine box so better enjoy today". As a side note the best tombstone marker: "See I told you I was sick"

Well said. Live life while you can, and enjoy every moment. Staying on topic, let's put the nail in the coffin that is ADM. Only you can decide if it's worth it, nobody else.

We not only have similar stables but I also traded a 19 3RS for the 2RS as well. Keeping the manual GT3. Loved the 3RS though I didn’t get to drive it much but couldn’t justify keeping all 3 and wanted to keep a manual around.

Similarly here, still holding on to a GT3 Touring, and may in fact keep alongside the GT2 RS. But if one had to go, there's no question which one is a keeper.

Great minds think alike. These are toys. Enjoy them.

Agree. Those that can and want to pay ADM are more than welcome. It’s their choice and pretty much anyone that can pay a markup on a $300k car isn’t stupid especially since they are buying a Porsche GT2RS which is very much an enthusiast car and not much of a poseur car at all.

The rest of us don’t have one for whatever reason. Those reasons can include we can’t afford it, we don’t want to pay ADM out of principle, we don’t want one, we want something else more (retirement, house, investments, legacy, charity, etc.) and/or we are cheap bastards.

2RS is a monster and an absolute blast to drive. Worth it if you can afford but I certainly wouldn't be paying a premium unless it was a very rare color that I had to have.

These guys are sitting on seven at the moment. Haven't seen one sell in months and the asks keep falling.

Or don't

And stop talking about it.

How nice of them, they even left the wrapper on one of them. haha

I think the value of these cars is whatever people are willing to pay.

Just bought our 2rs at 21k over, with barely 500 miles PTS with all the right options, no sales tax.

Good data point, especially for a PTS car.

I would demand a discount off sticker on that one since the original right rear wheel protector is missing!

There are alot of new and used GT2RS available and the prices will keep coming down.

Hello, reality check! Working 20 hours a week of overtime, as a upper-middle class professional such as myself, equates to 204 weeks of working, AKA just a bit less than 4 years of 20-hour extra work weeks. "working overtime" to pay for $200k ADM doesn't work unless you are pulling down well more than a million a year, which most aren't. Most p-car owners aren't super rich, and many make sacrifices in their life to be able to afford these cars. It is good to have some perspective

Everything for sale here is a .2 something or other. Most aren't moving. Porsche did the right thing and captured the revenue they were sending to the dealers by building more cars. If the demand is there, either raise the price or build more cars.

I like that you think like an accountant and don't get too emotional about money! Probably why you can afford these cars!
