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
The GT2RS is an expensive car, if the price is causes so much brain damage it shouldn’t even be on the list.

If everyone who has a comment about how many gt and rs cars were made and available for sale to bash the valuation and price would just buy one of these cars, everyone would be able to stop birching about how their dealer won’t put them on the list to buy one. Seems like everyone is looking for a reason to complain rather than embrace this amazing brand of automobiles.

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!

^^^ ...yup salaried emp are exempted from overtime which is state regulated. Salaried emp do not clock in and out, and not regulated to have two 10 minute breaks, and a 30 minute lunch. Yes it’s 10 minutes with 5 minute travel time. Fastmd has always been a standup guy, and offers to let you drive his wheels if in town.

problem is you have a lot of dreamers here who really can't afford these cars. so they bash them hoping the prices will come down so that they can collect their couch change and finally get one. those who can truly afford these cars are not the ones driving the valuation threads, trust me.

that is the quote of the day right there!! 
Regarding folks not being able to afford.....I was reading another thread the other day about how PCNA has embarked on a "pricing adventure" with both the 2RS and the speedster, due both to the need to recover from the dieselgate losses and to cash in on all the excess ADM's the dealers have been making last few years. Really if you think about it, how much different from the 3RS is a 2RS? How much more does it cost them to manufacture 2RS over a 3RS? Im sure its a small oversimplification to say just a pair of turbos and lower compression pistons, but you get the idea.
