kind of conflicted on this, if you expect dealers to stick to their verbal promise, you really shouldn't go back on your own, however if the "market" has dropped, you should renegotiate based on this as they sold it to you at a "market" price. Thats the problem when cars are looked upon as a commodity with a "market" rather than a toy with a fixed price

I only look at the GT3/GT3RS forum occasionally b/c my neighbour has a nice GT silver with WP & he was one of the first guys in Canada to get a .2 GT3RS. I'm curious what the .2 GT3RS production #'s are, b/c live in a small CDN city & there's numerous cars arriving at lone small dealership. GT4's in Canada are quite limited, & it's unusual to actually see one around town. An employee I know at Porsche here said numerous GT3 RS's are arriving. She's seen no less than 10 in the last month or so. The dealer has been selling slightly used ones ~ MSRP already & it's early in the year??

there's a breakdown in the production numbers thread. it's a lot more than I would have thought. From memory, it's around quarter of what the US got or something.

What do you do? Try to renegotiate the ADM upon delivery to dealership or what? Only way that would work is if you're prepared to walk and let them sell the car to someone else?
I’d try and find out what they are buying virtually new GT3RS cars at in trade-in, as that will reveal what they truly believe the market is. I am sure it is far below MSRP...

I have been kicking around getting an Aventador or 488, and have received multiple quotes for my low-mileage .2 GT3RS. Best I have got is 20k under MSRP.

I think dealers who paid over for these at trade are holding a bag and likely won't get that money back.

I doubt I will trade though, as the GT3RS was the dream car. Who knows why I have a lambo/ferrari itch...

Yeah. I kinda feel the same RE: the verbal agreement. However this is business, not a deal between friends. Dealers don't think twice about this stuff when they're the ones benefitting. That said, I want this car. I spec'd it. I don't want some car on the lot someone else built with weird options. So I can walk and grab a cheaper one for sure. But it won't be "mine" if that makes sense. And that is worth a few bucks. I've had the opportunity to buy a handful of GT3RS at MSRP. But they were either used "with delivery miles" or new, but with specs I didn't quite like. I was fine paying ADM when I ordered the car. But who wouldn't want to save some money if they can.

What I don't want to have happen is I try to renegotiate when the car arrives and the dealer says hey well we have 10 other people lined up for this car at this price if you don't want it. Bye, Felicia.
