Focking stealerships!

This is another reason why I will continue to buy from private party sellers and glad that I'm a late adapter and not a beta tester.

Maybe this is the Dealer spreading rumors that they will be ceasing prod. in Feb. Capitalism at its best but customers probably only buy once

We should have a sticky thread with the names of all the dealers who are going over MSRP so we know never to frequent their business.

I must say. I paid sticker price. Not a penny more. My dealership is small and very friendly. They treat me very well

I saw a friend in the Central US wait for 2 years for his 2007 GT3 RS (maybe it was an 08) but it was a small dealership so they gave him back his $5k deposit and gave his car to someone who paid WAY over MSRP.
Wait till the RS come out some dealers will act like its shark week! $40k will be chump change.

Very greedy dealers! It seems like the premium for the GT3 has increased after the stop sale issue. I called two dealers a couple of weeks ago. One wanted $20k over and the other $30K!

But try asking dealers to buy your GT3 and what they will offer. Beverly Hills said they have zero interest in my gt3 that will arrive soon. Two other dealers offered me $135k for a Msrp car at $150k.

Yes most dealers could care less about having long term customers they just want a fast buck.

You have to remember that car dealers are independent businesses. Some are great, some average and some suck. Just because a couple of dealers are asking over MSRP does not mean they all are. I would say the vast majority people on Rennlist that actually bought one, paid MSRP.

I've been super happy with my small and family owned dealership who have been nothing but honorable in all their dealings with me over the years. No different with the GT3.

Good deal. You are only the second person that I heard paid under MSRP. I'm sure there are a few others. I'm going to pretend that I got a $1610 discount since my car went up in price but I do not have to pay the increase!

I bought a 918 though so that could have been a factor
