2018 GT3...5k miles...car is loaded to the hilt...which I’m not so sure is a good thing or bad thing. Selling at msrp...I’m kind of tempted but the mental and Sale professional part of me has a hard time buying a used car at msrp.
thought comments and all....I’m currently searching car loans...lol

1) IMO mileage is not as important as condition and who the owner was (or how confident you feel you know the type of owner...is he or she grabbing the wheel while eating fries during launch control with < 100 miles on odo bouncing off the rev limiter on Instagram, or Dyson vacuum and toothbrush scrub after every drive and babied, or somewhere in-between)....my GT3 has 6k miles and still looks brand new because I'm probably OCD, I've seen other .2s with less than half the miles and not as great of condition. Curbed wheels, leather already really conditioned, bolster wear, marks here and there, these are things I notice FWIW. . Also I followed break-in religiously per the manual, some others do not... I wouldn't pass on a fairly priced car simply because of mileage, as their pricing seems to reflect that
2) MSRP would at least be better than most other .2 GT3s in terms of your peace of mind, as I haven't seen many advertised at MSRP. But no one likely knows what these cars are actually trading hands at since there are quite a few to choose from at the moment. And if they are asking for MSRP I for sure would push to go under a bit and see if they blink
3) Make sure you really want the car and not falling just for the hype to save yourself the headache/stress/$ (it really is an awesome car), as many have turned around quickly to move on from their .2 GT3 for whatever reason after seeking the latest and greatest. I've even thought about it myself, but talked myself off the ledge thankfully
Just my 2 cents... spec seems nice and at least you know for sure you would be getting the GT3 you wanted from Champion in this case....

I was able to score this '19 GT3RS. Car at the port, previous client backed out, I was able to step in. Weird but true story. +15K
Spec'd pretty much the way I wanted except for fire bottle. I actually like metal brakes. After break in, heading to the track at COTA in February!

Some thoughts from a nobody...

Porsche Chandler has 3 used GT3s for sale. Two are manuals IIRC. All are very nice and guys that are trading to the 3RS.

Thanks...I need PDK...left leg amputee above knee so I cant push a clutch..but I am searching still...I do like the one at Champion though...if I can get them slightly under MSRP on this 2018 5k mile car I will feel better about buying it.

Thanks for the reply....I really really want a GT3...to keep for a while...not resell it. They were asking over MSRP as you can see from the listing...they won't budget much but got it down to MSRP....I'm continuing to look but I really want LWB and PCCB brakes....most GT3 are steel brakes. I found another 2018 GT3 but in Racing Yellow....not sure about the color though. Part of the reson for this car at Champion is they will pay off my 2017 GTS and make it simple. 2 other dealers would do the same but 1 2018 GT3 got sold out from under me. My wife on the other hand is pushing hard for a Turbo S.

its the same or less than buying PCCB on a car...use red caliper...I like the red better than yellow anyways on a caliper

I like the red calipers better too... but I really want to try out pccb since I don’t track,too much anymore...if anything changes I’ll swap out for steel rotors. I wish Porsche did pccb with red calipers though!!
