Painted sills, 18-ways, and black door handles? I'd be surprised is a dealer specced this to resell for maximum profit.

If so, they should probably revisit their business model.

Weird. I am on the list (towards the end of the list) at msrp at this dealer. They called and asked if I wanted this silver one but I passed due to PDK. They expressed that they were proud to offer at msrp whereas the other dealer in the area had ADM of 30K.
I expect they will try to get me to pay ADM when/if an allocation opens up for me. Seems like there wont be much of an ADM at that point in the market though.

Ideas:

Wife threatened to cut off husbands *****

Guy lost a bunch of $$ in Vegas

Wife found out no back seats

Wife never got her Hermes bag as promised

Car showed up without keyless entry

Dealer ordered wrong color

No leather dash

Looks too juvenile with rear wing

Was upset when finding out color was not PTS

Wife hates bucket seats

Buyer thought it was told it was as limited as the R

Buyer got pissed did not have Burmester

Buyers girlfriend threatened to dump him for a guy with a Ferrari

Buyer thought he was buying a McLaren.

Buyer found out a Tesla can take him at a stoplight.

Did not like ugly black door handles. Yes — worst option ever

Etc ..

They could not get the ADM on the front side, so just ordered the car themselves and hoped the frenzy would follow. One thing I have observed, most guys want their own spec.
You forgot "Buyer had another business opportunity and needed the cash".

I was on the list for an rs and never got my allocation because I wouldn't pay over. Have heard from multiple people who have had their name on lists there for years(like 5) and never got a car. I Took all my deposits away. I wouldn't hold my breath. The gm there has no idea what she is doing. That's why managers keep quitting on her.

If you ever been to Tyson's and the nearby exceptionally well to do McLean and Potomac neighborhoods, it is (unfortunately) likely they will find a wealthy (money no object) buyer who wont bat an eye at the 30k adm. Just a matter of time.

Sad, that this car will likely be a C&C garage queen

After the person pays 30k over and takes it to cars and coffee in great falls

"...nobody was hurt!"

If this happened at Cars n Coffee or Sunset GT in Los Angeles, somebody would have gotten hurt with or w/out kids in the backseat.



30K ADM on that GT3. Someone will buy it.

My dealer is getting in on the fun. They have a GT Silver with 190 miles on it for sale. Sticker $158, but asking whopping $198K! Glad I'm on their good side and get mine at MSRP in January!

Lol. I don’t do C&C unless it’s Jerry Seinfeld offering me a lift.
