Default Do you guys think this R is a good deal?

300 miles on the clock so essentially a new car. My 'email special blast' price $325K. One big detractor for RL folks is sofas, but I have them on my GTS and actually like them It does have single mass flywheel. If I could get it for about $300K, is this a fair deal? Thanks in advance for replies.

Jim on the website it stated that the internet price is
$349,991, how did you get 325 k ?

Have you checked out this one ? https://rennlist.com/forums/vehicle-...reen-smfw.html (although it says pending might not hurt to ask)

Thanks for the reply Jack. I tried to correct after I posted. Yes website says 349K but the 'special email blast pricing' I guess knocked it down to 325. I did not see that listing from Super Quant who I think is a good guy.

$300k sounds about right for a low mileage R with sofas and no single mass ... but you better really love the spec and plan to keep it a long time because a car without those two options will be hard to sell (as the current seller is discovering). The SMF is arguably the most important option on this car, and the houndstooth buckets not far behind.

The build sheet is one of the pictures, it clearly states it has the dual mass flywheel.

If it had buckets and a LWFW, $300 would be a good deal.

A great car to drive, but not so much for a car and coffee.

Buy it and use it, please!
They are way too many Rs collecting dust.

I think if you are looking for a car to buy and use than go to the new GT3.2. Looks like a good price at 300,000. The R is still a limited numbered car. Someday if held and driven a limited amount will still be
a car collector's will want. And a new GT3 will save you at least 100,000 and you will still have just as much fun driving.

As a data point...the superquant car could have been bought for 310k.

Why make buying decisions based on price? The price of something doesn't really matter, because it does not factor in the benefits to you. Make buying decisions based on the value of something, since that takes into account the price + the benefits.

Then ask yourself; "do you want it"? and "does it fit my budget"?

If something offers you value and fits within your budget, the price matters little.

It takes a while to get to this point in life, but makes it a lot less stressful.

And all good salespeople know the reverse is true when selling something. ie- focus on the benfits to the customer, and don't sell on price.

Just my opinion, but since you asked, NO I don't think it's a great deal. I think a good deal would be 275

That is what I am wondering as I do plan on driving the car. My take based on everying I have read so far is that the R is more than its parts and is a better more engaging street car than a GT3T.....but I'm not sure its $100K better. I'm sure the collector value will drop after I put 10K miles on the clock.
