Default Buying new 2018 gt3

All the dealers that I call tell me that the gt3 really isn’t for sale. I think I found a dealer that has one in stock. Are they for sale or are they being saved for great customers of the store? Can one get a discount on a 2018 or are people seeing msrp or higher? The cars are on the road so someone must be selling these things! Please help me out!!

Nothing is msrp. All dealers are asking 25-30k over msrp.

gettinf an allocation is impossible this late in the game.

tour best bet is to buy one used.

I laughed when I read this. More of a reflection of how much Porsche has us by the *****.

They are available but not at MSRP and sure as heck not at a discount. Production is ending shortly but there are several nicely specced used examples on the market, some of which have reasonable ADMs. Now is actually a great time to buy as come spring I expect the market will look very different.

There is a GT3 allocation for sale at 20k over in classified. That is your best bet at this point.

Definitely no discount and will be hard to get a configurable allocation but it seems like a couple are out there

Don't listen to dealer BS if you are willing to consider a used .2 GT3, as there are a good number on the market with low miles. Not a bad time to be a buyer IMO. If I was in your shoes I'd negotiate on a handful that you find to your liking, and whittle the ADM down as far as you can go. Don't relent because the dealers sure won't either, cash talks and and bs walks!

Oh and it's a hell of a car you are going to love it
