usctrojan, your definitely one of the few not drunk on the Porsche kool-aid here lol. I agree, everything is going to sticker the gt2rs is getting hit the hardest as every dealer has one and most purists dont care for turbos. They made WAY too many of them.
That being said, not to side with the people begging to have limited cars because they are all already not limited. I think porsche will not allocate anymore gt3, gt3rs or especially gt2rs when the clock strikes 2019. NOT BECAUSE THEY WANT TO, but because I think they are nervous right now about how many they built and dont want to completely crash the GT market and leave a bad taste in people mouths. This would hurt them next go around. AKA the demand is now less than supply just look at how many are for sale! I almost want to guess they build less than 2k speedsters as I dont know if they think they can fulfill that many given todays changing climate with way too many GT cars, adm's galore, and a price that will probably be north of 300k coupled with a possible recession here is bad news for them
p.s. let me be clear, no matter what happens prices are still going to drop fast on GT cars whether they stop production or not they made SO many of them

There are only too many if the demand is not there. In the overall scheme of things the production numbers of RS cars is not that many. The MSRPs are high for consumers that expect a more flashy look at these numbers. Usually takes some maturity to appreciate the quality provided, long term reliability, and relatively low depreciation that P cars provide. The performance numbers that these cars are turning around the world should be all that is needed, but P cars really all look the same and not as good as others on a poster.

I do not have an issue with deakers trying to max out their profits. Of course, I am not there to help. I want the best deal like anyone would. Porsche should have a similar policy to Ferrari which deos not allow an untitled car to sell at a premium. This woukd allieviate the issue and make us all feel better. As far as dying by the sword, most owners of dealerships that I know have fatter bank accounts than their customers.

They also still have the GT4 to roll out. My guess is demand will not be like it was in 2016. Plenty of those available at great prices on the secondary market right now and the .2 ate up a bunch of that "Manual" demand

Honestly, there's dozens of dealers that are sitting on GT2s in inventory that are looking for $75k to $150k ADMs so really nothing to see here. Let them sit on the cars for a while. Those are dealer spec'ed cars so let them learn a little lesson about greed...live by the sword, die by the sword.

This is so true! and PNH is probably the worst offender regarding ADM's!!! Yet, I still agree with usctrojangt3 regarding all his opinions about GT inventory and his comments regarding dealers asking over MSRP. Definitely in bed with the devil, lol
