I believe he is referring to your statement "There has been much banter about tons of .2 RS cars available at MSRP?"
One could argue this is the false assertion.

 

Apart from this banter I've always found it interesting that people "develop a relationship with a dealer" and then buy the next car "at MSRP" or "discount" but get absolutely poached on the cars they are continually trading in...its like perpetually paying an ADM...

 

 

I get the OP's point. RL would have you believe it's easy to get GT cars w/o an ADM. It's not. I'm a buyer (see my sig.) and it's a fight to get these cars. Just is. As much as RL wants us to will away the ADM it's the current reality.

 

 

lol yeah i'm not sure i get the purpose of this thread. i figured op paid high ADM and was looking to feel better but idk

 

too many brokers, broker-wannabes, realestate brokers, Instagram PTS experts, internet kids out there that want a piece of it other than dealers.

 

I agree with OP. I had been looking for a 2RS for quite awhile. I was a serious buyer depending on the car. I never came close to MSRP from any seller. I was offered cars from $125-175k over MSRP including the dealer that I bought a new 2017 TTS, 2018 GT3 and 2019 GT3RS from. The availabiliy from my dealer was zero cars.(Beachwood Porsche). I love cars but wasn't going to pay that high an ADM. I did find a flip in Conn through a local connection that was 2 weeks old right after Christmas. The car MSRP was $342K with full body wrap. I bought it for $415k delivered to Michigan with the plastic still on the interior. I could live with that ADM and today it was 40 degrees outside. I took the car out and had a ball in it. It's like nothing else I've owned. This was the first time I drove it but I even enjoyed just looking at it in my garage. At first I put a car cover on it but took that off after a couple of days just so that I could stare at it. The cars that have sold on RL lately have all been in the 450-450 range if they have the WP with Mg wheels. Sometimes you just have to jump in and just do it or you'll wait forever looking for a bargain. The bargain cars just aren't that desirable and I looked at all of them I could find listed. They are usually non-WP, radio delete, sofa seats, or without Mg wheels. I did make about $15K over the MSRP on my GT3RS so I figure I got the perfect 2RS for me about $50K ADM. I feel like I hit the lotto and have the car I want and enjoying it now. Thats worth more to me than seeing a few extra 00's on an investment statement. "Life is short and there's no fun in the box".

 

 

You get it.

I've numbered your questions and assumptions.
Thanks for taking the time to comment but I feel you should have started with number 4.

4. Firstly, anyone looking for contentment on this platform needs to explore other avenues to nirvana. Secondly, your inability to understand the issue relates directly to your incorrect assumptions which more often than not are veiled as questions. I'll try to respond in the reverse numbered order.

3. Yes to .2 RS and its wonderful. NO to your assumption about me paying ADM... I never have, but have absolutely no issue with anyone paying it. I have an issue with dealers charging it on new cars... BUT ADM is not the issue or point to my post. The issue is quite simple, tstafford has put it succinctly and probably better than I did.

2. Yeah I'm really upset at others getting the car at MSRP... what a moronic question/assumption! I don't consider myself a GOLDEN BOY and unique. I and the group I'm involved with actively pass on MSRP allocations that we're offered to our members.

1. Read my response to #3...


Point yourself over to my response to Golden Boy. Man I feel odd about typing that handle...

 

 

 

You can't believe everything you read on the Internet.

Even less so on Rennlist.
