All talk. Believe it when I see it. But if Porsche wants me to sign a x-year contract not to sell my next GT car, sure. Sign me up.

They won't do squat. All talk by Porsche. To stop flipping, just increase production. lame.

Yes subscription. So 24 month lease and then you can buy at MSRP. This will lead to Porsche becoming the flipper

More people would voluntarily lease GT cars if Porsche offered competitive residual and money factors. They don’t.

their own dealerships are the biggest flippers! Stop them from adding ADMs first.

Agree with all statements as dealers perpetuate the flipping by offering special deals to their best customers for flipping hot models so they make their numbers and incentives on sales from Porsche...

Hilarious. For "all talk by Porsche", they have done exactly what you say is the solution -- increased production! And by a lot! Lol this place is a riot.

Looks like the 991.2 runs they got right, not a lot of profit left for anyone and a bunch available on dealer lots.

Note they've been trailing the subscription service for a year or two in Atlanta - https://www.porschepassport.com/ as soon as it's available in NY I will sign up. More options if they expand it to include GT cars at higher price too. Nice to be able to pick a car for particular day/week.

and what has happened to the values to GT cars this time around with the increase in production?

and what has happened to all the people thinking they are going to make a fortune by flipping their cars? I just offered a 2rs at Msrp. So much for flipping that car right?

you are right- this place is a riot.
