PEC car with a replaced engine for MSRP? That sounds...nuts. Unless its a 1 of 1, your only spec, and a forever car...

I wouldn’t do it unless a significant discount. As mentioned above, there will most likely be wear on drivetrain and PCCB, so even if within parameters, accelerated wear, and the in-service date was in 2019, so a year down on the warranty. Never titled, so no CPO. There are enough tourings out there especially at around MSRP. I’d pick one of those any day.

Possibly advanced transmission and suspension wear due to the hard miles as well. Gotta be the right price...

I drove this car at PEC when it had about 800mi. I wouldn't buy it at that price, but everything has a price. The replacement engine doesn't bother me so much, but I'd be concerned about other stuff like transmission, wheel hubs, etc which isn't covered under CPO or normal warranty. Those be wear/tear items.
I'd have to be at least 10-15k under MSRP to even think about it.

$15k over MSRP. For a car that's been flogged to death at PEC LA. So $15k over for a USED Touring, that's been subject to countless laps at the hands of ham fisted amateur drivers who paid to beat the snot out of someone else's car? $15k over?
What am I missing here? This is not a 911 R or a Speedster.

Jeez these things are holding crazy value. I got offered a brand new untitled winged 2018 gt3 dec 2018 build for 35k under the 176k sticker like 9 months ago, so 141k....I am sure if you look for long enough someone will give you a good price. I heard this pandemic has been making prices a little crazy tho
I just sold my .2 - 2 weeks ago and there was a lot of interest from all parts of the US- including other Dealers.

You're making the same point that I am. It's not their problem so they do not care about treating the cars in a good manner. These are not the kind of cars that I would want to buy, they've not been treated well. I've been to these kinds of events and spoken to the people that run them. The cars are maintained for sure, but definitely run very hard.

I totally disagree. I also purchased a 2014 GT3 with a replacement engine that came with the 10yr extended 100k mile warranty and the car was flawless. I still think those 14 GT3 models with the extended warranty are a great value right now.
