IMO Chip and other supply chain caused shortages will be alleviated and car lots will be full soon enough. We'll be back to dealers undercutting each other for sales. Obviously Porsche is a slightly different market but no availability of new cars is keeping prices of used cars up regardless.
The thing that complicates things with things like the 992 GT3/Touring/RS is the ability to only produce a certain number of cars which is probably less than demand for said car.
I think that people who bought cars at the very top of the market will be affected but in my defense, I know nothing.

I will pay for your listing if you legitimately post your 991 GT3 for $1,000,000.00

Seriously! I'm in all honesty happy for my fellow rennlisters... I want to laugh at the dealers and the market. I wish everyone listed their 911's for outrageously stupid prices so I can sit behind my computer and laugh.

I think prices are locked high and will only get higher for high quality relatively low production unique high performance ICE cars. By 2030 there won’t be any new gas powered Porsches available for sale at the dealership, 911s will be the last to leave production.. at this point prices will really go through the roof as the EV revolution sets in and production is completely over for gas powered cars. These cars will only become more and more valuable. For the first time ever specific gas powered cars are becoming a good financial investment! Lol. But honestly I think it’s true. We’ll see.
I know that we like to think that our cars will become very collectable like the '73 RS, but I think that paradigm is changing fast. In twenty years there will be a glut of static museum cars. You can't drive them, but you will have the exciting luxury of washing and polishing them every six months whether they need it or not.

It's going to be more than 10 years before gas stations start disappearing. When demand starts to drop, we may see the opposite as capacity will exceed demand. Of course those that want to save us from the awful ICEs will also likely try jacking up the taxes on gas, so that is a wild card.

Prices will eventually drop to more reasonable levels, but production capacity isn't going to dramatically increase to replace all the lost production over night. Even when the 992 cars start arriving, the market isn't going to suddenly be flooded with them. I drove by a Porsche dealer the other day that usually has around 70-80 new cars on the ground. They had single digit new cars. The dealer I buy from told me they don't expect some relief until at least end of summer. If you want a new 911 this summer,, options will be much more limited than in the past. It's going to take time for the supply to catch back up.

Post-pandemic visits to two Ballparks (one east, one west coast) no cash transactions anymore: all food purchases etc are done via phone apps, and eCash (credit card, Apple Pay).
Several restaurants I visited while traveling recently also no longer print menus (scan a QR code and order online from your table, server brings food) and were doing MAMMOTH takeout volume as well. No more manual order taking, no more making change, no more ‘manning’ the register.

Yes and no. If you think gas is expensive now, just imagine what you will pay in about 10 years when demand goes down and filling stations and suppliers start disappearing.
