I can erase that post for you,I don't see where the line has been crossed when it's all on Google.
You can charge all you want,but you won't be regarded very well by any enthusiast community.
I don't believe it was the fact you shared my public info.... It was the fact that others feel you did it with malicious intent.

In fact, I am not a SPONSOR for rennlist. SO I am not allowed to share my personal info as a Salesman. I am not allowed to "advertise". So when i participate in a conversation I have to be careful about my verb-age. Hence why I don't "introduce" myself. I don't want to share every vehicle I have sitting on my lot. I just want to participate like a normal individual. Learn more about the brand from "enthusiasts" and share any knowledge that I have from an insiders perspective.



Again, if the enthusiast community wants to buy a regular car at or below MSRP its no big deal. The GT3RS is not a normal car.

In fact the manufacturer actually "SUGGESTS" the price on the car. So anytime I sell for under MSRP or you shop around to pay below. You are (hypothetically) hurting the Porsche brand and depreciating other "enthusiasts" vehicles by manipulating the "market value". But we obviously don't need to talk about that.

The enthusiasts don't have to buy my car. duuuuuh. SO simple, get one somewhere else...... but if you can't. You know where one is. From one car guy to another, at this point, you seem a little more out of touch with reality than the car salesman. OUCH dude. Looks like it's time to close up shop. Have a good night.

Not the first time I have heard that complaint. Not the most optimal color choices for the interior, throughout the exterior color line up.

But otherwise I've seen a huge amount of Lava Orange and White.... Personally , no questions asked ULTRAVIOLET would be my color. Lotta guys will talk about how it would be cool. Smaller percentage will actually order it. I'd rock it for sure. That car screaming at the track, purple flash screaming by. YUP! Not the color for someone trying to be low key.

The dealership owns the cars. They can use em for target practice if they want. ('merica!) If someone missed the boat, but still wants the car, can afford 250k to get the car they want...... more power to them. Just wait till the boat load of cars that dealers are spec'ing hit the market and people pay a bunch over sticker on a vehicle built the way THEY DIDN'T EVEN WANT. No one puts a gun to anyone's head. Free will gentleman. If people are so concerned about the dollar amount STOP BUYING DEPRECIATING ASSESTS! hahaha Some people need a reality check. I'm sure the majority of the individuals buying these cars operate on a little economic theory called "Supply and Demand". I'm not looking for a debate on "good business practices" and a few guys totally have it figured out. In fact most do and don't complain about it. But damn, alotta fellas sure do take this business personal. Cheers everyone! Happy Friday. Drive Fast. Drive Safe.
If this is how you want to participate as an enthusiast I rest my case...

From Porsche.com "Nevertheless, the new 911 GT3 RS is also capable of slowing the pace down: the PIT SPEED button on the center console activates a speed limiter, cooling the car’s temperament at a single stroke."

I think pit speeds are usually limited to a max of 50-55mph depending on the track. My bet is that this will be adjustable in the toggle menu and if you hit the console button it will limit speeds no matter how far you press the gas pedal. much like hitting the rev limiter when you hit the adjusted speed the engine will just bounce off the revs at that speed. I think. 991 cup has one and worked nicely just hit the button out of the pits and up goes revs but before it just sort of idles at the max speed if you have the pedal down, perfect for school zones.

I ordered LO but probably would have gotten black. I am afraid to wait for PTS.

Ultraviolet will either be that rare desired color a few years later that command a premium or it will be disliked and the more popular Lava Orange will be the one.

The ultra violet seems like a dice roll as I am not sure the RS is digesting the color well with its body lines and contrasting brake color and also the lack of purple deviated stitching on the inside.

I am playing mine safe and sticking with LO with matching interior
