My whole point about the dealer side is that my goal one day is to be a P dealer and my focus will always remain on customer relationships and overall sense of community with the store. I couldn't sleep at night if I was one of the dealers that people constantly harangue on here for being d bags.
And C.J., please put me on the list for the first RS allocation at your new dealership when it opens, whatever version it is when that happens. It is the only car I would give up my GT3 for, and I do not have the kind of FU money to pay over MSRP for it, but I will be loyal as hell to your store!
Thx,
TT

If you spend 15-20k on a GT3 you are WAY past a stock RS on track. The 'lowly' 3.8 will show it's butt to an equally driven RS with the right suspension set up, Dundon Motorsports Headers, trofeo-r tires, and maybe some weight taken off the car substituting a real race seat and harnesses.
With the Dundon Headers, I'd hazard to say you're up at least 40WHP. The suspension set up (you could go full tractive DSC for 8k or so) and better tires (19" hoosiers or stock sized trofeoR) would be worth the 1.5-2sec gap

Car does have clear bra and GMG rear center so price is actually below $70k+ over and that's the BUY IT NOW PRICE. I'm sure if someone stepped up with $275k-$280k the car would be theirs.

Food for thought.
Since 95% of these are at dealers I was curious what one could gain by buying from a private person to be registered in TX. Using the Standard Presumptive Value, it would be ~$9k in taxes on the one in AZ.

many dealers are into ONE shot suckers. witness my signature.
they will have to get 20+ suckers to cover the profit lost on me.
but then again in the greater Bay Area a lot of young bucks with no kids wife and a broken HP12c.... can't figure out how to count money... watch them trying to figure out how to amortize a given loan amount, sweating bullets.. so plenty of suckers.. some even pay me $5800 per momth for a 700sf studio.... I rest my case, I'm I creek f that rent to 9000. maybe then he will have no money left for RS premium hahaha.... back to my meds.

Not eBay, but here is a notable high water mark. Barney asking $419k, sticker of $199.5k. A cool markup of $220k. L F-ING O L Same dealer has a Lava RS asking $375, so they are quite the believers in the purple premium.

Yes, yes, but it's just an ASKING price, I'm sure they would be open to negotiating a reasonable deal.

It's not that you don't pay the tax completely. If its from a dealer they use the dealer's stated price for tax, 6.25% in TX. A private party sale in TX, if you fill in the form correctly, will use the SPV which is already calculated for the clerk. I entered the VIN/miles from that one in AZ and the state spits out a SPV of $140,900.
Actually I was wrong in the previous post, they use 80% of SPV even if you paid $100 for it. So well over 10K saved in p2p. I know some sneeze at that much and I should start a nose wiping company
I assume you're in Cali? Is there no sales tax for a p2p sale?

My last few toys that I have sold went to folks from NV. I put the item on sale at MSRP and they still buy it to avoid taxes. Last sale was a 15 BMW R1200GS Adv which I sold @ MSRP. Before that a Truck. Love the NV folks. They dont even ask for discount. Very down to earth people.

BUY IT NOW price got reduced to $60k+ over now for this LAVA RS...
http://www.ebay.com/itm/191796801278?forcerRptr=true&item=191796801278&viewitem=
If I liked Lava and didn't mind PCCB and front lift, I'd probably be thinking about pulling the trigger on this car.
