They'll take your $$


Just like any other business, support the business that wants your $$ and you don't have to beg to take it.

Sure do, considering I have an econ degree. I also know that most luxury goods (an RS is a luxury good) do not have inelastic demand....necessities like food, gasoline, and even cigarettes (due to the addictive natural of the customers) have inelastic demand.

Enjoy these amazing machines.
I bet you the majority of current GT3/RS buyers didn't realize that (I know that I didn't).

Wait until you see more days like these. The honeymoon will be over.




Martin, your dealer will be throwing in free clear side markers and a cover with your RS!

They closed down most of the motocross facilities in Southern California. Indian Dunes and Saddleback were my favorites. Now most places are set up like Supercross tracks. I prefer to ride desert and the "vet tracks" as the Supercross tracks take their toll on my quads.

Not all people with money are smart. I personally would wait to buy, don't feel like catching a falling knife. The past week or so you sell the rips, not buy the dips.

Nope if i could time the market i'd be one of those 918 and P1 owners.
But it's not hard to see the trends and dabble in the future.
Sell now and you're just among the sheep.
Hold and build those positions, and build leverage.

I test drove the 570s last week.

The car looks great, sounds ok, steering feels excellent - BUT - the damn turbo lag kills the whole experience. Such a shame it's not a naturally aspirated v8 with 500hp.

you should come ride with me and my buddies at Cahuilla Creek in Anza- really awesome vet track. some doubles etc but mostly long bowl corners and elevation that allows for a little more flow rather than just pinning the throttle in 3rd/4th.
