It's pretty accepted these trade for ~$250Kish over sticker so can't believe an absurd story/rumor is actually posted as an article

The source is legit and very independent...

“We spoke to several Porsche specialist dealers and they confirmed the cars are commanding close to £1 million,” he said.

I don't believe that for a minute either. Asking is very different than selling. NOBODY in their right mind would pay over a million for that car, period. In fact, not even close to that. That sensationalism is what creates the traffic they want.

Bubble burst last year... See what happens at pebble auctions next month
(although jn having trouble getting camping tents within 30 miles of Carmel for less than $300/night)..

Asking is different than selling, as soon as 991.2 gt3 manual is out these things will come down

One deal does not a market make. More than one, that's a different story.

I agree....in Australia I see sooo may Porsches now just sitting with high asking prices and not selling after months on the market . GT2 are for sale like Ive never seen in my life, lots of all makes of GT3, Turbos etc....all just sitting not selling. The only ones actually sell are those that drop prices massively vs the others...all the way back to whats reasonable a couple of years ago.

A few traditional Porsche owners i know are now looking and buying beyond Porsches second hand now, as prices here for Audi R8, Aston, Lambo, Bentley Conti GT Speeds etc are a total bargain vs asking on lots of Porsches.....
