Paid $49k for a Raptor in 2012. Drove it 35k miles/4 years and traded it in for $42k in Nov last year. Hard to beat as a DD.
Not interested in the new one. The whole thing with the raptor is attitude. That went out of the window with the Eco boost.

I may have paid OVER MSRP for my RS, but anyone who paid OVER MSRP for a Raptor is a complete idiot and deserves to lose their money.

Maybe due to the lack of production capacity and the weak currency, they won't be building any Canadian GT3s...

So it's okay for you to pay over MSRP, but anyone else that does it is a complete idiot?

Whats wrong with paying over MSRP if you have the money and can't get the car at MSRP?Back when Boxster 1st came out I could hardly afford any car but I did pay the $5K over and got the car I wanted. Stop beating the dead horse boys.

To answer your question, take this statement however you would like, my dealer has been very good to me and out of respect to them, I would rather not disclose the specifics of my personal deal.
Thank you for your response. But the question should be whether you have been good to your dealer and not the other way around. Furthermore, I will assume you paid over MSRP which I don't have a problem with. But to someone like me I would have a problem. I have bought 9 Porsche's in 16 years from my dealer. In addition I purschased a RRS from a Landrover dealer which is owned by the corp that owns the Porsche dealership.

I have not heard from my dealer regarding a GT3 allocation other than an email asking if I want one. If they offer me an allocation I expect it to be at MSRP. I have paid my dues.

Nothing.

It's only an issue for those who don't have enough money.

Just something to think about it.
