PTS, FAL, Buckets and PCCB puts you over 194k, without any additional eye candy or leather.

My build is at 209k, but pretty loaded up. Carbon roof, bucket seats, PCCB, blue stitching, lift. A bit more than I thought it would cost, but it is what it is.

This has been the case with the 992 911.

with a light touch on options, my configuration is at $178k - I could actually be done with the GT3 between the questionable looks and the huge price increase . . . sad; I know Porsche won't miss me but its getting a bit outrageous, even by my standards

maybe I would not be saying this if the front and rear looked a little more traditional

So the extended leather package asks for a color but doesn't say what for. I am assuming it's for the stitching color but it says individual colors as if they mean the leather colors? Anyone get this?

Well, under $200k before tax, licensing and PPF.

My conservative build has me at $189k.

The Shark Blue exterior and interior alone will set you back over $10k.

I remember building out a 991.2 GT3 at around $165k.

I'm sorry, but for anyone who finds this price increase that off-putting, it might be time to consider whether you're in the wrong sandbox. There's still time to get a Carrera.

The signs were on the wall. Some were saying options were going to be more expensive with a substantial base increase price based on 997 to 991 price jumps. A lot of people refused to believe it. Don't know why there are surprised pikachu faces now.

I configured mine to $208k. If I wasn't waiting for the RS I'd be going with that build.

Cost of ownership is higher on Carrera.

It’s great that you have the luxury of paying whatever they ask, but some of us aren’t as fortunate (or talented, hard working, etc )

It doesn’t matter how much $$$ you have or you make - it is prudent to look at what you get back for the $$$ you are laying out. 992 is a considerable increase in price vs 991.2 and if you already own one, not sure if the upgrade is warranted compared to the additional cost.

Now if you don’t have a GT3 - the new car price is not out of line when you got used ones with 5-10k miles asking for $170-180k.

I'm not knocking Porsche for raising the price this high though. I believe in the free market system and clearly demand is outstripping supply for the time being. I wonder though if demand at that price point will be sustained as the hype dies down and ADMs go away.
rice & beans not that much. most big tix items are.
