no one can predict. Market could tank or gradually decline. China could invade Taiwan and no more chips. AP could retire and Porsche could push more into hybrid / EV…

don’t forget monkeypox

if you feel good about the price, do it

I just canceled an allocation - at msrp-- for the new 911 CAbriolet GTS America mostly because somedays I thought it was really cool looking and other days I thought it was really ugly. Probably will be sorry when I see one in person--or in a couple years when it
is worth a lot more than MSRP. Only building 100 of these for the states. With options the MSRP was right around $220,000 . Now back on the list for a GTS Coupe instead -- maybe by Spring. Did I make a mistake or avoid losing a lot of money?

You asking questions no-one, including yourself, can answer or predict.

It’s a hideous looking car that only Michael *** would buy because he has mattress money, and likes crazy combos.

Not trolling, i am just posting here because its most active forum in RL. And why you so attached do 992? Its just another car you will trade in once 994 comes out.

Agree with this. Saw it in person (sat in it in fact) a couple of months ago during the PCA gathering in Kalahari. If Porsche would have stuck to the 'less is more' mantra they may have had a winner. This is an easy skip IMO.

You can take out the brand and product name out of this video and we would think they are talking about Porsche. This has been going on in Rolex world for at least 5 years so the answer is a big No. Millions will still buy a Rolex or 2 if not multiple. That's why they do it.
