How about if we all just present info and our opinions without engaging in personal attacks? The price trends of these cars are pretty unimportant in the scheme of things, and people are taking things WAY too personally.

No, the overall point I was making was that you (and others) on here simply complain non-stop instead of offering constructive factual information. Explain to me how your work experience and MULTIPLE advanced degrees support your opinion though?

So, I'm a long time lurker who is looking to buy a 992 GT3. I've held off buying because where I am in SoCal, the ADMs got crazy/bubblelicious, and I'd rather spend my money on other things versus an ADM. This thread has been helpful since Manifold, Ascend, usctrojan and others (even Welikethetrack) have, in my opinion, provided some good perspective on the market. I'm willing to pay a little markup on a car, but if it never gets there, then so be it. I'll buy something else. The economy is probably going to continue to weaken (see Jamie Dimon's commentary today about a mild recession being a base case), and industries that have products that are directly tied to interest rates will continue to feel it. Maybe GT3s are (much) more immune but it's clear prices are going to continue going down due the Fed's mission to supress inflation, the absence of crypto money buying luxury goods, etc.
What I've not found particularly helpful are the posters who have already bought their GT3, some of whom paid ADMs, who spew vitriol to anyone who dares say anything about ADMs. As has been said, I don't get why they post in this thread. You have your car, why do you care if there are others who don't want to pay an ADM or as little of it as possible? Whether it's because you feel bad for paying it or you just think it's stupid that people don't pay one for whatever reason, that's no reason to come on here and drive out posters who provide different viewpoints. Go enjoy your car and leave this thread if you can't help but engage in attacks that don't add anything.

well Whadaaya know. Another sideline lurker. If you don’t like what owners have to say then unsubscribe. I paid to be able to talk adm’s buddy. I’m invested 😏
It’s already suspect that you joined the forum 2 months ago and all your 3 posts are in the adm thread. On top of that you mention the four circle jerk adm Karen’s who add absolutely nothing to the 992 forum. they contribute zero.
good perspective 🤣. Go back to page 1 and look at what ADM’s were, call a dealer and see what they are right now.
I’ll save you some time.
Nothings changed.

If you were trying to get into one of these cars, for real, then the “msrp only, boycott adm” folks never once gave you good advice. At this point, you’ll have missed an entire generation and be no better off for the next one either

And we all know the fantastic lap time and visceral experience that driving $$$ can provide.

The choice isn’t between $$$ in the bank vs 992 GT3, it’s between keeping the car you have vs ponying up a big premium to get a 992 GT3 vs buying some other car which may provide a better ratio of fun/$$$.

I will just say that in 2023 it's wild that someone can't just go snap a picture of their car/upload an existing picture in a matter of seconds. This isn't 1995. It's literally 3 clicks. Someone could to ask me to take a picture of the back of my LWBS and I can do it in under 30 seconds.

Either that, or you just like hearing yourself talk. The topic isnt about "already having a fun car". The topic is about buying a 992 GT3 and what the ADM's have been.
