there aren't any near term allocations for a Turbo S. If you want one now, you gotta pay. Same supply issues as the gt3 and ... pretty much everything at the moment.

I hear ya brother. It’s nuts out there but things are settling a bit. A bit. Lumber has dropped to a 1/3 of what it was in May. It’s a start. Hopefully steel and other commodities settle in a bit also.
Just be careful around these parts talking about building a custom home however. You might upset the resident Wealth Police. Lol

The amazing thing is that my understanding is the typical markup for a 911 is around 12.5% from invoice which is around $31k of profit for the dealer from MSRP on a $250,000 turbo S. Thus with decreased supply they are trying to make enough profit on one car to stay profitable as when supply was plentiful. That said in the past Turbo S were sitting on many lots for months and it wad easy to get discounts on them. Ie My past two TTS (991.1 and 991.2) I got heavy discounts on 7-10% and even got a little off (1.5%) my my custom built 992 turbo S last fall.

I keep hearing guys say that lumber has come down a bunch, but remember, those are futures. Lumber is still high in the store and will be for awhile until they get rid of their overpriced inventory. They are always quick to raise prices, but very slow to lower them. DAMHIK.

I know of a few 992 Touring spots that went for $100k ADM - which I think is crazy but at the same time these cars just wont price at or near where the 991.2 Touring's are. So its not crazy to see how they slot above the $225-250k 991.2 prices.

The beta testers will always pay the highest ADMs.

Of course they did, they know that there are a lot of desperate buyers who are willing to pay hefty ADMs and there's a lack of allocations so they'll wait. As time goes along, more cars will come and there will be less desperate buyers so ADMs will come down.

Giving up potential tax savings of the trade if I go the final route but I don't want to have any regrets, as I plan on keeping the winning car for a long time. Nothing for certainty like driving them both back to back.
