Hearing that gave me a lot of confidence with my purchase.
He was spot-on.
Though, there are various metrics for 'performance', some of them subjective: lap time at various tracks, acceleration, braking, sound, fun, etc.

True.

And dollar for dollar, nothing comes close to the $28,500 that I paid for my 2004 VW R32
1 of 5000.

Dodo nailed it is correct. Diablo, you mention Treynor and I can tell you I have personally owned just about every exotic from almost every brand except Lambo and the GT3 is a significant value compared to them all. Think of this, I built my first 458 almost 13 years ago. Lower mile 458s still command $200K+...roughly the same price as the GT3. the 458 is 4 iterations old for Ferrari. Move on to Mclaren, Maser, and others and there is nothing near the pound for pound price point to match it.

So is $30k ADM for a Euro Delivery GT3 Touring allocation from a dealer I've been a customer of for 6 years reasonable these days?

Mine was the only one.

Is this a new allocation that dropped recently? Pretty good deal.

They have a decent BBQ down in San Juan Capistrano, not Texas BBQ but not bad for liberal CA cows.

Speaking of BBQ . . . good to see that our resident BBQ dealer is taking care of their valued customers on used Tourings with 1,097 miles.
The MSRP dealer.

Last time I checked this is a USED car and NO DEALER will sell for a used car for under market.

I was told by someone very high up at Porsche yesterday and very much in the know…

”prices will fall off a cliff next year” Their exact words, not mine and speaking to GT/special Porsche 911’s (even ST) specifically

don’t shoot the messenger, the fact this person told me this surprised even myself…

Take that info as you want or think it’s blasphemy, don’t matter. I’ll enjoy my cars all next year no matter what they’re worth.
