It's crazy how hostile you guys are for me posting simple data points and having the very normal opinion that sports cars depreciate

I do have a better relationship than most, other than the MSRP crowd, as I have a decent relationship that will give me the lowest ADM's of anyone here...unless everyone is making up high adm's they pay

The ride on the 991.2 really is unbelievably stiff, the no frunk is definitely a big drawback.

The bigger drawback of the frunk for me is the fact u got hot radiator air going straight to your lungs with your windows down.....I really don't think that can be good for anyone

2. launched the e-commerce company (you may have heard of it) I still run today with 1 other guy in 2017 @28 did 5 million year 1 and have since done over 100 million in revenue since
3. Launched a marketing agency about 2 years ago and I run that along side my e-commerce company and that does about 2 million a month, own the majority of that company

I must be a real dumb entitled millennial right? I literally founded 3 successful companies and work 70+ hours a week pal. Get off my nuts

I only come here to give sound advice instead of the lemming ADM is forever bogus mentality. This forum is my guilty pleasure when I need a break lol
based on this comment you shouldn't be sweating a couple hundred grand here and there

my trust fund keeps getting in the way of all of my track days and relationships. Damn, such a pity for me.

The last one was pretty unusable on the street as is, the new one seems to be almost completely unusable. Basically a cup car
25 over on a new GT3RS? Post proof

I find the ride quality of the 991.2 3RS to be ok on the road, at least for 95% of the roads I drive on.

In the 992 3RS, hot air coming into the cabin when windows are down doesn't seem to be a big problem, or at least not many are complaining about it.

The fact that it doesn’t have a frunk and you have to relocate the tool kit from the glove box isn’t really relevant on this car. It’s a toy, not transportation. Few will use this car as a daily. It’s a fun toy. I suspect most are bought at MSRP.

Car purchase history matters but I was more so alluding to your incredibly low likability and your continuous spewing of BS....age aside, haven't you started multiple 9-figure businesses from scratch?? I've never seen a more accurate avatar.

This hot air into the cabin business is something I haven't experienced at all. If anything, this car is the most aerodynamically sound 911 I've experienced, no thunderous shuddering of your helmet at 100+mph. The need for wind deflectors is gone.

Car is super comfortable even for long 500+ mile commutes to the track. Ask me how I know.

That is one of the reasons why the "want" factor is not high for me with the 992 GT3RS....it's only a track car for me and I would not drive it around town because it's too in your face and would get way too much unwanted attention. I used to do 25-30 track days a year but as I've gotten busier with real estate so I can't do weekend track days which means I can only do like 8-10 track days a year hence the lower "want' factor for the car. If i was doing 25-30 track days a year then I'd probably be more willing to pay a higher ADM. For the money with ADM, I must rather buy a Ferrari and actually enjoy it around town, take it on some canyon runs, and a few track days here and there. Besides that, I really enjoy tracking the mid-engine Cayman platform as I find it more rewarding and fun to go fast in it hence why I had a HUGE "want" factor for the GT4RS and that is my primary track car now.

My situation is somewhat similar. I’m not able nor even desirous to do as many track days as I used to, and I have good local roads for spirited driving, so my track cars also have to be fun road cars. For those criteria, 992 GT3 and 4RS are a better fit for me than 992 3RS. 991.2 3RS is also a better fit than 992 3RS because it costs less, a bit less flashy, and it has a frunk.

So you got into the real estate business too?

Had the Mecum auction on TV in the background. 22 GT3 wing, 6MT, PCCB, Sofas, racing yellow 83mi sold for $250k. Not sure what the auction fee is.

There is a GT3RS coming up later. edit 23 RS, Artic Gray, WP, sofas, iron brakes, 265 mi, no sale at $475k

I’m calling bs on the 25k over for this situation. If you had a relationship it would be msrp. If not it would be market adm.
