If there was no cars and coffee or Bring a Trailer none of these cars would be going over retail.

Well, I would suggest that the engineering department of a certain tech company in Silicon Valley could buy out the entire 992.1 GT3 car production (2,900) by a factor of nearly 3-fold.

Cars and Coffee is just a symptom.
Bring a Trailer is merely a platform.

Wealth is the primary driver.

I guess we will be able to spot the new money when a 992 GT3 RS is spun out of control onto the sidewalk leaving the first car show this Spring.

You can see that change in the posts here.
Used to be the GT sections were full of posts on air pressures, tires, brake pads, camber settings and the like.
Now the GT sections are polluted with posts on ADM's, deviated stitching, PTS and so forth.

You couldn't pay me enough to go to C&C. There are only a few things that I wake up early for....1) to trade the stock market, 2) to head out to a canyon run, and 3) to head out to the track.

Unfortunately as the car prices and ADMs go up there is more and more of that BS. That being said, I better see you and your GT4RS at Spring Mountain this year.

Did you end up getting yourself a GT4RS? I'm like a little kid waiting for the candy store to open up waiting for mine to come in, I don't think I wanted a car more. haha

Ditto, I've been to one and was asking myself what the hell am I doing here because this is boring as fvck. Like you said not in so many words, C&C is a big poser fest filled with owners who know very little about their cars and like showing off.

Jeez. Luft8 is the mother of all C&C's and it was freaking awesome seeing that many Porsches from all time periods in one place. Then again, I've only been club racing for 10+ years and don't know jack about cars, especially Porsches.
