Look, we're at 3,000 VIN's already "issued" for 992.2 GT3 production which is a large amount since the 992.1 GT3 saw a total of 5,400~ cars produced for North America. Market is definitely getting flooded but we don't know what the future holds. Also many 992.1 GT3 owners have no desire for a 992.2 GT3 because it now has a digital dash, heavier/less raw car and on the tourings you can't get buckets with a different color leather interior. That's the negative portion in terms of supply and outlook.
Here is the positive, Porsche may slow down production immensely because they have to shift it to the 992.2 GT3 Cab and 992.2 3RS. Also with the 992.2 3RS being a turbo motor it could mean that the 992.2 GT3 is the last NA GT3. If this is true then as soon as that news is released prices will hold steady or potentially skyrocket. Also, what other car are you able to buy that's 500hp+ and manual that is brand new? Nothing.
Life is short and if you're sitting on the sidelines because you're afraid to lose 20-30k on a 300k+ car then this probably isn't the car or hobby for you. Cars aren't investments and you only have a certain amount of time on earth so buy what your heart desires and invest money elsewhere instead of worrying about 20-30k in depreciation.

i did get some insight on future cars, the speedster and the gt2rs will be the last 992 generation cars built. some of you might already know this. so if you love the na motor from the 992 now is the time to buy. as chris harris says, "if you can, you should!" (in a british accent).
you only live once and money comes and goes. i will likely end up with my 992.1 touring and not getting an allocation because the dealer i was working with for some reason thought i wanted a winged car (which makes no sense to me at all) and because i am whiny baby over $30K. but, it is still a GT3 touring and i love the car and i brings a smile to my face every time i drive it.

no one knows for sure. expected through at least 2027 but that can change.
porsche AG has some real financial issues to deal with. objectively, you have to wonder if some of the new top minds they brought in are tripping *****. their CFO who was there for years made some really aggressive sales forecast numbers in key markets which is a huge mistake ... so you have to wonder if his analysts spent more time micro/macro-dosing then actual real market analysis.
what that means for us ... we pay for the 911.

Don't give up on the search. The "perfect" spec usually pops up right when you’re about to stop looking. We can always earn another dollar, but we can't buy back years of driving.
Chris Harris touched on what you mentioned in his podcast recently—basically saying life is too short to worry about fuel economy or depreciation if the car makes you happy. He’s more into older cars these days, which is a big shift from his time as the "young gun" test driver during the Matt LeBlanc years of Top Gear qwhen it was all about super cars. Time flies for all of us!

100% correct, agreed. i am kicking myself now over a $30K difference in trade / new over the holidays on a 992.2 that was spec'd near to what i would have done ... now some other ******* has the car. in retrospect, i just should have done it.

I've bought (and traded in) a lot of cars from my dealer, I believe I'm in the top 5 customers based on volume. Last year, I told him I want a winged 992.2 GT3 allocation, so that I can get a manual GT3. They sell their new GT cars at MSRP, but of course they go to top customers. I haven't been offered an allocation yet. So they're not that easy to get.

- 4.0 will not be on any car sold after November 2027.
- .2 GT3 RS will have turbos.
- Speedster/Cabrio will be announced in a few weeks.
- I'll be very surprised if we don't get a 4.0-RS-type swan song car to celebrate the end of the NA GT cars and the FA is not it.
It's all speculation until it happens.

yes.
i’ve been told the there will not be an S/T for the 992.2 series, instead, they will do a speedster and /or a GT2 RS to close out the 992 generation.
2027 things change.
but you have to remember, AP is a genius with car development but it just won’t be the same. no more 9K rpm, no more NA.
the new GT cars will be faster … but that is not what the GT series is all about for most people. they make a turbo for those guys.
all this bull **** tech in the cars just needs to slow WAY down as well.
