Should I go for a winged car or a Touring with sport seats, folding rear seats, and a manual? Or maybe a stripped-down one with a wing, manual, sport seats and Clubsport — or even PDK?
5% off is real,

 

Would somebody please notify the dealers that the market is "crashing," because I'm seeing the exact same numbers from all the one's I'm approaching for an inventoried wing car.

 

While I doubt that prices are crashing, I went on Autotrader today and there are, gasp, 456 992 gt3s for sale and for 2026 there are 144. Is this historically consistent as far as availability?

 

"The 4.0 doesn't comply with Euro7 and there are hard dates by which production and sale of said engine must stop. The 4.0 will not be able to be sold past November 2027"

But their production line can keep running well into 2027 and even 2028 to supply the US market

 

Nope. They cannot be produced anywhere in the EU past November 2027, even for export.

 

Well Europe doesn't want them and China doesn't want them...so two more years of supply to the US could be 5-10k more GT3 variants here and into MY2028 before they turn off the spigot.

 

I read that if Euro 7 were to kill the motor, orders would have to stop in the middle to end of this year with the last deliveries in early 2027

 

This is the first time I've read they can't build the car for export past euro7. They certainly have made other models past EU regulations, for export, like the 718 and the cyber security issues.

 

maybe it was different because they were closing the entire plant

 

I don't think so, they actually moved production for 2 years to the VW plant and cranked them out

 

Thats exactly my point. They were able to move and continue production elsewhere before shutting down the plant

 

Didn't UStrojan do this thread like ten yers ago?

He's still waiting to be proven right.

 

Euro 7 does not mention export vehicles and only applies to vehicles sold, registered, or put into service in the EU.
Technically they could continue export production.

 

This is absolutely false information you are spreading. Euro 7 regulations do not ban cars from being built or exported after 2027, Euro 7 is strictly a European Union emissions standard that applies to vehicles being type-approved and sold in EU/EEA. There is no prohibition on manufacturing or exporting vehicles. You can do a simple google search, check chat GPT, just about anywhere you will find information that is consistently saying the same thing.

Euro 7 regulations specifically apply to new motor vehicles sold and registered in the European Union (EU).
The regulation sets emission limits for vehicles that are type-approved for sale within the EU, focusing on reducing pollution from exhaust, brakes, and tires for cars and vans (LDVs) from November 2026/2027 and trucks/buses (HDVs) from May 2028/2029.
Here is the breakdown regarding manufactured vs. exported cars:

• Sold in the EU: All new cars, vans, trucks, and buses sold and registered in the EU must comply with Euro 7 standards.
• Manufactured in the EU for Export: Vehicles manufactured in the EU but exported to third countries (outside the EU) do not need to meet Euro 7 standards, unless the destination country specifically requires them.

 

The current schedule is for non qualifying motors to cease production by November 2026 and cease to be sold by November 2027.

You're conflating cybersecurity regulations with emissions regulations. They are not the same.

I don't know what sources of information you guys are reviewing.
Sorry but AI is not reliable yet and I take whatever answers it spits out with a mound of salt.
Below is what Gemini said and though it's correct, I wouldn't trust it if I didn't have that info from legitimate sources.
Not my original source but here's a link from the European Automobile Manufacturer's Association where it clearly states that "The Euro 7 proposal means that certain vehicle models and segments could no longer be produced in the EU"

There are more complete texts (this is just a brief summary of points) but I don't have the time or inclination to find something to support what I said.
Or think whatever you want and we'll see come November, unless legislation is amended before then.
