By the time MSRP comes to the 992.2 GT3, the price will be about 50K higher. LOL.

Good luck!

 

I love your optimism

That won’t happen. I wish it would, but it won’t.

 

That's okay, at least I know that I won't be filling the pockets of stealerships without reason, and, everyone will be paying the same.

MSRP is coming before end of year. Hurrah!!!!

 

Based on what? There are boatloads of GT3s making their way to the various ports of USA. I think my issue will be that there will be so many to choose from that my brain won't be able to pick one.

 

I've been hearing that for 10 years...so many people "waiting" for MSRP and then sitting on the sidelines for years instead of driving the car they want.

I get it, everyone is comfortable with different things financially but I don't understand the obsession with a 10% price swing for a car you plan on having for several years...amortized over length of ownership it's not that significant. For many people at this level, a $30k ADM accounts to a small swing in their portfolio in a given day. To many, that's not worth waiting years for the car you want, passing on the "perfect" spec, etc...but for some I understand it's a meaningful financial hit (granted we also see many people "stretching" for these cars, which I would guess psychologically are many of the folks trying to convince themselves MSRP is coming).

Rennlist is not representative of the overall market, especially in large markets like yours (Bay Area) where many people are happy to drop a few extra thousand to get what they want. Reality is there are plenty of big fish out there that will stabilize things before these cars hit MSRP. But I'll be sure to check back in a few months and see how your prediction is doing...and if you bought a car yet.

 

Big fish love exclusivity. At current supply levels, there is no scarcity, there are fewer Civic Type Rs for sale. As MSRP and inventory creeps up, big fish will look for big fish cars. And the point is the Porsche raised MSRP to take a bigger chunk of the pie. Raising MSRP has to mean ADM has to drop. And it wasn't a small hike in MSRP.

In the Bay Area, there are many folks that are wondering whether they should be dropping $350k on a GT3. I'm a little fish but I hang out around some big fish and they are not feeling it anymore. All anecdotal so means nothing.

 

Early adopters always pay an ADM. It's not a need or a desire to pay it. Super happy that you can wait...hopefully, a car will be there when you are able to buy one.

 

When the 992.2 GT3's reach MSRP. You do know that it will have a downward effect on market pricing on 992.1, 991.2 and 991.1, etc.?

Again hope is not a plan....keep dreaming for MSRP by yearend. If that were to happen, the stock market will have tanked and many buyers will be looking to live rather than pursue buying any GT3...

Of course, as you have stated the bigger fish that you hang out with....this will probably not be their situation.

End of criticisms, I have had mine since last July. I hope you will get yours whenever you will have reached price equilibrium between want and market pricing.

 

You can talk about supply and demand over and over, but some folks just don't get it. That's high school econ.

 

High school econ is more advanced than the middle school econ peddling ADM. Middle school ADM peddlers won't get it either.

 

 

ADM

 

For the person saying the demand far outweighs the supply…In my experience when the ADM goes away the demand also magically disappears.

997.2 gt3
991.2 gt3
718 gt4rs

all these cars had adms early and then they disappeared and went into big discounts

 

Hahahaha. Who let the BMW guy living in his parents house into the 992 GT3 Forum?
