I appreciate everyone’s help. I went running to the dealer and they gave me some bull**** excuse that it was an end of month special. This was in December a week ago that we are talking about. They tried to raise it 5,000. So I said F U.

called about 30 dealerships, and found a bad *** GT3.

my birthday is in 5 days, looking forward to the GT3.

I read that the GTS is also getting a hybrid. Does this mean that they will drop the Turbo S and GTS ICE only versions?
The .2 tts will not roll out immediately anyways, so whenever the actual cutoff is, you're looking at fall of 2024 announcement as an MY 25 at the EARLIEST.

You should all do some research on how these hybrid batteries recharge themselves before getting all excited. Laferrari takes 15 minutes of performance driving to charge the battery which lasts 2-3 1/4 mile runs at most. Its not like the entire power number is available until gas tank runs dry. Its good for hero runs and yes off the line it will fill the torque gap but i think it wont be as consistent.

Details on that one? MSRP Sticker?, Miles? How much you paid for it?

Ugh, that’s a huge bummer if hybrid engines will only offer full power while the battery is charged. That’s why I’m rooting for hydrogen. Some day…….?

Sure, but when are you ever really using the full power of the car? Probably less than 10% of the time, if that.

The full power of the car will not last 1 full lap in VIR like a track.

Its also annoying to know you have this achilles heel.

Was gong to pull the trigger on a 2022 right around MSRP at Bellevue. Then I remembered how much I hate autonation and the python green was too bright for me. But it may be your cup of tea and it has CPO. I think they are asking $243k on a $239K build. Ask for Rob he’s the only good thing left there.
