Demand in Europe has significantly dried up. Dealers have 10+ TT/TTS in stock so US is getting those free slots, which is great as it will get rid of this ADM nonsense, I hope.

There is this concept where, if you want to buy something, you just go ahead and buy it at MSRP or lower. And then as you use it and it gets old and replaced by newer models, it depreciates.

But again, if your a Porsche fan why to you want your purchase to depreciate? I know Porsche depreciation is probably a top 3 as far as less depreciation annually but to slam people for asking over MSRP makes no sense. People are buying TT/TTS for well over MSRP so let them.

Are you serious?

You may want to buy more Porsches in the future, and not have to beg and plead and pay ADM to get them.

So what you are saying is you're hoping Porsches lose value in the market place so prices come down? As a Porsche enthusiast that makes sense.

I give up. You're either trolling or clueless.

Porsche is NOT asking over MSRP, the dealers and resellers are. Demand far exceeding supply has pushed prices up, but that imbalance is not likely to last.

Did not know you can buy directly from Porsche-ha...obviously I was referring to dealers. This "imbalance" seems to be the norm moving forward as I feel Porsche prefers the boutique style selling versus others like BMW all about volume. I prefer Porsche approach,

Got contacted today, have 2 days to submit my build with expected delivery the end of February for coupe TTS.

i just bought myself a “holdover car” as I thought I would be waiting another year or two.

Thanks. I too am juggling, I did not expect the call.
