Freshly installed PPF, Ceramic coating, and tint. Premier Protective Films, Fremont CA. Very please with the work.

Considering he lowered his car, by default fitment of some sort was a consideration. In either case it was just an inquiry made in the interest of curiosity. You don’t need to speak for him.

@M3Inline6 Speaking for myself, with same wheel. Had a similar comment to yours when I posted my pics initially in another thread from another member. Your comment was the politest “ I’m surprised you did to do something different”. Others not so much.

And there are always spacers if we want to get more aggressive as @tourenwagen did with his cabriolet and Carrera T. Which was my inspiration for choosing my config, but stayed with standard fitment with custom painted centers on mine.

His car looks really good. I went with ET 37/ET 57 for my Classics, but I wanted deep lips. I was running spacers with my OEM wheels.

Default 992 gt3 rs

I need your valuable input on a dilemma I'm facing. I've got the chance to get my hands on a 992 GT3 RS, but here's the catch: my dealer is asking for $160k over MSRP, bringing the total to a hefty $460,000. However, they're throwing in some enticing extras like PPF, satin black wrap, roll cage, and black keys for free.

Originally, I was lined up for an allocation, but now it seems the option on the table is a new car already built with around 70 miles on it. I'm torn between pulling the trigger on this deal or waiting it out in hopes that prices will eventually come down.

Your insights and experiences would be immensely helpful in guiding my decision. Thanks in advance for your input!

Do you enjoy setting money on fire? Do you have a lot of it? If yes to both, buy it.

MSRP on GT cars, especially GT3RS is not relevant in today’s market. Given limited availability these models are selling in this price range. If you got the money and want it, enjoy. May try for more direct feedback in the GT3 threads. Video from Carwow below discussing market pricing on GT3RS with 2 dealers.

If you can burn 200k but can't make your own decisions like a grown *** man without consulting a forum of strangers, that's on you bro.

First, the RS is not a luxurious ride. Quite the contrary; Stiff and sporty. Second, your question could be viewed as a tad egotistical, but that's just from where I sit on the bus.

...or, don't be impatient and wait for the allocation.

Let's do the math here and your wording. They aren't throwing anything in for free. You are paying for it given that you're paying $160k over. IDK if you've done any research but you should be able to get one at 100k over with not much legwork.

But hey. Your money. If you want it and are comfortable with the deal, go for it and enjoy.

I don’t think it is worth my valuable brain cells to take you seriously. But hey, let me give you a tip since your brain seems to be in desperate need of one: instead of wasting your time trying to insult someone who's clearly out of your league, why don't you invest that energy in something productive.Just saying
