it really is. dealers must be going thru a massive amount of lube because they are doing it over and over and over again.

i constantly get text messages from dealers ... hey there - "wanna buy this used GT3 for $50K over MSRP" ... its a PTS (even though not your PTS .. and some old dude farted in it at least 5 times).

the current market is just a joke.

Exactly, total suckers market. Glad that I have owned and enjoyed a good number of Porsches and Z06s prior to the China Flu. Grease ball dealers can take their aviricious pricing and shove every bit of it.
$50,000 over sticker for a used car? Can't think of any rational reason why that is acceptable. The Porsche faithfull are welcome to every bit of that nonsense.

I am new to the brand. I have a Cayenne. But everyone that I know and their moms want a 911 GT3 or Turbo S or Targa. I truly believe that if you’re getting a sports car, the best experience is a manual tranny. That’s my opinion. I’ve never driven a 911 so I don’t know what I’m missing luckily. But yeah, I wouldn’t pay dealer markup. GT3 priced out online is $200k.

i would have agreed with you on the manual as well. the pdk is so good in the 992 cars i honestly could care less about the manual. i never think about it. my 997S was manual and was fun but the PDK has gone thru several revisions it is worth driving and driving fast to see which you prefer. but i daily drive my 911.

unless i could get an s/t i would always order pdk in every other model.

my wife has a Cayenne and it’s an amazing car.

I’m configuring the Targa right now. With a manual tranny, why won’t it let me add park assist with 3D surround view?

We only have the standard eHybrid Cayenne which isn’t the fastest but good enough. Maybe one day I’ll get the Turbo S eHybrid. Those don’t have any markups I don’t believe.

I was looking at used GTS models and I've seen 20k markup on 2 year old GTS that was tracked at PECATL. Terrible.

Keep in mind that listing a car for $229K is not the same thing as selling it for that price.
