not gonna lie, had me in the first half of this thread

 

When looking at what a dealership, any dealership not just Porsche, shows they have on-line or what a salesperson says they have over the phone may or may not bear any resemblance to what they actually have on hand.
The ONLY way to know for sure what a dealer has on hand and for sale (no buyer presently) is to go to that dealer, in person, put your hand on a car with the salesperson there and tell them you are a cash buyer and you want to buy it right now. Then and only then will know know: A.) What car(s) they have on hand and B.) Which of the cars they do have on hand are actually available for sale.

 

So let me get this straight 007 you live 2 hours away from the dealer that you’re talking about?

 

So said "available" new 991's on their website are all mock-up pictures, NOT actual photos of the vehicles in their possession. Because they don't have possession.

 

Pics or didnt happen

 

Exactly.
Never mind that where you live (Lincoln) is a mere 10 miles by car from the dealership in Rocklin.
I'm on Team Arini too.

 

Make it a December to Remember.

 

One car listed is a T for $165k!! Someone checked just about every possible box for that.

 

Rennlist meetup at NIello Porsche, tomorrow, Saturday @ 11 a.m.

Wally's Cafe gyros (best in Rocklin) will be served. @double-o-seven is buying.

 

I heard all of the tech bros bought up the inventory on the drive up to Martis over Thanksgiving. They had to justify the reason for not flying.

 

I just called them, spoke to Barry. Those cars were for sale at some point, all except two are sold, 15-25K ADM depending on where you live.

 

Classic. Those that don't have a 992 yet but want one are talking about pricing falling and sometimes/possibly presenting skewed facts to try to make that a reality. Is the market softening - yes but there is still a wait for 992 allocations and certainly not at anything less than MSRP. Most dealers are still demanding an ADM (all models). Most people who can afford an 911 are not impacted by interest rates. Given that even the 911 is likely going hybrid sooner vs later is also keeping demand strong.

 

Delicious beef and lamb kabobs too!

 

The days of ADM on anything other than GT cars are finally leaving, I think. Just look at auctions on cars & bids for just about anything.

Anyone with sense knew this was coming; we just all thought it would happen gradually starting 6-9 months ago and would track alongside interest rate hikes. It turns out all that pent-up demand held out a little longer, but the normalization started more like two months ago and has been rapid.

 

Well there you go...
