What a rip off for what is basically a GTS.

At any P car in the 911 Carrera lineup, even the MSRP for a Cab is higher than the Coupe. Should be the other way around but obviously Porsche has to charge for the convertible mechanism, though the resale value of a Cab should and typically is less. Except in the case of some SE.

At sticker it would be a good buy… and it’s not just a GTS . You would never be able to duplicate this caron your own configuration.

If you’re not trying to preserve OEM parts you can get damn close in appearance and spirit. The America has no mechanical uniqueness. Mostly a matter of matching colors, trim and badges. The Spyder wheels for example are easy to have repainted. A PTS color on a regular GTS should come close. If you think the OEM badges are worth $100K, well then go right ahead with your $…..

First of all that $100,000 more unless you wanted to pay that over sticker. A fully option America is 225.000. Once again, that rim is original to this car only and the azure blue will no longer be available in any PORSCHE plus that weave stitching is very difficult to come by and of course no matter what you did to your configuration you’re still not an original America but if you don’t like the car, that’s a different story, but don’t tell me you can duplicate this car or close to and by the way, I just bought one sticker with delivery miles those boring colors silver white red black that’s for boring tastes

well, there is boring tastes and then there is bad tastes 😏

…but most of all taste is individual, so comparing them creates a null hypothesis.

Congratulations on getting one for sticker but my post was in regard to this thread with the link above where Porsche South Shore is asking $297 K for a ‘23.
