Default 997 GTS Heavy Discounts

Does anyone know why both new and used 2012 GTSs are being so heavily discounts?

I'm considering trading my 2010 C2S Coupe for one. When I take it in for service I'll see what deal I can make.

I wouldn't consider 10% heavy discounting, but anything above 15% is attractive.

I agree. I bought my 2012 GTS, brand new, last June with a 10% discount. Should be able to do better now.

That's funny. Not quite on-board with the 991 it seems.
