A bunch who probably drive around with pampers to wipe down the dust that falls on their precious mass produced cars.

If they even drive their cars at all... to retain precious precious value on their investment.

less suspension talk, more deals

If only you saw my car . . . It gets bathed every time it gets serviced and was extra lucky a month ago when Porsche dealership washed it for me after putting on new tires.

Has anyone seen the car that started this whole discussion popped back up for sale (gorgeous white GTS manual coupe with *God forbid" the dreaded sport suspension)? Curious if was purchased by a flipper, the luckiest guy in 2019 or the dealer realized what they did and relisted?

Another GTS popped up at the dealer that has lent several cars to Doug De Muro recently:

https://www.cncexotics.com/details-2...2cs720982.html

They are asking $110k and it has the "dreaded" sport suspension.

Pfft...sport suspension should discount it $50k. i wouldn't pay a penny over $60k!

EDIT: You don't see the clear taillight option very often. Interesting.

For once, I was thinking this was the perfect build with only 5,000 miles, red dials, red chrono. red seats belts and the only thing missing was red stitching which requires full leather.

This is a unicorn time capsule car so someone may pay that.

Being informed as of yesterday the perceived differences between GTS and S suspension is just that, a perceived difference or the human mind thinking/wanting it to be special or better. According to this guy who works for factory and did a bit research (so he said) . . . sport suspension is a good option to have . . .

Lol, don't shoot me though . . . I am just the messenger here.

I wouldn't personally pay that for that car. So their market is 8 billion people minus one. People go batty for super low mileage and the market price is whatever someone is willing to pay. In my mind a nice clean manual GTS 2 coupe should be somewhere around $75-80k.

who knows. I would think since it’s 4wd it would be less likely, but this is going to get bought by someone who treats this as an investment as opposed to a car that you actually drive in.
