I was wrong, you guys were right

The key idea in using the Bre-X example was it was one persons, or group of persons false truth that became the basis for the other persons fact - and it went on and on and on and on. Kind of like we are seeing with RS's being sold at $50K over MSRP.

[QUOTE=allegretto][QUOTE=RR]Dudes, ask yourself. Why don't oil companies pump as much oil as possible? They are profit oriented just like Porsche. More oil would mean more sales wouldn't it? Obviously we all know the answer to that.
As a matter of fact, from the context of what you are writing I am near-certain that you do not know the answer to that. There are so many divergences in the markets for petroleum and autos that the two commodoties are not at all similar. Nor is the profit structure.
I'm with you on the thought that folks want what they cannot have even more once they learn they cannot have it, but the market for global resources is somewhat more complex than the market for RS's.
[FONT=Trebuchet MS]Porsche in Germany told us quite a while back that there will be 2008 deliveries of 997 GT3 RS but ALL cars will be built in 2007 and that will be the end of the run.[/FONT]

RR, you worried and worried about buying an RS.
you got one and love the car!
now you're going to worry yourself to death about porsche making more RS's?

btw, i know several people that have paid 20k plus over for an RS.
that's real demand, not perceived!
being the tightwad i am, i only offered 11k over and was turned down by
phil in AL (glad now)
