There have been GT3s posted here at MSRP from dealers when people dropped spots. So the price will come down some soon enough.
no flames, please - just my humble opinion.

LOL- I know bud!
Actually we sold ours at MSRP. I think paying more then MSRP on this car would be a little stupid- UNLESS you 1000% plan on keeping the car longer then say, 4 or 5 years. But even then, it shouldn't be excessive. I saw someone here is selling theirs- but you have to pay their sales tax too. I think that's total BS and that's their cost of doing business. I really don't feel that's the market on that car.
I stand pat @ or slightly above MSRP for GT3. Otherwise, I'd wait another month or so. See what shakes out....
that's my educated .02 cents!

Quite simply. Yes.

that's my educated .02 cents!Not a "here and now" situation but I think it indicates that you should be able to buy one at MSRP. The dealers aren't stupid, they know when that first shot of customers that aren't price sensitive is getting used up.

You could easily drive it for a season, and sell it for close to MSRP or full sticker. IMO.

MSRP is a fair makert value for that car. Turbo's are still going for sticker- almost a full year out of the box.
