Default GT3RS available Bay Area

For anyone still searching.... There's green RS at Fletcher Jones Porsche, Fremont. Gorgeous car, but is heavily loaded with many/most options. I think he said the MSRP was $151K or so. Of course they're looking for another $35K on top of that.

If you buy it, all I ask is a ride in it!

when i talked to them, they wanted 50k over.

carlsen has a black and an orange one on the floor and MAY be more wallet friendly. talk to my bud, gary Q, and say crazy john h sent you there and demand a john h discount.

Fremont must have sold the orange one, they wanted 185k for it and 195k for the green. There is an orange one at Stevens Creek as well.

Also two white GT3's at Carlsen for around 135k last week.

The key is "asking" price. They have a high asking price in case someone is foolish enough to write them a check for that amount. What they would actually take for the car is going to be another number but they surely paid over MSRP themselves to get these cars.

The two Fremont cars where they're only two allocated cars.

And they told me in January that they were going to the highest bidder.

At least they are consistent. They told me the same.

Seems they are sticking to their guns. I decided not to play that game and get a regular GT3 for MSRP.

I find it funny that PORSHCE dealers all over the country have one or more RS's on lots wth 180K++ asking prices. Whist many customers with unfilled deposit didnt even get a whiff of one. HOW DID THAT Happen? Dont you just love how our dealers help us out? I dont think the dealers would sell each other their allocations or cars, so they could say they didnt get the car -they had to buy it.
DO YOU??

Default RS

This guy has at least 4 RS cars. He gave me great money for a Porsche I sold to him.
