Buy now $199000! MSRP is $145000 or so?

 

been there for a week now local guy here in scottsdale

 

That price is a pipe dream. Msrp if he is lucky.

 

wishful thinking with that price

 

I saw that one to. Of course the car could be here locally but none of the pics are taken here.

I wish these people who have so much greed in their eyes would seriously pull their heads out of their butts! And hopefully there isn't anyone out there stupid enough and with more money than brains to buy it.

 

1 of 3?
I have seen more than 3 white with Red.....he is not only pipedreaming but also including incorrect data......

 

sorry to hijack - does anyone know this RS?

The car on ebay looks to me like the one that arrived at Porsche Omaha last month. The pictures are the same. The dealer had called me asking if i wanted to buy the car because the owner wanted to flip it for a profit. I obviously turned that down. Looks like he may have sold it to a broker .. lame.

Shine the light on the roaches I say-

A dealer can sell for what ever price they want to and the buying public has every right to voice an opinion of that price.

 

these dealers are like wall street market maker scum.
they feigure if they all start posting up pipe dream prices, people will think that is infact the market. they feel they can make the market.

i say screw them. resist the urge! trust me, any of us who made the mistake of paying up last go-around with the 997.1s can most assuredly tell you that, while it doesnt change the fantastic nature of the car, the prices WILL retreat.

997.1 RS's were 20, 25, 35 over. i rmemeber some dudes paying 50 over!!
how they are, well 50 under. thats a $100,000 loss on a $190 purchase price, for a car that had an msrp of $158k. losing $100k on a $158 k car is rough as heck.

dont bite. sit tight. they'll get smart and realize that MSRP offers very nice profit and is where the manufacturer suggests they retail price the car.

 

Hmm... That sounds like the same dealer that offered me 2% off MSRP on a Cayman S!

If they can gouge 25% on an RS, I should be able to get 20% off the Cayman, now!

 

You guys are looking at this all wrong...all they are doing is making your stuff more valuable. Don't forget that you are part of a group that is very well educated and tend to use the cars for track use as a specific tool. There are many out there that did not even know the car was coming but can afford to "catch up" to the curve by paying more. Consider it their "attention deficit cost" and be happy someone out there thinks your car is worth more than you do.

 

If that car's at Porsche of Omaha, they'll have thousands of Berkshire investors in town for the investors meetings. Perhaps all the "new money" types with split B shares will be feeling like a little "reward" for themselves.
