Why did everyone saddle such a great car with Front Lift System? Somebody needs to tell the dealer to at least lower the lift for the car. Ugh.

To be fair, there's a reserve that's somewhere north of $198k. But, it is in a geographically desirable location for cheaters.

my bad. I wrongly assumed (after not reading carefully) that that was the buy-now-price.

A few pounds (12kg? if I recall) added to the front of a 911 hardly hurts;-)

A great car but after a car has been out awhile demand begins to cool.

25 pounds or so in the front probably improves the weight distribution

Quit knocking the front lift already. It is a great feature for a car driven to and from the track on real roads. Tired of replacing front strip on my 996 gt3 and rs 3.8. It is a great option to have on the 4.0.
