Crappy economy with an uncertain future, add in election year and the ????s that brings (especially with no strong contender from the GOP to fight the moronic spender in office)

Ahh wish I saw this before, taking delivery of a 991 S this week, but your car would have been a strong contender. I'm also local to you!!

I'm keeping it in mind but will need a few weeks before I can purchase-do you have a DME printout you can send me?
Thanks

I will get a DME once I have serious buyer who is ready to send a deposit. Then I will schedule a full PPI with DME for the buyer, (Hendrick Porsche) Too many data collectors, not enough buyers. (Last DME shows no over revs in any range.)

My first reaction is: here is a great value on a GT3 and it hasn't yet sold, but if I am to believe what I read in other posts, people can't spend enough money on an RS? Like $40k-$50k more? If this is truly happening, then I admit to being dumbfounded.

Some of us, Mooty and me for example, share your pain with dealing with the tire kickers and professional shoppers who will request all kinds of pieces of paper. A serious buyer will eventually pop up and the deal will happen very quickly. Keep the faith

Might want to do a $99,999 Dog Days Of Summer special just to make the number look pretty? And pop a few pictures up in a RL Cars For Sale ad.

Best of luck!

PS- Just saw your sig, BOSS 302 baby! So hot. If my 4.0 had sold I was buying a 302R to replace it. Incredible value in a track car.

Thanks Savyboy for the encouragement! I am baffled as well. 997 GTS asking prices are higher than my GT3!

Mooty is easy....tell him his car is for sale.....even if it is not

Wire money without asking, when he gets money make him ship car

No PPI or pictures necessary

AHH Mark, as a Porsche dealer you now see what I have to deal with daily.

Ricster,

I am sure you have some good stories to share!

Two weeks ago a "well informed" prospect called and asked if my GT3 had the Bose Sound Option, as he really wanted this. I said no, but it has the Mezger sound system! He said that no Bose was a deal breaker!

He also asked if there is a lot of road noise in the cabin. I said there is no road noise, unless the car is moving! I guess I will never make it in the Porsche Sales Dept!

Nice spec for the "gentleman" GT3 driver. All the goodies to make it a perfect grocery getter while having the heart of a race car which you can track every now and then. It looks beautiful!

Sounds like that guy needs a never-driven-in-the-rain Carrera with two sport chronos. GLWS.
