For those interested in the pricing discussion - here is the distribution of NA GT4 MSRP, taken late fall 2016, based on gmaki's database. Median MSRP was exactly 100k.

This thread doesn’t need 5 more months of speculation that’s for sure. Hoping the Goodwood reveal prediction is wrong.

Pretty consistent in the $95k-100k range. I’m guessing we’ll see the same trend with the 982 GT4.

You do realize they all copy from each other. That info has already been posted by others days ago on here. Please search.

Nicely optioned, but I would say my car was pretty much "mid-level" when it came to options, compared to higher MSRP's that I've seen.

Actually looks like top 10% under Gmaki's chart. Makes sense since LWB and PCCB were the largest big ticket items to option. My $92k MSRP car was bottom 12% or so!

It's funny, mine was 102MSRP (I bought used in 2017) without buckets or brakes (I specifically wanted neither.) And yet is the most stripped Porsche I've had in awhile. I can never even remember what options it has other than 18way sofas and fire extinguisher. Everything else on the car just seems to be standard issue car stuff. I need to go read the sticker again and see what I should be enjoying while I think about you poor suckers with the 90k cars who are somehow not blessed with the extra $12,000 worth of stuff the first guy ordered on this one.

In regards to the 3.8 comment, that article came up for the first time this morning on my cell phone.

Sorry bro, but some people don't spend 24/7 on this forum dissecting every post.
Give Mr. Go Kart Mozart (and others here) a break for a change. We are only 34 days into the New Year.
Besides, he did preface his post by saying, "Not sure if anyone has posted this already..."

No one liked the hall monitor during grade school bro.
And they still dont like him.

I remember when I decided to get serious about buying a GT4 back in the late Fall of 2017.
There were several cars at Porsche of San Diego that were up in the mid- $120k area with like 800 miles.
It's amazing how a first aid kit, fire extinguisher, sun visors in Alcantara, instrument surround in leather, door-sill guards in carbon fiber and illuminated, and Sirius XM can jack up the price by $12,000.

I recall one GT4 in particular at San Diego was totally loaded and came in at a mind-blowing $138,000.
I think it was yellow.

$138k would’ve had to be PTS. That’s a crazy MSRP. Anyone got a build sheet on a high MSRP GT4 over $125k?

I visibly laughed the first time I saw lit door sills but I sure wish I had those now.

My Turbo S had them and I thought they were so stupid. Then when I got the GT4 I was sad it didn't have them. Funny how such frivolous things can become part of the expected landscape.

Have them on my GT3, they look great... silly money but I like them. I would put them on either GT4 or the Spyder.

May as well stir the pot. The dealer with whom I have a deposit sent me the following:
