Thank you very much. Due to exchange rate I paid around 82K for the car.

Congrats! Beautiful as always!

I love the seller's reason for selling: If I weren't buying a GT3RS I would keep this one for life. Isn't every Porsche guy who sells the one he was going to keep forever only doing so because something else came along in 18 months that distracted him? :rofl: Everybody always seems so shocked when this happens to them.

Now... that said, I AM keeping my GT4 for life.

Actually, laugh at myself though I do, that is my for real plan. It's my favorite in the past 16 years, and I'm just going to ride this one on into the sunset.

Yes funny reason. I talked to him and dealer wanted the GT4 in order to give him allocation on GT3RS

Great looking car and spec (at least from my perspective).

82k plus ~2k to bring it into the US? That seems about right for a PP, light MSRP, 9k mile car.

Fun fact:
Porsche seems to consistently use a foreign exchange rate for pricing that’s well below actual. If you compare equivalent car msrp you will see it’s about a 15% rate, versus the actual 30+++% rate. This is why GT4 pricing in canada is still at or above Msrp.

Those of you who don’t mind cars that are driven 6mos of the year can get wicked cheap cars up here!!!!
