I love it when dealers and owners tell me it is a "collectable" or "rare". If they are so "rare", why is it I see Trader full of them?
Strange that owners only want to put a few hundred kilometers on one. Must be a terrible car. LOL

An early 60s Ferrari 250 GTO is rare and collectable. A 2018 is not. LOL

So you want a huge meltdown that will depress car prices and allow you to buy a GT3 at MSRP but will have far reaching consequences if you have investments or own your home?

You mean the one with a PRICE REDUCED TO SELL!!! for $238,888? They have a way to go. (roll eyes icon)

What options does it have for $75,588 (from an MSRP of $163,300).

Why would I spend that?

Why would I pay more than MSRP. Do you buy stocks at their "peak"?

who cares what MSRP is. It’s an arbitrary number. You should pay what you feel comfortable paying. People in the U.S. aren’t as fixated by ADM like Canadians. Or you can do what other people who couldn’t get an allocation did (like me) - buy something else rather than moping around about it.

Americans don't worry about MSRP simply because nobody in business there prices items that high. It why I do most of my shopping stateside instead of getting ripped off up here.

Not worried about it. Got a car and lots of motorcycles. If something comes up, great, if not, who cares.

Best move I ever made in my life.

It was a clean example when I bought it (yes, had to give it my kind of cleaning though) but now it is ultra-mint above the floor pan and also below (its a toy).

I was thinking of Al as I drove down the 401 from Pfaff. Nice new dealership as the last time I was there they were in Woodbridge. Not impressed with how forthcoming they are about their used vehicles though and that is twice now.

Thats for sure. These cars or any Porsche should be sold to true Porsche people, not some Porsche poseur.

The standard MO on these barely used resale threads is that he seller has an incoming .2RS.

Nope, always had an allocation.
Pfaff does not ask me to sell the car back to them.

I have RS coming not keeping both.
