SMH! That price is going to cost you more than the markup, in the long run. But, somewhere out there, is someone with more money than sense, so good luck with the sale. I'm pretty sure your dealership does not need my money.

Just sell it for MSRP Ahole. It it was so hot you would have a lineup of buyers.
P.S. I'm sure you kept his deposit too so this is even more a douchebag move on your part to charge over MSRP.

Agreed - pretty myopic to mark up a car $20K.

+1 on avoiding this dealer moving forward.. At least give us some pictures to Cream over

Funny how no one comes to defend this dealer however there are plenty of other dealers on here doing the same crap but heaven for bid you speak poorly about their price gouging.

Double standards are hilarious.

Either all dealers charging over MSRP are stealers or not. Just because you have been on this forum forever it gives you the right to gouge without ridicule but if you are a new dealer you are not allowed.

Personally put them all on the stealership list and don't buy anything from any of them and they won't be able to sell higher than MSRP.

The current market will dictate the pricing of the vehicles, and if there's a drop in pricing we will adjust the price accordingly. I will undoubtedly bring everyone's thoughts and opinions on this subject matter to upper management. It's hard to defend myself as everyone has some valid points.

The market surely dictates used car prices? New car prices are listed on the MSRP sheet... no? In certain places, Europe...cough cough...it is illegal to do what you are doing on a new car. I get that you need to make a few bucks, no one on here will begrudge you that. You should have listed it as a used car and you would not be getting pounded the way you are currently. Some companies cant sell a new car at over MSRP...the way it should be. Good luck. You will sell the car. The rennlist market will probably find you a buyer but the majority of true Porsche enthusiasts will never touch your dealer again. Gaining one sale while losing 20. The end.

All this BS is why I gave up on buying a limited release Porsche and put a deposit on a BMW M2 @ MSRP

short term gain, long term loss.

I live in NJ and I'll never take my 996 Turbo to Jack Daniels for service and don't expect a call when I'm ready to replace it. Will recommend the same to everyone I know.

Just business, I'm sure you understand.

Looks like our friend GSinghJDPorsche has heard enough.

Personally, I do not begrudge anyone (dealer or otherwise) for asking or selling for whatever price will clear the market. Nor do I believe that MSRP is sacrosanct. After all, (1) the "S" stands for suggested and (2) the last time you bought a car below MSRP did you raise a similar stink about it? I doubt it.

What I do find outrageous about this post and sale ad is the incredulity of it. Even if the customer "got cold feet" are you saying that you had no other customers on your "list" who paid a deposit and were willing to take the car at MSRP (likely the price at which they understood or agreed to buy the car on which they placed a deposit), especially given the increasing likelihood that new GT4 allocations are scarce and may dry up?

Ask whatever price you want...but also honor your list, or don't bother creating one in the first place.

...On a slightly different take on this topic, the Internet has changed many things, mostly for the better, but one thing it's changed dramatically is to shrink the entire country such that anyone can source goods from anywhere and prices become more transparent. No doubt there was a time when your local Porsche dealer cared about developing relationships with local clientele; too bad it doesn't appear to be the case anymore, at least with some dealers.

Buyer of a 991 gt3 backed out of the order from a tristate porsche dealership. The person who ordered it introduced me to the dealer that then sold it to me at msrp. That is a classy move and the dealer is on my good dealer list.

You should offer the car to the next person on your list for msrp. And if you don't have a list, then perhaps demand isn't as high as you think, in which case it should be sold at msrp (or less).

I'm so outraged that I'll stop drinking Jack Daniels whiskey in protest.
