It's a free market economy guys. It sounds like these guys also paid over MSRP to acquire the car and who here wouldn't sell their car for as much as they could?? Someday most of you will sell your Porsche's too...and want as much as you can get for them. Probably more than some people think they're worth. Just sayin.

i am with you on principal but ....
it took me over 10 years to buy a house. not b/c i didn't have moeny but b/c my principal was that if asking is x, i will only pay X-y. i needed to haggle. everyone else here pays over asking some times 25-35% over asking (and that's not a small amount when a 3 bed room 2000sf home is $1.75MM, btw that's the cheap part of town. my place is smaller than that, i park my car in the bed room and sleep in the car b/c bed wont fit) oh and they sell in a month or less. with that principal i was homeless for a decade. i only got my wish b/c mkt tanked in 08, so i paid asking instead of over.
i am not saying paying over is smart. but sometimes, the environment forces you to do things....
you and i are a bit too mature for FB, GOOG and such.... ti's the young bucks who makes $3MM a year eating hot pockets and doing whatever it is GOOG and FB do.

. Am I the only one here on RL that would keep this car forever? Are you (RS owners) really loyal to the brand or just trying to get the car for a profit? I have a buddy that just got his RS on Monday and I'm sure he will sell it before Thanksgiving. What's is really going on?
That being said, I'm already first on my dealer allocation list for the upcoming GT2.

Each version of the GT3 comes with a payoff and a trade off. This one here seems to have a redline and weight trade off versus a performance and handling payoff based on RL opinions. Why not hold on to this car because we all know the next one may have something done to it that you may not really like. Then you may regret the money you took and end up paying more to get it back (7.2 RS owners).

^Yes it seems like a few dealers are trying to make the market. On the other side they are also taking the risk when the market starts heading south. Compared to current pricing in LA this is a fair price.
I want a 991RS but will not pay 308k. I would probably be a buyer in the mid 200's. I have been offered a few cars but none have been less than 100k over MSRP. That is for cars on the ground.

1) ~ Half the participants in for sale threads are enthusiasts thinking of their next purchase and hoping they will be able to afford it when the time comes. They can be identified by commenting on flippers and dealers they view as price gougers, with comments like "It won't sell at that price", or "hope it doesn't sell". They may be the ones who comment on reasonable priced cars with "PM sent".
2) ~ Half the participants are financially motivated flippers, dealers, and those who are hoping to retire on the proceeds of selling their car (aka former enthusiasts
). They are the ones who post comments on wildly overpriced ads like, "Great price!, Less than the one that sold last week in Dumass****istan!", "this one will sell quickly!", or "I hope you get that price, since I have one like it". And they add comments like "Your price is too low!" or "Your leaving $200,000 on the table!" to the more modestly priced copies of popular cars.Fun to watch usually.

I find it repulsive that a Porsche dealer is selling anything over Msrp. Many do it but not all. There are several dealers that don't suck the blood out of their good customers. Those are the dealers I give my money to. That said good luck with the sale.

But it's just smart business to get as much money as you can.
