Sadly, someone will probably pay it. I love Porsche but the ADM game with the hard to get cars just means I'll never actually get one.

i remember 5-10 years ago at any Porsche dealer they were discounting 5-10% all cars those days will definitely be back one day...no worries this whole 'YOLO' era of buying things is limited!

GT cars have never been discounted and limited editions like the Sport Classic and Dakar never will be either. The production is limited enough that there will always be people willing to pay big ADMs because they see what cars like the Speedster are still trading for.

That dope can keep it.
It's just another car for the rich even at MSRP anyway. No wonder kids these days don't get into cars. They can't afford anything worth a crap |

gotta love the
$289,900 MSRP $250,000 Market Value yet still want to charge you an additional $250,000 dealer mark up and now it's $539,000 for a car that has a "market value" of "$250,000" lmfao and people mad at Tesla for killing off the dealership way of doing business |

Just thought it was funny that they put the term "market value $250,000" Then had final price at $539,000 poor choice of wording their window sticker, that's all Must be nice to be able to write a check for those kinda toys and not lose a penny on it and most likely make a few bucks on it |

Rolex also makes a great product that holds its value, much like a Porsche. I’d say that’s a good thing personally. Brand loyalty for both is strong for good reason.

I looked at getting a 992 when I got the F90 in October, but it’s crap like this that put me off the brand tbh. Much like Rolex. What was it Madonna sang once…..

Well, that is a collector car and the people who collect them won't even know there was a markup because their broker will be picking it up for them

Any markup is ridiculous....even a $1. It's MSRP or below for me.
At this level, it's sort of expected for those shopping to be able to toss around money as if it's toilet paper. Where I get upset is with cars that are supposed to be marketed to the "budget" crowd; especially those that are targeted to the young enthusiast. It's absolutely ridiculous that these cars are not sold at MSRP and manufacturers are not holding dealerships accountable. Two cars come to mind: Civic Type R and GR Corolla. No wonder the enthusiast market is dying off. |

I only paid MSRP for a car once in my life and it was because of an insane trade that was falsely inflated due to Covid... i would never buy a car without at least 5% off again lol.
This is just Porsche playing with people's emotions, they can go and f themselves... just like any markups and long waits on M cars which will soon disappear as we watch the economy go in the toilet.

I'm sure I'd take look at the SC if I ever saw one in real life but I'd probably find an 88 Porsche 944 turbo more interesting.

Second hand Rolex market is down since peak in March. For instance trading value one of biggest "flex" watches, Daytona is down 36%. Overall Rolex values are down 13% and dropping. New watches are becoming increasing easier to get. The very long wait times are in the past. On the other hand GT allocations are still near impossible to get.
