You know who you should all hate for flipping cars?

Porsche dealerships. I spent a solid chunk of my day trying to find a new 911 GT2 RS w/Weissach package that’s landed for a client. The lowest price point I got, for the few landed or landing this month, was $175k over MSRP.

DISCUSSION (25)

Fuuuuuuuck that! I’d probably ask to test drive the most expensive thing they’d let out, and back it straight through their showroom window in response. Whoops.

There’s a dealer here advertising a $100k markup for a Dodge Challenger Demon.

Is it a red one in like NY? I know that exact car you’re talking about

I already do. I wish selling/buying cars would be a non profit hobby.

The picture looks suspicious . The car has German plates but steering on the right. Maybe possible but very weird.

Porsche might be the biggest scam going around. No matter what they do, people will over pay for them. Rare 1/50 911 with stripes? SOLD

Give it two months max and this price gouging will be dead

Yep, Porsche gouging is insane on the GT models.

On the flipside, it means that new and lightly used Turbo models are downright bargains.

“Bargins”

I took a brief trip through rennlist just to experience the madness that is off the menu paint and interior options. Once you’ve seen the pinnacle this aspirational pricing at POS is laughable.

$175k over MSRP? That’s absolutely insane!

Our local dealer just flipped a red Weissach for $500k.

“Expensive” and “Bargain” are not necessarily mutually exclusive.

Yep...that’s the going rate

Most were asking $200k over

A dealer by me just sold a 997 era GT2 RS for $500k. So I guess I’m not surprised

I’m gonna guess it’ s this one. Graham Rahal just bought a green one from here in Houston

From a finacial prospective they are doing a great job of taking a page out of Pagani’s playbook and just making special edition after special edition.

If you ever want to see an epic level dick- measuring contest, go to a PCA concours event. Just a sickening number of these with less than 2k miles on the clock .

There should be enough links buried in those 250 pages to kill a few weeks at work. Favorite part was the thematic fuckery with nearly identical paint frogs which repeats itself. Deep in your mind you know the guy taking curated photos is switching them around before digging back in with utter seriousness.

Edit: Pick a green any green. Step right up and try your luck.

Not on Porsches in general. It’s been going on for years.

I have trouble comprehending even buying a car that expensive, let alone a car that’s that much over MSRP.

I guess I’m not the target market!

I was at Prestige Imports in Miami last week and they had one in for ~ $510 ,000
