At $22K over I would likely take a loss or at best break even due to it being such an early production car. It's not a driver for me. It would be a flip. Unless I am making a big profit it's just not worth the hassle. I am going to pass.

We also need to take into account that UK is RHD market with fewer cars manufactured, I believe UK 991 GT3 allocation was initially 100 cars, but just over this was eventually delivered. Due to the lack of used 'stock', market here pushes prices up far higher than some other markets (e.g. NA). Stating the obvious, but buying a car to turn a quick profit is always high risk, however, if you choose to extract some value by driving it you will reduce your potential margin. There are no right or wrong answers to ColdList's question, anyone of us in that position just needs to be prepared to deal with the consequences. The only guarantee in this game is that Porsche will make a profit. Nuts (w.r.t. turning away some genuine customers) - yes, but also a good business model. Let's face it, they don't have to spend much on marketing... Last edited by Dionysus; 03-11-2015 at 07:15 AM.. |

Not to thread resurrect, but here we are almost a year later. Lots of these RS have sold for 100k over MSRP.
Did Porsche screw up with this 918VIP program? Lots of owners just flipping them for big money it seems. |

My customer traded his GT3 in for MSRP with 3k miles and paid $75k over sticker for his RS. "Good deal" lol
