sleazius Posted 10January Report Share Posted 10January Someone might be desperate enough. You'd have to think the days of overs like this are well and truly cooked though. 911rox 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
911rox Posted 10January Report Share Posted 10January Pretty certain it's the same RS that was for sale last month and apparently sold in a day... Same price, same dealer. Clearly somebody came to their senses.... tomk86 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JB911 Posted 10January Report Share Posted 10January Well clearly didn't sell - that's insane money!! 😱 Ad should start off with "Looking for cashed-up idiots out there" 😩 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JWM Posted 11January Report Share Posted 11January Unless Porsche snap and say no more ICE tomorrow, I can’t see any future other than used supply of these being wayyyy higher than demand in the years to come … Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know how many electric cars you've driven but the excitement is sorely lacking imo, at least for road use anyway. I can see a future where peak ice cars (which I'd argue is prior to the 992) get dearer and dearer over time. LeeM 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might change one day but I dunno, not in ways where I wouldn’t always want an ICE in the garage as well I suspect. Interesting question as to whether peak ICE 911 is behind or in front of us!

911rox Posted 24January Report Share Posted 24January Case in point for how off the mark 992 GT3 sellers are when a Porsche dealership is undercutting most of them whilst still being $30k+ over true market...

If I'd won the $150m I'd buy a place in Germany, buy a sh!tload of cars including the RS there and satellite from racetrack to racetrack throughout Europe.

If it was a 993 GT2 I'd be interested 👍 911rox 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sleazius Posted 24January Report Share Posted 24January I feel you…. my overs would be going on a heritage pack 991.2 Speedster, and then I’d be on the blower about that blue 993 turbo.

Re: flippers, speculators, finance, corrections, etc ... this got discussed on the latest Curmudgeon Show (this link goes to the spot they started on this topic). As well as issuing a "fuck you" to the flippers, they talked about how it has been happening in the US now (especially with GT Porsche cars) and, interestingly, that it happened before ... Apparently there was a huge run up in 1989, where people were buying and flipping stuff that would go for 3X the price (example was Testarossa's that were $100k msrp selling for $300k) and how it came crashing back to earth in 1990 and some people who got seriously burnt ... I didn't know this (I was only 8 😅) so it was quite interesting to hear. Did that happen here as well around that time, or was it just a US thing? Good show in general btw. I always liked Camissa's videos / reviews and this podcast with Derek is usually pretty interesting. A couple weeks ago they were talking about where "peak 911" was and that it might be 997 ... 911rox and micknine01 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bring on a crash! Long overdue for a correction in the market 😁 Yep, I'd agree with the suggestion that 997 was probably the peak of the modern era of 911.

Every version since and probably forever on has been a Volkswagen conglomerate marketing/hype car. Even the new Macan EV being launched tonight will run off the same platform as an Audi and prob Volkswagen. Will people care about the 997 being the final generation that was 100% Porsche, I wonder? sjm and 911rox 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only those generations who experienced Porsche pre VW and the 997... I don't expect subsequent generations to care too much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
